The constant flipping and um’ing of one’s stapled character sheet printout is enough to drive poor ol’ DM Ben to (finally) drink. He wants bing, bang and boom-like speed in his precious games. Fear not – enter Daniel of 4E Fan Publishing and his amazing Power Card customizable creation.
He’s masterminded a handy program (with slick video tutorials) that allows you to build your own Power Cards. Daniel’s invention actually preceded Wizards of the Coast’s own cards but we prefer to utilize both (see our May 27th entry for that review).
Ben’s assembly process is quite simple. Get some Ultra Pro Deck Protectors. Find the applicable D&D Power Card as a base. Create and print out your customized card. Assemble and…wallah! You’re well on your way to creating your own character deck.
We owe a heavy thanks to Yosho and his supporting Imagine Games fan site. He’s created a slew of existing templates for you to import and tweak.
You can even create your magic item power cards (but finding the supporting thumbnail pics can be a bit of hunt). Still, do yourself and the DM a favor – give these heavenly cards a try.

I have found that using power cards makes my games so much easier than thumbing through sheets and sheets of stats and such. I love playing with the cards instead I am a big supporter of this style of play indeed.
