The Enemy Within -- any sources for cards?

I have the great fortune of having purchased a used The Enemy Within for 3rd edition at a reasonable price. I am going to start running it on Wednesday evening to my group.

I received two small map sheets with the book. What I did not get is any cards. Actions, creatures, locations, items -- I'll make stuff up. The handouts I can copy from the book.

But what I am missing is the nine clue cards I see listed in component lists for the campaign. The clues are not really explained in the book, and are crucial for an investigative campaign.

Does anyone happen to have a source for the cards, or know of anyone who might have scanned them? Even just the text on them would be sufficient for me to create something to replace them.


Thanks for any suggestions!

Are you still looking for this? I have 2 copies of Enemy Within for 3rd Edition buried somewhere in my shed or basement. One of them had the cards cut out already and it's kind of a mess but I think the cards are intact on the second one.

Yes, still looking! Did two sessions in Averheim thus far, third one is this Wednesday. Just prepping now. :-)

Any help much appreciated!

All right I will search for my copies and see if I have what you need. I'll probably need a couple of days.

Sent in pdf form. The backs are all the same, on the second page.

There is a metric shit-ton of other cards. Some of them would be easy to scan but others, yeesh. Here's the text from the back of the box explaining the contents:

Everything except the Marks and condition cards are unique as far as I can tell from a quick look at the complete component list. If you've already started the campaign, you won't need the background cards, as they're only used for character creation. And you can easily make do without the creature cards, as profiles are provided in the book. Other cards... I depends how much you rely on the component-heavy nature of 3rd edition.

Thank you both Chuck and Karanthir, who provided the clue cards independently of each other. Sorry for my delay in responding. I am prepping for tomorrows game after a two-week hiatus so came to see if anyone had been able to help me. Very much appreciate your help!!!

The rest of the stuff I have been able to piece together from the book -- including the character backgrounds, they are listed. Not running it component heavy otherwise, using 2nd edition rules. :)

Booooo! ;)

But seriously, enjoy. It's a great campaign, although we found that it starts a bit slow.

It's been a bit slow, indeed, with the PCs finding a major clue in their first session, and then basically nothing but watching time go by for a couple sessions. But it is about to get more interesting! :twisted:

Thanks again for the help, Chuck and Karanthir!
