Card Sleeve Options and review

 Sleeves on Glory to Rome
~~Mayday Games Premium Sleeves (Premium) 63.5mm x 88mm~~

Clear and easy to apply, some 'puffing' and sliding when cards are stacked but this has diminished over time. Tend to catch and hang up.


Sleeves on Puzzle Strike 2, Imperium Classic and Imperium Legends.
~~Arcane Tinmen Non-Glare Sleeves 50 ct Standard Size Card Sleeves 63mm x 88mm (80 microns thick) soft non-reflective matte treatment~~

"Frosted" matte look. Just slightly obscures or mutes the card, but has a great feel in hand.


Sleeves on Star Wars - The Deck Building Game
~~Fantasy Flight Standard (OOP) 63.5mm x 88mm (100 microns thick)~~

Fantasy Flight were the gold standard, easy to shuffle, not to slick, strong.

But they are actually too big on this game. I may end up switching if an expansion ever comes out for this game.

Sleeves on Undaunted
~~Dragon Shield~~

Dragon Shield clear sleeves are good for double sleeving, and the Dragon Shield colored sleeves have been perfect for Undaunted (Inky PETROL for German, and GREEN for Americans, IVORY for British recon, and BROWN for Italians.)


Fantasy Flight Standard (OOP) 63.5mm x 88mm (100 microns thick)
Arcane Tinmen Non-Glare Sleeves 50 ct Standard Size Card Sleeves 63mm x 88mm (80 microns thick) soft non-reflective matte treatment
Dragon Shield - GREAT color options, tough sleeves, but not clear and so not what I want if I want to see the original artwork on the cards.
Sleeve Kings 63.5mm x 88mm (60 microns thick)
Sleeve Kings Premium (100 microns thick) 59mm x 92mm
Gamegenic Standard 66mm x 91mm (for 66 x 89) 

Mayday Games Premium Sleeves (Premium) 63.5mm x 88mm
Dragon Shield Perfect Fit - insert for Magic cards, type sleeve

Paladin Board Game Sleeves: Percival (Standard Card Game Size) 63.5mm x 89mm
(55per pack) (90 microns thick) -- I haven't used these for anything yet.

I purchased Game Genic Standard card supply sleeves but have not yet used them.

I have had Mayday Games Premium and regular sleeves for years. They are cheaper, and are pretty good sleeves. They are cheaper by count and do a good job. I like the feel of other sleeves more. More importantly, the Mayday sleeves have been inconsistent  in size than other sleeves.

The Paladin Sleeves came with a game - THe Witcher: Old World I think. I haven't used them for anything yet.




Loki Approved!
