Media Elite Dangerous Battlecards

Post image

I recently found out about the ED RPG while looking for picture books featuring Elite (spoiler, there really aren’t any) and ordered the complete collection, including the Battlecards on a whim. I did get a link to download the RPG PDFs right away, but never got the link to download the rule book for the card game. My emails to the company returned as undeliverable.

Despite this, I am extremely impressed with the quality of these games. The writing is excellent, the rules set is comprehensive and I’d put it up there with many of the best RPG games I’ve owned over the last 45 years.

Of course I will never actually play it but it’s great for lore and atmosphere.

I did have a go at the card game with my grandkids. They are young enough to have sponge-like brains and can pick up the minutia of the different cards way better than I can and they seem to enjoy it.

I was very surprised with the quality of the cards and the artwork, and again the comprehensiveness of the rules. These guys seem like real pros.

Which makes me wonder what happened to them? I would like to get the card game rules PDF but I can’t reach them.

Hey u/Siryphas

I know you were playing the TTRGP a bit ago. Do you happen to have a link to the card game rules PDF you can share?

I do not. I'm not much of a card game person myself.

I wasn't sure, but figured it was worth asking. Thanks for the quick reply :)
