When I saw this topic on the main page I could have sworn it said, "Babe Deck." lol  I had to look again and then I saw Babel.

What's with all the religious theme decks lately? Also, why is Monopoly Man Jesus a part of it?

I dunno...  That picture reminds me more of a scene from "There Will Be Blood"...

I don't see anything religious about this deck?

The name of the deck "and the concept art by the look of it) is designed and named after the biblical Tower of Babble.

Except that the tower in the Bible is also spelled "Babel"...  :))  But it adds a more modern twist to the Biblical story based on the artwork seen so far, appearing to take place at some point in the mid-late 19th century, possibly in the US or Europe.

I just placed my pre-order for two decks.  For those of you paying with PayPal who DON'T read Chinese, when the screen appears all in Chinese, there's a tiny link in the upper-right corner with a pull-down menu.  Click on that and you'll be offered the chance to see the page in English...

Wow, great colours and design. Thanks
What about the handling?
Title: Re: New Deck - Babel Deck
Post by: BiggerDee on February 12, 2013, 09:38:40 AM
Very nice, I will be in on these!

I swear, I just need a big bucket of money out in front of my house. Card designers and companies can just come by, drop a few decks in, and take some cash. That will make it much easier than having to order! :-)

Anything new out of USPC Custom handles very well - Magic Finish is the "great equalizer".  I love the custom work on it.  And yes, these handle very well.

But where's the fun in that?  Too lazy!  :))
