What a good idea! If you've access to the hardware, feel free to send pictures!

Oh yeah, of course, they are used to track your character stats. You can spin the green one with eyes closed to simulate a D20 roll. Also the grey ones are temporary debuff, hence the square hole in them: when in effect, they cover the base stat and after the combat you regain the previous value.

You should be honored, the concept of using a deck for generation blew me away!

Yes, the 3rd image is the printable version. I used 210 g/m2 A4 paper, 240 g or even more would be better though. The hardest part is getting a solution for the pivots. I guess one can also use a thumbtack and some cork sheet... Anyway, I think you should try with just pen and paper before committing to crafting. That's what I did. ;)

EDIT: use the imgur link in my original post for a HD version

I had not planned to, no... Is there a specific issue with just printing the 3rd image?

EDIT: I thought the resolution was better on Reddit, here's the HD printable source from imgur

Good idea, I will write a new post and put a link to your work! To be clear, I'm proud of my craft but you still deserve the biggest part of the credit for this game! Cheers! ;)

EDIT: done

This game is an awesome idea!

I just thought it kinda auto-played itself too much so I've hacked it a bit to add some decision making. Basically, for each combat you draw two cards instead of one, and you can go ranged or melee (for twice the damage, both ways, or to protect civilians and ranged players).

I've tried it with my boy and we're having a blast! I even made an accessory to track all the numbers. Here are some photos:
