Mythic Game Master Emulator Deck

Play your favorite role-playing games solo, or with a group of players without a Game Master, using only your imagination and the Mythic Game Master Emulator Deck to guide you!

Based on the DriveThru Platinum Selling Mythic Game Master Emulator ruleset, this deck of 120 cards replaces the dice and the books, giving you Mythic results directly. The Mythic Deck handles everything Mythic handles, including Fate Questions, Event Focus and Meaning, Scene Setups, and adds Action and Description answers.

The Mythic Game Master Emulator Deck gives you all the tools you need to run a GM-free game either with a group or solo, by yourself. Mythic works with any role-playing system, and also as a writing tool to give your imagination a boost.

The PDF download of this product contains a complete guide in how to use the deck, as well as all the cards you can print for yourself. The print version is the 120 card deck along with a tuck box. The PDF manual is free when ordered with the cards, so be sure to check the PDF + Cards option when ordering the print deck.

Do you have a time frame of when this deck will be updated for Version 2?

Tana P April 10, 2023 11:24 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

My guess would be about 3 months from now, however it's really difficult to say for sure. My next project is getting Mythic Magazine Compilation #4 out then the Deck is scheduled for after that.

Adam S April 12, 2023 8:54 pm UTC

Thank you. :)

I've bought the GME 2e book. Are these cards meant to be used in conjunction with the book, or as an alternative?

Tana P March 13, 2023 5:29 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

These cards are meant to be used as an alternative to the first edition of the GME. However, they can also be used in conjunction with either edition. The cards allow for an alternate way to answer Fate Questions, which you can use to replace the method in either 1e or 2e. It also performs other core functions, like testing Expected Scenes (which works the same in 2e as in 1e), generating Random Events (which is slightly different in 2e in that it has one more option, although you could still use the deck as an alternative), and Action and Description Meaning Tables.

Mythic is a very modular system, so you can use the deck with 2e if you find the convenience of the cards worth replacing certain systems in 2e. Which systems you choose to use the cards for, or to roll using the book, are up to you and are pretty much interchangeable.

Hey Tana, I ordered the "cards in tuckbox" option not realizing that the "Print and Play and Cards in Tuckbox" option included the guide. Any chance I can get the guide as well?

Tana P March 07, 2023 7:14 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Oh sure, no problem! I know that can be confusing with the choices given. Please follow the links on this page to my publisher page, and hit the Contact button to send me an email with your email and I'll send the manual to you.

If selecting the first option “Print-and-Play PDF” does it still come with the instruction manual on how to use the cards?

Tana P February 23, 2023 6:33 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Yes. The manual and the cards themselves are all contained in the same PDF file.

Edvin A January 26, 2023 7:20 pm UTC

Hi Tana, do you have plans to update this for MGE v2?

Tana P January 27, 2023 12:21 am UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Edvin :) Yes, I'll be working on that soon.

Adam S March 15, 2023 2:41 pm UTC

Hurrah, can't wait!

Josh F November 16, 2022 3:02 am UTC

PURCHASER

If you purchase the physical version, there is no physical manual, just the option to print one that has half the content covered in SAMPLE watermarks :/ Its also locked and cant be printed. Seems like they should include these in a pdf for the physical purchasers. It says to choose physical+PDF option. That option doesn’t exist.

Otherwise they are amazing. Im currently trying to find a clean copy of the manual i paid for

Tana P November 16, 2022 3:53 am UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Josh, I'm sorry for the problems. The third option is Print-and-Play PDF + Card(s) in Tuckbox which should give you both, the physical cards and the pdf manual (as well as some other files).

Please contact me through email and I'll make sure you get the pdf material.

I'm glad you like the cards :)

Thank you!!! All my eyes saw were print and play!

No worries :) Please be sure to email me as I'll need your email to send the PDFs to. I can be contacted through my publisher website link.

Happy adventuring :)

Hi Tana! What to start by saying Thank you for all your hard work and creating the Mythic products. I was wondering if a deck for variations 2 is coming soon?

Tana P May 19, 2022 9:52 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Alain, thank you for your kind words :) I don't currently have a deck for Variations 2 in development, although I could see one happening. Right now I'm focused on finishing Mythic Second Edition, but once that's done I'll be able to tackle doing more decks, which I really want to do.

Guillermo C February 18, 2022 12:10 am UTC

Hi. Can I used with dnd 3.5?

