The Cards

______________________________

Capped Cards revolves around anime and for the most part individual anime episodes and movies. Most of the cards will fall into five different categories:

Regular CardsRegular cards make up the majority of cards you will be collecting, they are worth one and feature individual episodes or anime as well as the openings and endings.
Movie CardsMovie cards are worth two and feature parts of our favorite anime movies. These cards are worth 2.
Intermission CardsMost series feature "eye-catches" at the middle of the episodes sort of like an intermission. The intermission decks feature these images and are the resident puzzle decks as well. They like the movie cards are worth 2.
Specials CardsSpecials cards feature the lovely specials in anime, some may be in the form of OVA's others might be DVD specials some may be specials run in place of regular episodes. Because they were so special and rare in the series we are keeping it the same here and these cards are worth 3.
Outtake CardsOuttake cards feature images from a series that didn't make the final cut into the episode decks. Outtake decks will feature between 5 to 10 episodes worth of outtakes and like the special cards are worth 3.
Capped CardsThis section is mostly related to things specific to capped. Member, Card Maker, Event and Affiliate cards will all fall under this category, you can think of it as the miscellaneous category if you'd like. Card worth in this section will vary depending upon the deck.

Card Anatomy

______________________________

Now you may be going well if there are all these different types of cards how am I supposed to know which card falls into each category. Well below are examples of the different types of cards we talked about above as well as a little break down of how you can tell which deck it belongs to.


Above is a regular card, the easiest way to disinguish it from other types is that it is the only one that will have a solid color overlaying part of the card. Other important features are the deck name which on the above card would be kuroshitsuji, now keep in mind some series titles will be shortened so make sure you are using the deck name and not necessarily the series name. The number following the deck name is the episode number this card features episode01. Now on opening and ending decks it will say either OP or END instead of a number value. The last set of numbers is the card number in that particular deck, this card happens to be 06 in the kuroshitsuji01 deck. So for the full title of the card it would be kuroshitsuji01_06.


Above is a move card, movie cards will be the only one to feature a solid white overlay none of the regular decks will ever feature white only colors. The set up is very similar to the regular decks, the first part is the deck name in this case ffviiac. The first set of numbers is the part of the movie, movies are broken up into 20 minute intervals, this card is from part two. The last number is the number the card is in that particular deck, so the full title would be ffviiac02_12.


Special, Outtakes and Event decks will all feature the above set up and since these decks are worth three they have the added bonus of have 3 different colors or shades as the overlay, they also have a white border instead of the regular black. The setup is similiar to the rest of the cards in that the first part is the deck name: sailormoon the second part the special number: SP01 and the last the positon in the deck: 07. Now all specials won't necessarily include the SP since some will have actual episode numbers, just like events will go in numerical order of when they happened.

Those are the basics to telling how much each card is worth as well as which type it falls into. Now the only exception will be cardmaker cards but those will all be slightly different and you will just have to take note of the deck name to distinguish those.
