MÖRK BORG Compatible Core Reference Cards
A downloadable book
Do you like TTRPGs? Do you enjoy reference cards filled with items, magical scrolls, beasts, abilities, lore, advice, and hundreds of unique custom illustrations? If so, then this set of 166 double sided, tarot size MÖRK BORG Compatible, ttrpg friendly cards may be what you have been looking for.
Each card is an item taken directly from the rules like TTRPG MÖRK BORG. These are not official content but with the unholy blessing of Johan Nohr and team MÖRK BORG the cards will consist of not only all the equipment, weapons, service, and beasts from page 25 but also Occult Treasures, Corpse Plundering, Unclean Scrolls, Sacred Scrolls, as well as class specific items and specialties.
Not only will you obtain a useful set of reference cards but a zine, that allows for a solo/coop gameplay mode in the form of a journaling adventure.
The card thief zine is a tool for players to tell a story; a journey to uncover forbidden arcane magicks at any cost. It provides structure and guidance in the form of writing prompts, events, tables, and requirements that need to be completed in order progress to the next session. Players can play it together but it truly shines as a solitary experience. The zine is intended as a supplement or campaign addition rather than something that steers gameplay and main quest narratives.
To play that zine as well as aid in standard play you will also gain access to a set of reusable character sheets called vitality chart cards. These cards make it easy to track your stats and gain quick reference to rules during standard or solo play.
MÖRK BORG Core Item Reference cards and the Card Thief Card Game are independent productions by Alex K. Barton of newyear Studios and are not affiliated with Ockult Örtmästare Games or Stockholm Kartell. It is published under the MÖRK BORG Third Party License.
Made possible via Kickstarter!

Hey. I bought a physical copy of this deck but the retailer only sent a link for the Core 74 MB - Print and Play - Final.pdf file and nothing else.
Would you mind sending me a download link? I can show proof of purchase.
Manx,
I am happy to help you out. That said what was the retailer? I would like to inform them that there is an issue with their PDF distribution. Hopefully its not me haha.
Sure. Do you have an email or somewhere else where we can hash this out?
Sure, email me at alex@newyearstudios.com
I got your email but when i responded I got a kickback saying your mail box was full and unable to receive my email. DO you have another email. I am happy to respond to your questions here though. It may clear up a question others may have. let me know. :D
No worries! Looks like we got it all resolved.
What's up with the physical orders? There no longer seems to be an online presence for Newyear Studio and all attempts to reach you have failed. I've ordered a physical core kit and that order is still pending.
Sorry for your struggles reaching me. I am alive and fulfilling orders. I have however been moving for the past two weeks so things have been a little crazy for me. Thankfully I am fully out of my old house and into the new one. I am still spread between two cities but thankfully things are at least calming down some now.
As for my online presence. I just really dislike social media. It's all so awful. I kinda hold up here on itch and sometimes check bluesky these days.
Thank you for the update! Looking forward to receiving the cards :)
I want a physical copy!!?? Any chance ?? Oxox if yes lol
Hey, yeah, things are about to go up on my website for physical sale. Be on the look out. newyearStudios.com
I will make an update when it goes live.
Hi, i bought those in physic with the pledge manager months ago, when are going to be sent?
Hey thanks for reaching out over here on itch.io! If your looking for info on progress towards the completion and fulfillment of this project in physical format I have been updating the Kickstarter page regularly to make sure everyone is informed. If you have any specific questions please do reach out. I am working out and finalizing manufacturing on some of the delayed components. Rewards should start fulfillment sometimes in the first half of this year. I am sorry for the insanely slow turn around on the physical rewards for this project. There have been a lot of bumps in the road. I appreciate you!
Will there ever be a reprint of this
Hey, this may sound crazy but the project has not shipped yet... I am crossing my fingers the pledge manager will launch by the 15th of next month. Sooo, if you wanted to pick up a physical copy here is the link to be notified when it goes live in open pledge status. Thanks for reaching out!

All this looks amazing. Would you ever consider selling the reusable character sheets download separately?
Is there any chance of getting a test page of the cards to see how well they print?
And just out of curiosity why tarot sized cards and not poker/tcg sized?
Sure! Shoot me an email at alex@newyearstudios.com and I will send you back a sample set of print and play cards. As for the reason why the cards are so large. The PDF actually explains this haha. So, just copy and pasting that here. "Well, the idea is to allow all participants in a session to be able to see these cards from across the table. It also gives more room for info."

OMG!! that makes so much sense!
What is the best printing settings to get them to be tarot size? I've just started printing at home. My 8.5x11 comes out to small to be tarot card sized.
Hey Conley! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. These cards are laid out on vertical A4 sheets. That said, they should print just fine on 8.5x11 US standard sheets. To insure they print to scale when you enter the print dialogue uncheck "Scale To Fit" if it is selected. It may also help to set the document to print with center alignment top and bottom so that it is not offset to the upper left corner. A little of the top and bottom of each page may get cropped off using this method but it will print the cards to scale. Each card should print at the size 2.75" x 4.75" (70 mm x 120 mm) If they are this size but still don't fit check your tarot card sleeves. There are actually a few variations on the Tarot card size and I have run into oversized sleeves a few times. Hope this helps! Best of luck printing! Reach back out if you continue to have issues and I will see what more I can do to assist.
Thanks for your continued work on this. Proud to be a supporter. I just downloaded the digital copies to look over. Cheers
Thank you for your patience with me and the kind words! I am excited to have the pdfs officially out.
FINALLY! IT LIVES!
Glad to see this and can't wait to get my scvm covered hands on the physical cards!
I have a feeling the digital version of this is coming soon....could it be?
lol, sorry, 3 months is a long wait but here it is. :D
I'm so excited! Thanks for all your hard work.
I missed the KS but I need this... digital, physic, or even in my flesh. Hope it can be bought soon, the add-ons would be available too?

Any further update on this?
Hey Whiizom, thanks for checking in on this project. I updated the main KS campaign page with a project update a while back to let everyone know the project is alive and well. I have simply been working on the solo/coop zine alot and have recently moved homes, it has taken me a while to get back into the swing of things. I am behind schedule, but plan on digital versions going out to backers by July. Physical copies will take longer as they have yet to even go to the printer yet. I apologize for the delay. Life have recently just been eating up alot of my personal work time. I again apologize for the delay. I had hoped to have the project done and to the printer by now but life had other things planned. :(
hell yes ☠️ ⚔️ 🩸
Thanks for the comment! The phrase "Hell yes" has never made me feel more appreciated. lol Please do spread the word about the project. I am no social media master lol.
