I'm interested in trying some dream cards, but I am having difficulty to find the files I can print or get printed, as well as the special rules that I presume come with some of these dream card sets.

I downloaded the svn files, but most of those images seem to have a rather low resolution--too low to print on cards through an online service. Are there files elsewhere I should be looking for?

Any help is much appreciated!

There are currently no available sets of Dream Cards, however, the good news is that the Necromancer DC set is due to be printed soon (for the first time) and the original First Folk set may also be re-printed at the same time (depending on if enough orders are received). So please send Eric and/or Nicolai a PM and let them know that you are interested in purchasing a set and they can provide you with the details.

I have attached links to their profiles below for quick reference:

the print out issue is actually easy to solve, intall MSE Magic set Editor and open the mse set files from there and select the print out option

Thank you. I've found the msi files, which are helpful. I'll try printing some of these.

I've now also found the rules (in the SVN directory "dreamcard world/rules/").

Do you know where I can find a good resolution image of the card backs (resource/hazard/character, and site/region)?

Which of the DC sets is considered the most polished or balanced or developed? I noticed that the MSE files often have multiple copies of cards with slightly different text or abilities.

The Firstborn and Durin's Folk sets have been finished. The Necromancer set will be finished soon. All other sets are still in development, and we use the mse files to test different versions. The exported jpg files are (normally) the currently used versions.
