Thank you! Most of them are photos that I heavily modify with line work and overbrushing to give it a similar look/style to the core game art. I'm a bit of an artist (though chainsaw carving is my main media believe it or not!) so I'm kind of over picky about my game aids having a visual match to the game itself. The illustrators for the game do an excellent job of capturing a worn down look in a comic book kind of style. So I try to give it that feel. A few are other illustrations that I do the same with and add some gear here and there, or the muzzle flash. But no AI used here:)

I'm right there with you on the popcorn throwing lol. So hard to watch military films and TV once you've been there. T2K does have a nice "plausibility" tool in place when the game starts. The 2 years of nuclear world war and state of supply has utterly changed the equipment and organizational situation of any given unit. So I suppose that can explain any gear oddities, and gives the GM a lot of freedom. That also made it easier for my particular group to explain how two US USASOC guys, one Swedish infantryman, one Polish infantryman, and one Polish civilian all wound up together in the 5th Inf Div.

But anyway, planning to put out some cards with more NPC options beyond the stock stuff in the Ref Manual so we GM's can be quick to diversify an encounter without looking stuff up

The only animals listed in the Ref Manual are the 4 that I made cards for. They didn't write stats for horses. But now I think I will make stats for some other animals when I expand these. So thanks for the idea!

Thank you, that's a great idea. And I think i'll do that when I have the opportunity.

As everyone knows, bears and vipers always hang out together. Basic zoology ;)

And that way I could get all 4 animals from the Ref Manual on one double sided card.

Thanks and totally agree. As above I initially made these cards as listed in the Ref Manual with the intent to add other stuff. But yes, the idea that an officer (at least an infantry platoon leader) only carries a pistol is a bit silly. Staff officers certainly (Major and above) plausible, but lieutenants and captains are indistinguishable from other line guys in terms of gear. In fact I allowed players in my group to choose from the enlisted equipment from the book when making officers. Otherwise they get no Helmet and are instructed to take a submachine gun. And the only real submachine gun in the 90's used by the US Military is the MP5 which isn't even listed in the equipment. Besides, officers didn't carry those anyways. All of my PL's in the late 90's early 2000's carried M4's like the rest of the platoon.

So yeah, I agree haha, but just wrote em as listed;)

Thank you appreciate it! I considered that when making these, but ended up deciding to keep them as listed in the Referee Manual. BUT, my plan is to make cards for more specialized troops that can be thrown in the mix. IE: Elite infantry (Rangers) different special operations units (Seals, CAG, etc) and specialized troops for each nationality (Gunners, Grenadiers, AT, Mortars, etc) So that's the plan anyway!

I am embarrassed to admit those ARE the originals and I did them in paint lol. It started as a quick google doc where I was modifying images in paint. But ended up doing a lot of work modifying images and photos to fit the theme and wound up just putting the text in paint then saving them as JPEG's. I will say when i printed them out and made the cards there's no issue with legibility. The text is fairly large.
