You've got one more week with no Gran Penalty for losing (will keep it up until monday after next to make it match the ranking time) and Free SET 11! Now's the time to introduce a friend to Alteil when they can start with an entire set of free cards!
Remember, for the next two weeks, there will be no Gran penalty for a loss iin the weekly gran. That means the more you play, the more gran you get! Now, if I was smart, I might have announced that on a MONDAY so the weekly gran would make sense. To make up for the fact I'm apparently not, next week's Ranking will inlcude last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Tonight I will give the normal gran out for all matches played during the pre-release period, from Friday the 12th to Thursday the 18th.
As you all know by now, the
rights to Alteil reverted back to its original developers – a company called
Core Edge. As for Alteil US, after a
number of companies have tried to manage it, so I guess everyone’s been wondering
who’s next? Sony Online, maybe? Blizzard? Pets.com? As it turns out, they’ve decided to
leave it to… er, well… me, sort of.
So I formed a small gaming
startup with a buddy of mine from high school, who’s a software developer,
along with a few other developers he went to college with. This company is called ‘Apocoplay LLC.’ It’s pronounced like ‘Apocalypse’ and yes, I
know it’s not a great sign that I have to explain that every time. At least you know we’re more interested in
selling Alteil’s name than our own for now. And now that we have Alteil US,
what exactly are we going to DO with the thing?
I’m glad you asked…
SET 11 RETURNS FOR FREE – It’s one more chance to try Set 11
for free! How often do you get a whole Set for free? It will be in the shop for
two weeks. If you’ve got some friends you’ve wanted to get into Alteil, what
better time then now, when they’ll have the opportunity to have so many free
cards – like King of Mankind Verlaat and Chaos Form Annarose -- to get them
started?
NO GRAN PENALTY FOR
LOSING – Seems like a no-brainer. For the next two weeks, instead of getting +2
Gran for a win and -1 Gran for a loss from the weekly ranking Gran, there will
be no penalty for a loss! Play all you
want, and your weekly ranking Gran total will only go up and UP!
GOLD PACKS AND BOXES BACK
IN THE SHOP – Getting Gold Packs and Boxes approved was one of the first
changes I pushed for back when the game started. To celebrate, I’m putting them
all back up. And, the Gold Packs now have a lower price tag! 250 Gran for a guaranteed 3-star and in addition
to that 3-star, and a fair chance of more rare cards.
And don’t worry, if you
bought Gran earlier this week and spent it already, we’re not leaving you out
of the sale. We’ll be giving you some bonus Gran to thank you. If you haven’t gotten it by tomorrow, email
