A few weeks back, we had a request for a pack of Quick Reference Cards (QRCs) that were laminated on the front and had some space on the back for notes, a character sketch, or whatever. We're going to make this happen, but I'd like to know from you guys and gals what you want on the BACK of the card! Let me know and we'll make this a reality!! :)
Never let it be said that WMS doesn't give the fans what they want! :P

I like the idea
I like the idea of laminated qrc's!

Looks great!
Looks great Bob! There's a spot for Name on the flip side, so I don't think that's needed. Also, what's issuer? :P

Thank you!

I added it only for completeness.
Also, what's issuer? :P
The group or organization issuing the ID: NAU, Novus Europa, Wandering Men, etc.

On second thought
I don't like the idea. The info could be erased too easily, and if you didn't erase the dry erase marker you used to write on them, then it'd "stain" the card. On second thought, I vote against lamination.

Only on the front
Lamination would only be on the front.

Hmmm
Well, I only have my concerns. I use protective covers for b-tech sheets and those were the problems I encountered. But, go for it. If its popular, go with the majority.

Not sure...
Not sure if I'm tracking on your issues; maybe I'm just thick headed today. :P

Its ok...
Alright, let me see if I can explain this more clearly. When I play b-tech, I have stat sheets I keep in protective sleeves. I use dry erase markers on these sheets. When playing, I ran into two problems. First, if we didn't get to finish a game and I had to put my sleeves back in my binder for a later game, then the sleeves would rub together and erase what I had written on the sleeves. Second, if the writing wasn't erased, then it would dry and "stain" the sleeves. I guess my concern is that we will have the same problem with laminated QRC's.

Not sure...
I'm not sure, the fronts will be laminated but the backs will not. I guess we'll just have to try it out and see. If nothing else, with Untold it's easy to wipe the QRCs clean at the end of each session and rebuild them; it's not like it takes a long time. :P

Question for Ben
Was it dry-erase or wet-erase markers you have had trouble with before? I am asking because I have seen that problem with wet-erase/overhead markers staining plastic when left for a while, but I have not seen it with dry-erase. I was originally asking for lamination for proper use of wet-erase markers.

Dry-erase
They are definitely dry erase markers.
Here is a suggestion for the reverse:
