Hamlet Au’s New World Notes blog had a very nice write-up of Combat cards by Vidal Tripsa, and followed up with a post about the real life availability of the game. Excellent!

Here’s the (hopefully final) version of the PDF instructions that will ship with the real life cards in the very near future. Let me know if there are any final changes that need to be made.

I ordered the first batch of real life Combat Cards last week - Tuesday. I ordered, and talked to the POD man, and waited…
…then I didn’t hear anything for several days, so I sent an email… waited… then sent another and got a reply yesterday that felt like ice breaking as the spring thaw frees the river (I know it was just a week, but it felt long).
Finally: “Color sheet arrived. Your card designs look great. We’ve had a small backup on orders as everyone seemed to have wanted to put orders in within the same few day spread this past week. But we’re set up into our new retail store and better equipped now to handle larger volumes of card orders, so we’ll get caught up quickly. We’ll be ready to run your job by mid week.”
If the cards arrive looking the way I want them to look I’m going to spend about four hours looking at them lovingly and drinking champagne. Can’t wait. I feel badly that Doc won’t be able to see them when they arrive, though.

Updated Card Set with Instructions
They are much lower res than the real cards, of course, but should print easily and without needing any printer meddling (no resizing to fit). I left the corners squared so you can cut them more easily, but the real cards will have rounded corners. Cut with an X-acto knife or a paper cutter.
Be sure to let me know if I’ve left something out, or if there’s a mistake.
It looks like this on my printer set-up:
