Since describing how I would carry out the modularity of Robbers' Roost, I have been designing the latent effect cards, and I thought I would show some of my results.

Robbers' Roost Latent Effect Cards

The following should come to your attention:
  1. Purple Border. This border should help distinguish the unique playing style of the latent effect cards. As with green and blue cards, the purple cards are played in front of you. However, when played they have an immediate effect, and at the beginning of your next turn a latent effect (this cannot be stored up for use as with the green card). To help distinguish the color of the card, I made the top left and bottom right corners be a darker hue of purple than the other quadrants.

  2. Pocket Watch symbol. The pocket watch symbol in the middle of many of the card descriptions separates the initial effect (on top) from the latent effect (on bottom). This design style is similar to Dodge City's 2 effect cards (like Dodge), which had a symbol separate 1 effect from another.

  3. Ox Skull Icon. This helps differentiate the latent effect pack from the out-of-turn pack in Robbers' Roost for modularity purposes.

I have finished the general design of all of the purple latent effect cards:

The art still requires some tweeking and I still need to work on reassigning card values for modularity purposes. As with other BANG! expansions/cards, I will try to keep the values thematically appropriate or consistent with their card types.
