Also so you can get more of the cards that there is only one of in the character box (like the Captain or ship,etc.)in order to make building the decks more equally for all players since you can get 3-4 decks out of each box.
Me and my wife who are avid deck building gamers had the same complaint. After a few play throughs we decided that the experience truly could not reach its full potential with out a second set of cards. This way each player could truly craft their deck from their own pool of cards instead of having to share the pool. Unless I missed it some where I haven't really seen a suggestion on how to proceed with setup so we made our own house variant to make it fair when drawing our decks from the pool of cards. We would have much rather received 2/1.5 decks instead of the "hit deck" (which is gorgeous by the way)or have the additional deck sold separately so as we do not have to purchase a set. I can buy a hit deck for $2 not as pretty but it does the job.
EDIT: Suggestion #1 more(quantity) of the same type of cards so better themed decks could be built out of 1 set.
For instance when I buy a MTG box set which retails for about $32 I get 2 full complete decks of 60 cards plus 15 card sideboards. Which has made it really easy to introduce people to MTG. Not that I am trying to compare RP to MTG but its a great value. So if there is some way that this could be achieved or some sort of compromise that would be awesome and I would be fully down to support the KS.
Suggestion #2 Would like to see punch out tokens or plastic winks included to be used as -1HP.
Your doing great work Nick and having Don's art work is amazing. With a little bit of tweaking to balance some of the cards i really think this game can become something great! (Me and the wife and a few others are really putting it through the ringer trying out different scenarios will post our thoughts and findings in another thread soon)
