Card Types
The Universal Fighting System has five different types of cards:
- Characters – A card which represents the combatant whose role the player is currently assuming. Character cards contain information about the character's hand size, special abilities, symbols/alignment, and starting vitality.
- Attacks – Orange-bordered cards which represent attempts to directly inflict damage on an opponent. Successful attacks that deal damage are added to one's momentum, which helps towards enhancing certain attacks and other cards.
- Actions – Blue-bordered cards played from the hand which allow the character to perform some non-attack action or maneuver.
- Foundations – Grey-bordered cards which signify intensive training and reserves of inner strength upon which a character can draw to power attacks or abilities.
- Assets – Green-bordered cards which represent places or objects which are in play.
There are also split cards, which have two types and two possible effects. When the card is played, the player must decide which type the card will be.

Famous quotes containing the words card and/or types:
“Mothers are not the nameless, faceless stereotypes who appear once a year on a greeting card with their virtues set to prose, but women who have been dealt a hand for life and play each card one at a time the best way they know how. No mother is all good or all bad, all laughing or all serious, all loving or all angry. Ambivalence rushes through their veins.”
—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
“Our major universities are now stuck with an army of pedestrian, toadying careerists, Fifties types who wave around Sixties banners to conceal their record of ruthless, beaverlike tunneling to the top.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
