========================================================
We got busy!
First, there is a witness server. But also a large collection to behold.
Since mid-may we have added 111 new unique cards, for a total now of 140 unique cards in your booster collection.
The game already had 34 unique cards in contracts and 37 uniques in starters.
We are more than doubling our content!
Every card can also be found as Elite with superior powers. This means that the total collection now has more than 350 references of different elite and non elite cards.
All that to find... and trade away!
========================================================
Witnessing now!
There is a witness server live and running.
You can check the post about it here and if you like what this means you can:
========================================================
Boosters!
350 references in our alpha collection... but even more cards to trade!
350 references... let's get back to this number!
We are barely 6 weeks after being playable and now we already have all that.
Nearly 60 new references per week!
But there is more!
With players making their own upgrade decisions thanks to dynamic upgrades of weapons, armors, installations and vehicles, and later dynamic leveling of your characters, this can end with many different cards again to make, discover, and trade.
Will you increase research speed of buildings, spaceships or vehicles on that one?
Or reduce space to make room for other software in your computer room?
A new tool to explore our collection
To explore that we have provided a new companion:
the deck Expert Tool which will help you explore eXode collection.
You can access it here!
Single cards trading!
People have been able to trade starters and contract packs for two months but we are now adding single cards trading. This will make our collection features complete.
Single cards trading is added at the same time as booster opening.
... ok. So when is that?
Booster Opening on Thursday, 5 PM UTC!
Get ready to discover your cards!
The countdown is here!

Our Most Important Event so Far
This is truly a pivotal moment for eXode.
This milestone took much longer than planned but has so much more content now.
And this is great! Because every single content in your alpha boosters is going to last for years.
This kind of quality is extremely important.
Many values are going to be tested and adjusted for balance, but the variety in your collection is just addressing some of the features in eXode - combat, exploration, colonization, and colony management.
For instance, only yesterday, I added some buildings but also three different software cards - such as the Identification Matrix.
Or the very important Rimscan (Rim standing for "Outer Rim", frontier worlds to colonize)...
But also characters with the Triskan survivors with Sarah and that one:
But I also released another of our planned faction, the Flesh Cult.
============================================================
The Flesh Cult is a twisted religion of "self enlightment by pleasure".
They may sound like maniacs but they have a much deeper meaning and objective. They consider the body is a sacred temple, they respect life - when it serves their needs of course - and they favor 'synthetic purity', a combination of keeping the sacred in your body but actually adding perfectly bio-engineered elements.
The Cult thrives in the highest circles with extended bio-engineering and what they call "synthetic arts". Their leaders perfectly embody the Arts, going as much synthetic as they can yet looking like perfectly made humans.
In eXode, the Flesh Cult opens a new mechanic in population control - religion.
Once citizens are recruited into the Cult you only have to make sure that the Leader stays loyal, and he/she may make others loyal to you. The Cult Leader can receive orders to deliver "speeches" in your favor.
But watch out - they may have a different logic than yours... and different priorities.
The Secret Agenda trait may appear on their leader to help you see that!
What is next?
Booster Opening is this Thursday but after that I am going back 100 % to programming game features and deploying our version E.
And then we move to colonization!
Thank you for your patience again - the community has been extremely supportive.
I know the days have been long and we still have so much to deploy in June.
With so many unique cards, a witness server and a new tool, we are moving forward as fast as I can. Yet I would hope to go even faster. In any case, the game is what will be improved next! Game game game!
As a reminder, the countdown to Booster Opening is here:

==============================================
EXODE is a space colonization game on HIVE.
Playing it needs a 8 USD Starter and the game accepts HIVE coins, STEEM coins (ending in June for STEEM) and Paypal. The price are going to increase 2 days after Booster Opening!
It is currently in playable alpha. You can discover the game with its concept video or its alpha footage!
