Ouroboros

Unread post by Harvonsgard »

For fans of occult styled decks, this maybe interesting. Ouroboros Playing Cards; on kickstarter soon, printed by Cartamundi.

Personal opinion: Nice design, a topic which isn't that stale, compared to others. Definetly looking forward to these but highly depends on price and stock/finish.

Mod magic for showing pics from instagram needed :) !

Mod magic applied :D

Since there is often a request to post instagram pics in forum, i have a solution for firefox users:

Sorry, all my menus are in german.... but i think with you could do it with this little guide i made, i hope someone can test it for english/us version of firefox.

Maybe it looks a bit complicated, but if you have done it 3 times , you could do it almost blind :)



1. Find a nice pic on instagram you want to post here on UC:
1.png
1.png (327.85 KiB) Viewed 3968 times
2. After clicking the pic the instagram post should open:
2.png
3. now you have only the post opend not just some pop-up:
3.png
4. Now you have opend the firefox menu for Website Information:
4.png

5. now you have the direct link of the Instagram pic in your clipboard, just paste it whereever you want to use it , Congrats ! ;)

There is something definitely wrong with the QoS hands. They look like little teddy bear paws or something. Definitely not the same style or proportions as the Jack pic above hers.

I quite like this deck but I will say that I wish the back had more color or something going on to make it pop. I would have liked to see a hint of green here and there like we see on the courts.

One deck for $16 or 2 decks for $20 (EB)... I don't usually get 2 decks but this seems like a no-brainer.

The impossibles bottle is a nice add-on. Solid campaign. Except for the part where the creator writes "Ace courts" instead of "Spades courts".
Would like to see the 300% stretch goal; curios what a Cockatrice Hunt is... (I only know them from Final Fantasy) :lol:

My biggest concern here is that while the deck is nice and the funding goal adequate for Cartamundi, we are talking about a first time creator here. I have been burned a couple of times with debut campaigns and then there are also people like Claude who changed the printer during the post-funding stage. I like the deck but will probably look to buy it in the secondary market.

If I'm not interested in any extras (e.g. bottle or coins), I mostly wait for the retail as well. Better safe than sorry :D .

Shipping is very cheap even for 2 decks. $2 shipping to EU is unusually low.
