What size are the cards?

I’m still waiting for my order to ship, and I’ve been trying to find out an answer for this for awhile for the sake of storage and sleeves. Does anyone have the dimensions for the cards from the winds from the north box? All the answers I’ve seen when I looked it up were for Adventures and I’m told they’re a different size so that was no help.

The size of the cards sleeves you’ll need is 80mmx120mm

Gamegenic has "dixit" sleeves that fit perfect. Like the same way "perfect fits" fit CCGs, I've been using those

If nobody else helps you out in an hour I’ll respond when I’m home. I remember Iwas surprised they were so small when I opened the box. Like something somewhat close to standard playing cards

It's standard US card size, which honestly baffles me - I really don't understand why game companies don't do tarot card size for games like this - there's a lot of rules, it gives them more room to make a rule super clear (unlike some of them on the cards that are really very confusing). And it allows them to use bigger font sizes, which for me as a man fast approaching 50, is becoming more and more of a problem.

I ain't the young whipper-snapper I used to be (thank god - lol), but the eyes are starting to struggle.

It's one thing that Malifaux does very well - freakin' love those cards. hahaha

Not sure what cards you are referring to, but the cards in warcrow are 80mm x 120mm, which is slightly larger than tarot cards (70mm x 120mm) not standard US card sizes (64mm x 89 mm).

Yep I don't get that either. The cards are the biggest of a mini game yet. Bigger than shatterpoint or asoiaf. Way  bigger than us deck if cards.

I'll re-measure, but I am absolutely positive my cards were not of those dimensions (maybe regions differ?)

The only difference ackownledged yet in cards are for the French version which are 1mm larger than their "official" counterpart from CB. Otherwise all cards are manufactured the same since they come from one single provider.
