It's a mixture of Ludy Lescott and Contemplative (?) tarot. I think it's Ludy Minors and Contemplative Majors.

Arcanum - a boardgame using tarot
It's a mixture of Ludy Lescott and Contemplative (?) tarot. I think it's Ludy Minors and Contemplative Majors.

I was recently in a Game store in Berkeley and Lo Scarabeo had a game out based on the Fey Tarot as well. It had the Fey and at least one other deck mixed in.

Thanks Rodney. It will be interesting to see if that's the case and if I can get my hands on one.

Oh, and the cards are regular LoS size if I remember correctly.

That sounds like the one Aerin saw ? going by images on the site she linked.I was recently in a Game store in Berkeley and Lo Scarabeo had a game out based on the Fey Tarot as well. It had the Fey and at least one other deck mixed in.

I am now the proud owner of the board games - we do a lot of gaming, so they won't be bought in vain!
The Arcanum deck is 90% Initiatory Tarot of the Golden Dawn, just cards with nudity (e.g. Lovers, Star) are replaced with cards from Ludy Lescot, as well as some random others, for example the Aces. If used as a Tarot deck, I think there is a kind of break because Ludy is in these soft dark blue hues, whereas Initiatory is quite bright and crisp. Since there are few Ludys, I don't think it really matters though.
The deck is supposed to be "family friendly" ... in my book, nudity wouldn't be much of an issue, slightly gory cards like the Queen of Swords with the traditional severed head and the bloody sword more so, but they left her untouched! Ah, the dangers of a bare butt!

ETA: The Majors have green backs, whereas the Minors have red ones - good for a boardgame, bad for readings!

Fairy Land is a card game only (no board). It features many characters from the Fey, but there is nothing left of the Tarot structure. A lot of action cards are also included.
