Power Grid Resource.zip.zip (1.13 MB) (Log in or Register to download.)
Power Grid Resource Cards

Based on ideas by Mike Mestemaker (oudknoei) with improvements by Sterling Babcock (Solamar) and additions from the player aid by Travis M Spomer.

This is the final version of the file as posted earlier. This reportedly has errors in the Japan and Russia Numbers. See the discussion thread for details and future enhancements.

DataFeed_V11.xls (105 KB) (Log in or Register to download.)
This is the data source to generate the cards. (Once the table is exported to DataFeed_11.csv)
The cards are generated using a separate script as an input to NanDECK.
The first 54 cards are the old deck.
The second 54 cards are the new deck.
Blue background cells are calculated data. Do not change.

PLEASE HELP ME VERIFY THE DATA!
The 'Data' tab has all the information for all the known maps.
The spreadsheet already has a 'Conditional Formatting' to mark any data that differs from the 'Standard USA' map in red with beige background.
Since formatting differences does not translate into the flat .CSV file for the cards, I then manually added a '*' to each of those entries.
Thus, on the printed card, any number followed by a '*' means that that card differs from the 'Standard' value.

Previous edition notes:
Was only one deck.
I had USA/Germany merged onto one card so that it all fit in one deck. We can no longer do that.
There was an error in the "Spain & Portugal" for Start Garbage and Start Uranium. These are repeated in the 2nd deck so that people can reprint just the second deck.
Did not have the * for nonstandard values.

New edition notes:
Will be 2 decks
Will have a 2nd deck that can be printed alone for people who have the first deck, which will include the corrected "Spain & Portugal" cards
Will have the * for nonstandard values.
QUESTION: I am considering making Germany, USA, and Japan as separate cards. These could be merged, but if they are separate cards, then you could use the cards
to select a map. Just pick all the 4 player cards for a 4 player game, shuffle, and pick one to pick a map.
On the other hand, if I merge USA/Germany/Japan there is more room for blanks. Which do you all want?

Great cards!

Humm, I'm kind of confused here with Artscow. Should I order the cards from the album link, the card set link or they are both the same thing?

Also, should I print them glossy or matte?

The intention was to use ArtsCow. The card set link is already place on cards and can just be ordered. The album link allows you to change the distribution or create your own set.

If you want to print them yourself, I recommend getting the package and using nanDECK to generate a PDF to print out 9 per page. I generated the PDF, but it is 12 Mb, and so it will not post here properly.

According to the discussion thread:

* The starting values for Spain & Portugal are wrong; they should be 1, 3, 6, 5, but this set has them as the default: 1, 3, 7, 14.

* Someone requested the Russia & Japan expansion.

I am waiting on getting the numbers for Russia and Japan before I do an update.

Power Grid Resource Cards

Based on ideas by Mike Mestemaker (oudknoei) with improvements by Sterling Babcock (Solamar) and additions from the player aid by Travis M Spomer.

File Page: http://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/52244/power-grid-resource-...

Discussion: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/40596/item/1133217#ite...

Example: (Except the map name is white now.)



ORIGINAL DECK (With error):
Artscow album: http://www.artscow.com/ShareAlbum.aspx?Key=esqgro0d
Artscow deck: http://www.artscow.com/gallery/card/PowerGridResourceFeb3-hl...

NEW SECOND DECK:
This includes the corrected "Spain & Portugal" cards, Russia and Japan, Baden-Wurttemburg/Germany, and Quebec!

Artscow Album for 2nd Deck:
http://www.artscow.com/ShareAlbum.aspx?Key=xjf4rw48

Second Deck Original Card Back: (Includes both USA/Germany/Japan Merged as well as separate)
http://www.artscow.com/gallery/playing-cards/PowerGridResour...

First Deck New Card Back (With S&P Corrected, USA/Germany/Japan Merged to one card):
http://www.artscow.com/gallery/playing-cards/PowerGridResour...

Second Deck New Card Back: (Includes both USA/Germany/Japan Merged as well as separate)
http://www.artscow.com/gallery/playing-cards/PowerGridResour...

There is some duplication here because I have both USA/Germany/Japan Merged as well as separate, and if you reprint with the new card back, then you will get doubles of the USA/Germany/Japan Merged. If you want something else, just get the album. For each card do 'reset, zoom out x 3'. For new back, 'reset'.

I'm a little confused, why does this require 2 decks? Have the # of restock charts * the number of players outgrown 54?

If I want to generate it a PDF with NanDECK to print on cardstock, does the "Power Grid Resource.zip" from "Feb 1, 2010" contain the latest version of the script needed to do so?

Edit: Baden-Wuerttemberg resource table scan from the german EnBW version

To anyone thinking about doing verification, keep in mind that some earlier printed versions of rules had stocking misprints (korea is one that comes to mind)

* 2 Decks because the number of maps * players has outgrown 54. It is somewhere about 1.5 decks, so I filled out the 2nd deck with corrections for people who needed them.

The Feb 2010 files has the old data. You could use that along with the updated data (DataFeed_V11.xls). Note that that data file has * to indicate items that changed from the standard values. I ended up removing that, so you would have to remove that from the data file and save as CSV for the script.

Really, though I think I still have the files. I could generate a PDF for you if you want. Which cards do you want? The whole set minus the extra correction cards?

(I will be offline next week, so it may take me a week or two.)

The earliest file titled "Power Grid Resource.zip" contains:
jpg images of each of the cards of the first half plus a thumbnail of all of them, v6 of the xls data file and the csv export needed for nandeck, the source image pieces, and the nandeck script.

The next file titled "Power Grid Resource2.zip" contains:
jpg images of each of the cards of the second half

The file titled "DataFeed_V11.xls" contains:
version 11 of the source data file (in one of the tabs it also contains the nandeck script).
It has data for USA/Germany, France/Italy, Benelux/Central Europe, China/Korea, Brazil/Spain & Portugal, Russia/Japan, and Québec/Baden-Württemberg.

Finally, the file titled "Power Grid Resource.zip.zip" contains:
v12 of the xls data file and the csv export needed for nandeck, the source image pieces, and the nandeck script.

Using data file V12, on 4/4/2012 using the rules PDF files from rio grande as of that day, I have verified all the data (in the non star tab) of the following:
USA/Germany
France/Italy
Central Europe/Benelux
China/Korea
Brazil/Iberia

Russia/Japan (errors fixed here, the errors were only in the starting resources). I fixed the errors in the no-star tab, and copied the starting resource fixes to the star tab. Since Japan doesn't match USA/Germany in starting resources, I removed the word "Japan" from that card entry in the xls.


I verified "Baden-Wuerttemberg" from the english rules translation in the BGG file section here:
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/filepage/37521/funkenschlag-enb...

Quebec resource restocking I couldn't find any PDF's of the original rules, so I used a recent post from a BGG admin to verify:
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/article/6078588#6078588
I couldn't verify any of the other rules (starting resources, # cities for step, etc) since I couldn't find source data.

v15 contains some cosmetic non data changes, such as adding stars to the changed russia & japan starting resources in the star tab, and changing the 0's in the russia starting garbage to a '-' in both star/nostar tabs since thats what was used in other resource entries that start with zero (presumably to avoid confusion).

tl;dr
No errors in this version were found. This version has the fixed starting resources in russia/japan (they were incorrect in previous version).

I fixed the errors in the previous version.
So version 14 is the fixed version.
