ON THE EDGE©: THE COLD NUMBERS EXPANSION
SOME OTHERS I REMEMBER
Sent by David Freier, Pharmtoxdr@aol.com.

Awhile back I said I had some of the old Cold Numbers cards laying around that my old playgroup had begun testing. Last night looking for a deck to play I found a bunch of them. As I rediscover more of them I'll keep posting them up. I know there is a Martin Jangle card and I believe he had a character who was his brother. When I find more I send them to the list. If anyone has a webpage they wish to put them up on feel free. Also, if anyone has any color art or the basic card background for actually constructing some of these cards perhaps its time to think about putting together the Cold Numbers internet set.
