Tactics Ogre arcanas cards

You have no idea how much I like Tactic Ogre
There are very few games with the message "your actions have consequences" in the world of strategy JRPG, this is one of those few games Tactics Ogre (TO) Let's us cling together it's an enhanced port of the Super Famicom TO developed by QUEST and designed by Yasumi Matsuno is the tale of Denam a young soldier who becomes part of a big military conflict that threatens to kill not only him but those he hold dear.
There are 3 promotional trailers I've seen for this remake the first one it's just an animation showcase introducing the characters, the rendering style it's clearly the same they use for the remaster of Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions.

This two are used to illustrate the world in which the conflict takes place along with the mechanics and combat:


When this game was released for the PSP in the year 2010 it came with a limited edition that included some Tarot Cards about the 21 major arcana used in the game each card was carefully designed by Akihiko Yoshida (another great artist) based on the original design of the card and the significance it holds, nowadays they are expensive and rare to find but why Tarot Cards? well if you watched the videos you could see the game uses them as symbols of your choices (Pavel Denam's Choices)and a way to buff/debuff characters on the field.
Denam's wisdom for young entrepreneurs. 
As you remember this is a game about choices and sticking to your own choices no matter what or who gests the short end of the stick, you will constantly decide about many things and will pay the consequences: who lives? who dies? who joins your army? what dialogs you will read?
Wheel of Fortune

Lets watch the game cover again shall we? what do you see? a bunch of characters making a circle right? and if you ever seen Tarot cards (Persona games) you should know about the WHEEL OF FORTUNE and what each represents, it will be by your choices that most of this characters will live or die it's a giant wheel of KARMA, good choices? bad choices? neutral choices? it all adds up in the end.
I liked the message of the game so much I scouted the internet for those cards and after a lot of searching could find them in a "OK" resolution and decided to put them all on a single Photoshop file ready to be printed, so there you go if you like the game you can now print the cards too for free, never ever try to sell them since you are not the artist.

Get the 21 Major Arcanas
