OT: New game system: the Kilodeck, or Deck of a Thousand Cards



Well, sort of on topic too, barring a general game systems mailing list.

Note that the Kilodeck is Creative-Commons-licensed, and nanDECK
source is available.

I've created a new card game system called the Kilodeck, or Deck of a
Thousand Cards. I plan to include
a PDF of the 1000-card (really 1024-card) deck as a "feelie" with my
interactive fiction, Symbol Chess.

Here is a link to the first version. The first page explains the deck
in more detail.

http://www.ludism.org/~rwhe/kilodeck110208.pdf

The deck is broken into 16 64-card subdecks. Within each subdeck, all
cards have the same background and borders. Thus, if you don't want to
print out a 128-page document and cut out 1,024 cards for a
10-dimensional game system, it's easy enough to pick out a subdeck you
like for a 64-card, 6-dimensional game system.

The deck was created with nanDECK in about two days. Please note that
although the cards are 2.5x3.5", the page size is A4, not letter.

Any questions, please fire away.

Regards,

Ron H-E
