| | Well that will probably go a long way towards reining in the (IMHO) inflated prices that the Epic cards are getting on eBay. Nice to see it. | |

| I am appreciative that it is up.
But, that is terrible production quality. They couldn't find someone in the graphics art world to actually produce the card in something? Or, at a minimum, scan it at a good resolution? For all of those people that can't access the cards, it would be nice if they could get a good quality.
I appreciate they are getting them up in a month. That is great, I'd just like to see high quality. | |

| | Do you have to use their PDF or can any scan of the card be used? If any can be used maybe someone with qualtiy equipment can give teh community a better version. (I make these comments based on others view of the card, I have not seen it myself.) | |

| I wouldn't hold my breath for tiles as they're soon to be essentially obsolete (sure people will probably still use them but rules/tournaments are heading to maps).
Same reason I wouldn't hold my breath over Chainmail updates (stupid, lousy Trog Captains I can't use....mutter, mutter).
I found a very nice scan of the Lolth card a couple of weeks ago on ebay (someone selling the card) and printed it out. I'll probably reprint using this version since it also has the back.
Very nice to see the WOTC peoples getting something done in an efficient manner. Brings great joy to all the land. | |

Great. How about talking to someone about improving the quality of the images in the PDF? WotC has the master images for these, after all. Just a think... | |

Why would you like the to stop doing so ?
I think it is a great asset to the community.
Go on WotC, keep the good work.
I do not want them to stop. they were going to do the same for tiles, but they were not very vigliant about it. | |

Quailty is fine imo. It's a card.
You have a nice pic on the original lolth card.

| | I'd guess they kept the dpi down so that printouts wouldn't be quite as nice as actual retailer kit issued cards. Just a thought. | |

| | I just traded a handfull of c/uc for the two epic cards but I'm glad they will be coming out online in a timely fashion. I would like to have one of each in hand and if WOTC keep them coming out the month after release the prices shouldn't go crazy.... hopefully anyway. | | | |

| Do NOT mistake me: I am very glad this has been posted.
But I am not congratulating or thanking WotC until they have demonstrated that this will be a regular event. I'm still VERY unhappy about the tile situation.
I'm not too concerned over the dpi, just so long as the card looks decent. | |

| | I appreciate that they've done this, but the idea of making epic stats for previously released figures doesn't sit well with me. I simply don't like it. | |
You know, I keep thinking that after the new design team gets done with D&D 4e, D&D won't stand for Dungeons and Dragons anymore, because well, that's just not fun. It's old and stuffy. - Originally Posted by BabWryter on Kenzerco.com | |

| | I'm really glad to see that WotC is cranking out the Epic updates to their website in good time. It still puts a premium on having a vendor and retailer kit, but doesn't force you to hit eBay to pay through the nose. | | | |

| If anyone wants to host it, I have made a .jpg version of the Aspect card, that prints at real card size (3.5" x 2.5") and is around 100dpi quality. If I had a better printer, I think it would be pretty close to the originals.
