Cards can be played to accomplish a variety of tasks, such as gaining additional armies, spying on opponents, airlifting armies around, etc.

==Receiving Cards==

When you take an enemy or neutral territory, at the end of that turn you will receive a piece of a card. You can't get more, no matter how many territories you take.

Games can also be configured to give more than one piece per turn via the [[number of card pieces per turn]] setting. In this case, players who take a territory will always get exactly that number of pieces configured by that game each turn.

If a game has multiple types of cards included, the type of card(s) you get is determined randomly based on their [[Card weights|weight]]. It's also possible for game creators to configure [[Card minimums|minimums]] that remove the randomness, either partially or completely.

==Details==

The game creator can pick which cards will be available in their game, so be sure to check the game settings to know which types of cards you're dealing with.

Cards can be divided into any number of pieces. You cannot play a card until you have collected the entire card.

You may only hold onto a certain number of cards at one time, as defined by the [[maximum number of cards you can hold]] setting. Therefore, there can be occurances where you must use a card.

When you play a card, that card is consumed. Even if the card had no effect, you don't get your card back. For example, if you spy on a player who gets eliminated the same turn, the card is just wasted.
