Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template
by ShuffleKit
A flat comic mecha set: three unit fronts, a tactic front and a shared back, cut to poker size and print-ready. Milled armour plate, a clipped name banner, a cost strip on the type line and an ATK / DEF bar either side of the unit's class. Every frame is editable shapes and type rather than a flattened image, so the steel and the faction colour are yours to change. Comes with a six-card sample deck.

Adding a template copies its designs, fields, and sample cards into your own project. Your copy is yours, and later changes by the author never touch it.
What’s in Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template
Five designs: Titan Unit Card, Striker Unit Card, Warden Unit Card, Tactic Card and Card Back.
Your cards live in a sheet, one row each, with a column for every field the designs read: Name, Artwork, Subtitle, Cost, Description, Flavor Text, Attack and Defense. Six of those rows arrive filled in, so there is something on the design before you type a word.
Read the six sample cards
| Name | Subtitle | Description | Flavor Text | Attack | Defense |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Titan Unit | Mech / Warrior / Legendary | First strike. When Titan Unit enters the battlefield, deal 5 damage divided as you choose among opposing units. While Titan Unit is damaged, it cannot be blocked by units with 3 or less defence. | Command asked for a tank. The foundry gave them a verdict. | 8 | 6 |
| Arc Striker | Mech / Skirmisher / Rare | Haste. Arc Striker may attack the turn it is deployed. Whenever it deals combat damage to a unit, that unit's controller discards a card from their reserve. It cannot be blocked by units deployed this turn. | Hit the line before the line knows there is one. | 5 | 3 |
| Bulwark Warden | Mech / Guardian / Uncommon | Guard. Opposing units must attack Bulwark Warden if able. Damage dealt to friendly units adjacent to it is reduced by 2, to a minimum of 1. Bulwark Warden does not exhaust when it blocks. | Nothing gets past it. That is the entire tactical doctrine. | 2 | 9 |
| Sentry Line | Mech / Support / Common | Deploy two Sentry Line units instead of one, each with half the printed attack rounded down. While two or more Sentry Line units are on the field, each of them gains +1 defence at the start of your turn. | Cheap, slow, and always exactly where the map said it would be. | 3 | 4 |
| Overclock | Tactic / Instant | Play during your opponent's attack step. Target friendly unit gains +3 ATK and cannot be destroyed by damage this turn. At the end of the turn, deal 2 damage to that unit; if that damage would destroy it, exhaust it instead and its controller draws a card. Overclock cannot target a unit that was deployed this turn. | Every reactor has a line on the dial past the red one. | ||
| Cascade Failure | Tactic / Order | Choose an opposing unit with 5 or more attack. It exhausts, and every other unit its controller owns takes 1 damage for each point of attack above 4 it has. Units destroyed this way are removed rather than sent to the scrapyard, and cannot be recovered. | The bigger the reactor, the shorter the argument with physics. |
Printing at poker size
Poker: 2.5 × 3.5 in, 63.5 × 88.9 mm, 750 × 1050 pixels at 300 DPI.
On the Hobby plan, export a print-ready PDF with bleed and cut lines. PNG and SVG come out at the same size, which is what Tabletop Simulator wants. On Indie, send it to a print-on-demand partner through Print & Ship.
A printer asks for an eighth of an inch of bleed on every edge on top of those numbers, so this card goes out as 825 × 1125. The export adds it. Let the artwork run into the bleed and keep the text inside the cut line, and nothing arrives trimmed.
Questions about Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Still have questions? Contact us
What happens when I add Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template to a project?
The five designs, the eight fields and the six sample cards are copied into a project of yours, with the fields already pointed at the design. Nothing stays linked to this page afterwards, so the author's later edits never reach your copy.
What size does Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template print at?
Poker size: 2.5 × 3.5 in, 63.5 × 88.9 mm, 750 × 1050 pixels at 300 DPI. Those are the numbers to hand a print shop, and the ones to check a sleeve against.
Is Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template free?
Yes. Adding it, editing it, filling it with your own cards and playtesting it online are all free. Exporting print files starts on the Hobby plan, and Print & Ship through The Game Crafter is on Indie. No template sits behind a paid plan.
Can I change the designs?
Yes. They land in your project as ordinary layouts, so you can drag an element somewhere else, put your own art behind the frame, restyle the type or rename a field. Edit a design once and every card on it follows.
Can I use my own cards instead of the samples?
Yes — the samples are rows in a sheet, and they are there to be overwritten. Type over them, add rows of your own, or bring a CSV and match its headers to the fields.
Can I sell a game made with Hardpoint Mecha Trading Card Template?
Yes. This one is ours, and you keep commercial rights to what you build from it, crowdfunding and retail included.
Ready to build your card game?
This template is free, and so is the editor it opens in.