Tana P February 18, 2022 6:46 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Guillermo. Yes, this works fine with DND 3.5, or just about any RPG. If you're already familiar with solo role-playing, the deck makes using the Mythic system easier and faster. If you haven't tried solo yet, it doesn't take long to get up to speed. After an adventure session or two you will start to get a feel for how it works.

Guillermo C February 20, 2022 6:23 pm UTC

thanks. Is there a difference between the Deck n the blue book

Tana P March 05, 2022 9:47 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

It was my intention to have the deck match the blue book as closely as possible, including getting close to the same kind of odds for the same circumstances. Probably the only significant difference is that the cards also contain the Description Event Meaning Table information found in later books. I think this makes the cards more complete.

Lisa A December 15, 2021 2:58 pm UTC

Making an additional comment on the cards. I love them. They are a real big PITA when you get started because the "ask a question, flip cards for answer, interpret the response" isn't how we normally play our games. If anything, I'd say it is closer to brainstorming an adventure for you players, except you are the player and I guess you should try not to cheat, but like all solitaire games, nobody cares but you.

I fiddle with it every now and then, so my epic tale of the 1st level Paladin (now 2d, pushing third) and his Ranger henchman (either almost 2d or just 2d) have been keeping the tracks between the villages clear of threats, including a low level attempt by a big merchant guild to shut down the local village traders, will continue on when I have nothing else to do.

Wow, I love your continued support with these amazing products!

The Mythic magazines take this greatness even further!

You have no idea how much solo enjoyment I have gotten from all things Mythic!

It holds a special place in my heart….I am a satisfied customer for life.

Thank you Tana!

Sumit M September 09, 2021 6:43 am UTC

Is there a way to use these cards to ascertain the answer to competing ranks? I use Mythic RPG for my solo games and I keep both fate charts( Mythic RPG FC and Mythic Emulator FC). I would like to use these cards only but I dont see any indication that these can answer difficulty vs acting rack questions.

Tana P September 09, 2021 9:02 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Sumit. The cards are meant to be for the blue book emulation rules only.

I plan to write an article at some point in Mythic Magazine to address using the deck and the chartless Fate Check from Mythic Variations 2 with the Resisted Ranks rules for Mythic RPG. For what you're asking, it'll mostly boil down to comparing every 2 shifts in Rank difference (rounded up) between the Acting and Difficulty Ranks and using that as a modifier on the Odds chart with the deck, going up if the Acting Rank is higher and going down if it's lower.

So for instance, your Acting Rank of Exceptional in computer hacking versus a computer firewall of Above Average is 2 Ranks in difference, giving you a +1 shift in the Odds. Starting from Odds of 50/50 this would take you to Likely with the cards. So, you're turning the Acting Rank and Difficulty Rank difference into Odds with the cards, starting from 50/50 and not using the Chaos Factor.

I'm aware how fiddly that all sounds right now, I plan...See more

Me M June 01, 2023 8:37 am UTC

Hi, did you ever write that article? I'm very interested. As it is, your post already helped me understand a lot, but a nice article, well-written as Mythic usually is, would be really helpful!

Me M June 01, 2023 9:08 am UTC

Found it; issue 13. :)

Is there a duplex version for this? It would help a lot!

Tana P September 03, 2021 4:46 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi André. No, I'm sorry, there's not one yet. I plan to make one and add it to the downloads.

André V September 23, 2021 8:03 am UTC

PURCHASER

When are we having a duplex version of this? Printing like it is is a nightmare of time and resources so i paid for something that still can't use.

Tana P September 23, 2021 9:33 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

I'm sorry for the trouble, André. The duplex versions of the letter and A4 sizes are available now in the downloads section.

Rishi H August 05, 2021 6:54 pm UTC

PURCHASER

Really nice, but why is there no duplex version?

Tana P August 08, 2021 9:40 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Rishi, thank you for asking. I'll put this on my schedule to make a duplex version and add it to the downloads.

Tana P September 23, 2021 9:33 pm UTC

Thanks a lot! Well done. My sandbox game really comes to life with your card deck, and it makes using the GM Emulator much more convinient.

Do these come with individual image files so the cards can be used on VTTs or a deck drawing app (I use Custom Image Dice for Android)? I see you've done this for the Adventure Crafter deck, but there's no mention here.

Tana P November 27, 2020 4:47 pm UTC

PUBLISHER

Hi Matt, thanks for asking! Yes, there is a zip file included that contains individual card images for use in apps. This was added later after the initial publishing when people asked for it. I should add that to the product description.
