The Gun Games - A BL inspired card game - WIP

I have made up a 2 player card game!
I wondered if you can take Borderlands on the go (apart from the iOS/Andriod/PC version) and decided to make a card game based off of it (I also wondered if somebody has already wondered this). Includes the randomized gun system, red flavor text, money, eridium, and a certain CL4P-TP...

You will need:
Pieces of paper
Dice (2 is recommended)
Pencil
Printer

So, here are the rules (All in spoilers as not to take up space *wink* (Oh wait it's not that kind of spoiler tag nvm Can somebody tell me how to put them all in a little box?))

Setup:
To start, make at 16 blank equally sized rectangles on a piece of paper. To do so, you can fold in half ->, fold in half v, fold in half ->, then v again. Cut them all out. Make more if desired, and if you rather a quicker game. On a separate piece of paper, make some small money cards, 1x1 cm. Hand out an amount to each player (again, make more if desired). I recommend 10 each. Now, more cards! Use the same method as before to make red flavor text cards. On each, create a red text, and assign some properties to it, ex. Red Text: Strip the Flesh, Properties: Increased gun damage +2. BTW you each have 20 hp.

Gameplay:
To start take a card. Roll your dice. Take the value and that is now your gun damage. Write it down on your card. Roll 1 die now. Take the value and that is now your gun accuracy. Roll your dice again. Take the value, divide it by 4 (if lower than 1 then don't) and that is now your gun reload speed. Name you gun anything, draw if you'd like.
Ex. Psycho Gun
Gun Dmg.: 5
Gun Accuracy: 5
Gun Reload Speed: 1
Drawing: /---: (Oh yeah, ASCII art time)

Here is what the stats mean.
Gun Dmg: How much damage is done to a player.
Gun Accuracy: Chances of hitting.
How it works?
Roll a dice. If the value is equal to or less than your gun accuracy, it hits.
Gun Reload Speed: Turns to take before can shoot gun again.

Roll a die again and that is the gun cost. If you can afford it, great, then buy it and hand your money to the desk ie. put it in a separate pile. You wanna sell an existing gun? Half the cost, hand it to the desk, and take your money back.

Now, some fun >:D

Some Fun (aka Gameplay Part 2):
You must venture out into the Borderlands. Which means you must roll your die.
What to do:
If it is...
1: Oh look it's a CL4P-TP (or if it's BL2, oh look the last existing CL4P-TP ever, nice to meet you). He gives you a red flavor text card. Apply it to your gun or keep it in your inventory.
2: Oh look it's some Eridium in some Bandit's locker. Imma loot it. Adds 10 dollars to your inventory.
3: Oh look it's Doctor Zed. So bloody. He heals you. +1 HP.
4: Oh look it's Marcus. He gives you a red flavor text card. Apply it to your gun, but you can't keep it. Marcus is cheap like that.
5: Oh look it's money. +5 dollars.
6: Oh look it's... THE ENEMY!!! KILL KILL KILL KILL!!!!one111eleven!!11.
You shoot him. Do what is stated in the stats section of Gameplay part 1.

Objective:
Spoiler: Find the other person and OBLITERATE HIM IN HIS FACE AND KILL KILL KILL!!!one11

Hope you enjoy, I really like this idea, and appreciate it if you don't copy ie. tell your friends that you made up a card game and you claim it's yours (unless you had this idea before me).
Thanks!
