What it is about
These cards have all of the standard playing card values and suits. But there's a twist! Each card also includes a 6-piece polyhedral dice set, a coin flip (heads/tails), and a random number between 1 & 104. I intend to add a second deck to this project in the near future. It will fill out the random number set, as well as add more dice roll variations. I love simplicity and efficiency. This document is designed to be printed 2-sided at 100% scale on US Letter, and cut down into cards without worrying about cutting away any margins. Because of this, they come out slightly larger than standard playing cards, but I find them to be equally manageable in-hand. I highly recommend using a corner rounder on the cards after cutting them out - this makes them far more comfortable to hold in your hand. This is the very first project I've ever shared, and I welcome any constructive feedback you have to offer for ways to improve!
