Old-School Spell Cards for Old-School Essentials (OSE) and Other OSR RPGs

This beautiful set of 117 poker-sized spell cards features old-school black-and-white art and is printed on sturdy, low-gloss, UV-coated paper. The cards are printed on both sides ("Cleric Spells" or "Magic-User Spells" on one side and the spell details on the other side). The cards include all the open content spells from the Old-School Essentials Classic for both Clerics and Magic-Users. They also include separate, illustrated cards for the different types of elementals that can be summoned in the game. Although these cards are specifically designed to be compatible with Old-School Essentials, they also work with other B/X-derived OSR games as well.

This product costs more than my first product (Classic Old-School Character Class Reference Cards) because it has so many cards and such a big art budget (at least for me). I love the old-school black-and-white art on these cards and hope others will too. These cards are useful for both players and GMs. Make your spells easier to reference and a bit more magical today.

I notice that Read Magic isn’t in the Magic-User spells. Is there a specific reason it was excluded?

Wow, I can't believe I missed this. So sorry. Thanks for catching this. Read Magic has now been added. The physical cards will be available again once I receive and check the proof.

Would you consider creating cards for the Druid and Illusionist spells in OSE Advanced Fantasy?

I asked Necrotic Gnome for permission to do these (because they are not part of the OSE SRD), but they politely declined.

How are we supposed to print the PDF to be correct sized cards?

You should be able to print them out on any printer at 100% size but you will need to cut them out yourself. They are standard US poker-sized cards and can be sleeved. I highly recommend getting the professionally printed cards from DriveThruRPG to avoid the extra work involved, but I made the cards available in PDF because some people like to DYI or take digital screenshots for use in VTTs.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
