Welcome to the Guardians CCG Page

This is a site dedicated to the Guardians collectible card game released by FPG in the mid '90s. This was a great game featuring beautiful artwork and a complex battle system. The game is now out of print and some cards are extremely difficult to find.

Here you will find alternate rules and game mods (including solo play), homebrew cards, and links to other Guardians sites.

Planar Conflict: sample of a Glyph Card

Below you will find two samples of a Glyph card. The first is a pretty straight forward glowing rune, as if it just popped into existence. The second has a trail of sparks as if the Glyph was drawn by hand, possibly with some kind of Artifact.

Please have a look and if you have any opinions, leave them in the comments. I'm having trouble choosing one, although I'm leaning towards to the first sample at the moment...

Planar Conflict Card# 14: Soul Seeker


Soul Seeker belongs to Z'Grall's deck. Note the red color inside the Vitality shield, which indicates that Soul Seeker is not a channeling receiver...

Planar Conflict Card# 13: Valkyrie Champion



So I ditched the "claw", which I really didn't like, and added a second, different shield for the Size icon. Here, then is the final version for the Vassal template and also the final version of Valkyrie Champion, which belongs to Eil Perma's deck...

Vassal Template, v2.0

So here's my mock-up on what I hope will be the final design of the Vassal card. As you can see, I muted the green channeling color with a slightly darker color. I also added different icons for size and flying and moved them down towards the bottom of the card. Finally, I showed where bribery icons would go.




I like the icon for flying, but I'm concerned the "claw" icon that I used for size doesn't look too cheesy. How can it? I mean, after all, lips and beer mugs have been used from the start! Any thought?

Planar Conflict cards# 1-6: The Planar Cards








Planar Conflict Decks

I'm finally ready to start rolling out Planar Conflict cards. Before I do, here's a look at the decks.

Think of each deck as a stand-alone product that you would walk up to the store counter and buy. Each deck contains a total of 45 cards, and contains the following:

1  Infernal
1  Control Card
12  Planar Cards
20  Vassals
5  Glyphs
2  Relics
4  Trials

There are six different Planar Conflict decks. I may add a few more in the future, but for now, here is the current list :

Planar card            Infernal
Limbo                         Dannu Mreeshi
Avernus                      Abbiddon
Carceri                       Kru'chek
Elyssium                     Eil Perma
Hades                         Z'Grall
Tartarus                      Tavu-Rae

Now that you know the make-up of the Planar decks, I can start unveiling some of the cards...
