I'm slowly becoming heavily invested in STEEM MONSTERS. I'm a fan.

Thanks for that information @trisquelwhare. I'll take a look at PeakMonsters. I've just been looking at SteemPeak but found a bug that prevented me from doing what I wanted to do there but @asgarth was on it right away. 😁

they would like to see other sites and other games spring up around the blockchain-based cards, to use the same card assets in different games.

I didn't realise they were talking about using the same cards. I thought they were just referring to different games. That does sound like a great idea.

Do you know if there will be a way to delegate cards for play by people who know what they are doing? I watched a dummy game being played this morning and had no clue as to what was going on. 😂

Yes, I have heard that this feature is coming, but from what I understand it won't be in the Alpha. We may have to wait until the Beta Edition for that, unfortunately. I do know of people who are already leveling up sets of cards to all of the different levels, so that when the functionality to be able to delegate cards happens, they will have the stock on hand for any possible configuration of cards required. 😉

Could you explain what you mean by that @trisquelwhare or point me in the direction for where I can learn about it?

Is there anywhere that covers the basics for people who've never played these games before such as what constitutes a set and what constitutes a level? Are there any very basic tutorials do you know? 😊

Sure, I'm no expert on these things, but I have been reading a lot and watching all the videos etc about the game. I'm also working on the SteemMonsters Wiki, which was started by @carn. Basically, you need multiple cards of the same name in order to level them by combining them together (something you can't really do with physical cards, haha). The sets are divided into colours, also known as elements, or Splinters in the lore of the game. The colours are green, blue, red, black, white, and gold. Beyond that there are the four "rarity levels" as well, being common, rare, epic, and legendary. Also, there are the two "classes", being monsters and summoners.

So if I say that I have a Level 4 Rare Azmarian Medusa  card, then I will know that this blue Rare monster has been combined with 14 other Medusa's to make it a Level 4 card. Does that make sense? Oh, one thing I forgot to mention is the "finish" of the cards, which is either "Regular" or "Gold Foil" (GF), and the latter will only be able to fight in battles and tournaments with other "Gold Foil" cards, and vice versa. The GF tournaments, presumably, will be where the big prizemoney can be made in the game.

Does that make sense?

Not on first reading but I've copied and pasted this so I can look at alongside my cards.

Many thanks!

Someone in the SM community (sorry, I can't remember who it was) has made this awesome reference card to tell you how many cards you would need to combine together for each level. Maybe this will make things a bit clearer for you.

OK. Thank you @trisquelwhare. 😁
