9 Suit Extended Deck

9 Suit Extended Deck

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Invent games, add new depths to old favourites, or simply mix it up by using different suits and colours with this flexible extended playing card deck.

With 5 new suits and 4 new face cards, the possibilities are endless!

New suits and colour

The deck contains 9 suits, in 3 colours, with 17 cards per suit. In addition to the 4 traditional playing card suits (hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs), it contains cards in 5 new suits, with one extra black and red suits, and three all new blue suits:

  • Cups (black)
  • Shields (red)
  • Crowns (blue)
  • Bottles (blue)
  • Anchors (blue)

All the suits, plus joker:

New face cards

In addition to the traditional cards (2-10, Jack, Queen, King, Ace, and one joker in each colour), each suit in the deck also has 4 new face cards:

  • Bishop
  • Cardinal
  • Pope
  • God

A religious theme was chosen for the additional face cards because it was a logical extension of the medieval theme of the traditional face cards. The only power comparable to the royalty was the church.

The new face cards:

New possibilities

In order to make the deck more flexible, each face card is marked only with a letter corresponding to its name (i.e. "J", "Q", "K", "B", "C", "P", "G"), so games are free to interpret these cards as they wish.

Cool cards. It is obvious that each color has common features in its suits. The black ones are on a stick, the red ones are pointed at the bottom, and the blue ones are rounded at the bottom. And all are symmetrical along the axis. Perfect harmony. And if it were theoretically possible to introduce a 4th color (for example, green), then it could be stars, pyramids and crosses (not clubs) (pointed at the top). Coin, bullet and crescent (moon, can be made symmetrical along the axis if you remove the segment exactly from below) (rounding on the side, the first two are regular circles). Steering wheels, flowers, planets - circles with additions. Clouds, pigeons (for symmetry, remove the beak from the side and align the wings in comparison with the Fat Pack), acorns - rounding at the top. Tridents, axes (with two identical points on the sides, unlike the Fat Pack) and swords - pointed at the top + general military theme).

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
