Default Pyramid Cards

Does anyone know or have good clear images of the pyramid cards? I'd like to attempt making a deck of pyramid cards, but don't know what a deck consists of...

The ones from the Intergalactic deck are the best pictures I can think of off the top of my head. [IMG][/IMG]

There is a thread about this over at battlestargalacticaclub.com that has been going for a while. I think there were some good pictures over there.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for that. Now pretty much all I need is how much of each type is included in a deck. I don't know much about decks of cards, especially Pyramid...

No prob! The deck I have is done up like a regular deck of cards. Four suits (colors), numbering 1-13 (in the Mayan numeral system) and two jokers (Capstones).

You can pretty much play regular poker with the cards I have. I know there are different types of decks though.

That was....confusing.

I have no head for math. I flunked it twice in high school. Took a conditional exam the first time and passed it. The second time I went to summer school and passed that.

I'm also a terrible card player.

LOL! Sounds like we have a lot in common! I can't stand math either, and therefore don't make a very good card player! But, I still think it'd be cool to have a Pyramid deck.

As long as the instructions are clear, concise and to the point, I'd like to learn how to play myself.

Of course, I'd need some replica Cubits to go along with my Pyramid deck!

Never mind cubits, let's make it more interesting.

Godiva's chocolates!

Maybe I should write a fic about a session of Strip Pyramid; guys versus gals.

And the girls aren't losing.

Imagine it; all that Colonial Warrior eye candy sitting around in various states of undress, one or two of them down to their socks and nothing else.

Even Starbuck, the card shark, is down to his skivvies (if he even wears any), his socks, and nothing else.

Ladies, get your drool buckets!
