GURC InterVarsity	Top 5 Steps for Newbies to Take Play through the Novice's trainer campaign. The Novice campaign will give you a good knowledge of some of the game's most basic concepts, as well as giving you a glimpse into Chron X's™ backstory. Be very careful in trading. You may want to create a special deck just to hold the cards you are willing to trade. Keep your rares and very rares off of the trading table for a while. You may have stumbled upon a very pricey card which some players may gladly relieve you of in exchange for chump change. Learn about the different cards available in Chron X. The Chron X web site has a list available of all the cards in the game. You may want to print out this list (if you happen to have a printer and plenty of extra paper). Read up, because you may get ideas on interesting combos to play or cards that you may want to look for in trades. Learn proper Core etiquette. Nothing is quite as annoying as a player who hits the challenge button without ever making a simple inquiry such as, "Hey, are you up for a game?" There are dozens of other common pitfalls unsuspecting newbies can fall into. Try to avoid them, or you may find yourself with an undesirable reputation which will come back to haunt you later on. Work your way through the Desperado program. There are ten levels of challenges to face which will hopefully teach you about the game. Plus, you might win yourself some useful cards along the way. For more information about the Desperado program, see the links page. Got some tips you think belong here? Email lead researcher Kosh K95x at kosh @ gurc . net with your suggestions.
