Valour & Fortitude cards

Post by ochoin »

I've got a couple of V&F Napoleonic games planned for over the school holidays. As the cognoscenti would know, the game uses playing cards.

Now, a conventional deck is fine - I certainly own a couple of packs - but is there something anyone's made that's a bit more "period"?

There are these on UK Ebay, they must be available in your colony too? :D
They appear, from other sites, to have portraits on the Court Cards.
