From my experience I very rarely had the plastic layer peeling off the paper. I guess to be doubly sure you can run the whole thing through the laminating machine twice, but I seldom do it, and I rarely have problems anyway. <br /><br />If you are designing your Hiew Chok Sien 邱卓成https://www.blogger.com/profile/17243478408389021695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34958803631138938.post-70259258751172879222010-01-30T11:38:22.051+08:002010-01-30T11:38:22.051+08:00Uh, I didn't know you could cut up laminated p...Uh, I didn't know you could cut up laminated paper. I thought that would just make the paper fall out of the plastic. I was wondering about this because I've been trying to make cards of my own. So far I've been using cards from other games as backing and put them in plastic sleeves with my card designs printed out and inserted in front. I just figured I could get generic cardboard deckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04972546938009270251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34958803631138938.post-70628236089530166902010-01-30T11:14:40.216+08:002010-01-30T11:14:40.216+08:00Wan, I print them on A4 paper, and then laminate t...Wan, I print them on A4 paper, and then laminate the paper, and then cut them up. That's why you see the card edges are all sharp and dangerous. I'm too lazy to cut them round. :-)Hiew Chok Sien 邱卓成https://www.blogger.com/profile/17243478408389021695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34958803631138938.post-9805811082272037762010-01-30T10:47:39.443+08:002010-01-30T10:47:39.443+08:00What do you print the cards on?What do you print the cards on?deckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04972546938009270251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34958803631138938.post-45351725868973743832010-01-30T09:18:21.902+08:002010-01-30T09:18:21.902+08:00I think in the original German version of the game...I think in the original German version of the game the name is some old classic movie (I forget what it is), which would probably be not as bad.

You say that it didn't get much attention, and I wouldn't expect that a game with such a theme would. It's too bad they didn't make a better theme because it sounds like the mechanics are something a lot of people may like once they've tried it.Notsonoreply@blogger.com
