A problem with all the cards is the font used in the name. It has readability issues and could be improved. Second, the Resources and Restrictions listed along the left side of the cards are printed vertically. That's hard to read without turning the cards or craning your head, and this text is often required to tell if you can play a card or not.
Locations form the 'map' where the game takes place. Characters move between adjacent locations, and can search them for equipment and supporting characters. I like the graphic card frame and the prominence of the image.
Main Characters are under the direct control of the players. They move, attack, and search for supporting characters and items. These frames look interesting, but the flavor text overlaps some of the graphic elements making it harder to read.
Supporting Characters are found by main characters and are used by the different factions to win the game. The contrast on the card is nice - they look really plain, and wildly different than the other character cards for easy distinction.
Events are played for temporary buffs or penalties. I like the design but the texture under the effect text makes it harder to read than necessary.
Items are used by the Humans and the Predators. The Human Item frame is very solid. I like the graphics and the texture doesn't interfere with the Effect Text and the Flavor Text. The Predator frame has wasted Effect Text space, and the texture underlays the Name and Flavor Text entirely.
These cards were redesigned with the release of the Resurrection expansion, and to match the Terminator CCG which used the same rule system.
