2) A GAME THAT RESPECT PEOPLE:
I'm myself a board game/CCG player and a collector's since I was born (almost...), so I know that some "things" must be respected for people and for the game itself to have a long running lifetime ...
It's a question of trust.
Like some online game that are "free", that's a good thing of course..., but with some sadness finally, it's always the guy/or Miss that have spend a lot of money to acquire the "ultimate weapon", to "accelerate his technology" or other tips etc... that finally will (perhaps at %...) win the game.
In my game it's not the case...
Everyone can win because if you win... it means that you have played it well !
So some "Game code of conduit" that I'll engaged for it :
1- A card will not be re-printed or if it'll be ... it will be reprinted with a new illustration or due to new rules erratas that must be applicated to it.
A new illustration will means that a Artist will be paid for his work.
A re-print with the same pic is not "really the same"....
2- The Printing delay of a new products will respect each players "pockets".
It means that the delay between a new products will keep:
a playability of fun running delay for the product.
Players must have the time to enjoy it, to play it several times and to have fun.... it's a game !
Finally that'll means that a product will be played during several months before to see a new extension.
3- Some products will be available for free to complete the game and for the "pockets" of everyone.
4. There'll be no "Complete Promo Set" available.
A promo card will be shortly available and will be not re-printed (Except point 1 (See above))...
A promo card will keep so his "original value" because "Promo"....
It's finally the same for a Stamp collector's or a real CCG game that respect collector's.....

3) EXPECTED RELEASE DATE ?:
Due to the "Pandemic Period" it was really not easy for me to me to work on it at 100%...
Due to the same problems of mostly people on our planet.
You must know so, that a big part is done; mainly "the Guideline", but as well some cards sets/rules (a part of them)/programming stuff and still have a bunch of things in my "brain" that I must "put on papers".
After this starting work, I must as well ...make some play testing parties, found illustrators, distributors and present surely the game in some exhibitions... so not sure to launch it yet in 2022.
The actual situation is as well no easy...
So stay tuned !
Thanks.

4) GAME DESCRIPTION:
So if you have seen above, "After: the Game" is a game that includes a Board game part and a CCG part. The CCG part happen only if there's a battle.
It's not really like you have finish to play a party of board game, you close the box, it was nice, see you next.
In "After;: the game" when you have finish a party of course it's finish but.. the results and perhaps other tiny things will allow you some "development" for the next parties...
Because..., you'll got your "own representative card" that represent you to the other community players and this one can evolve !
It'll be your "After: the Game Player Member card".
No more details for the moment, anyway it still a idea somewhere in a corner of my brain that will be exploited !
