Cards is a pretty big subject... What do you want to know about them?

Does that monster look like a UFO?

Nope, Seifer never becomes a permanent ally. You only get him in the Dollet mission. There was supposed to be a "FF8 Gaiden", where your team was Seifer, Fujin, and Raijin, but that disappeared after one trailer. Probably either went over-budget, or lost steam.

thanks for the information. you know I'm really good at cards but the only disadvantage in me is the PLUS rule I always try to understand the way to use it but it's not use. If anyone can teach me how to use PLUS rule.I'll be grateful.

Thanks

There're two types of Plus rule: Plus, and Plus Wall.

Plus works by adding the adjacent values of cards. You can use your own cards as a second side, but in order to take any of your opponents cards, you have to form one part of the Plus with theirs. That card, once flipped, can capture cards in the same way as the Same rule.

For the purposes of Plus, numbers have their value, and "A" is 10. So, if I have Edea (T=A L=3, R=A, B=3), and I put her between a card with a 1 on the bottom, and an 8 on the top or right sides, it'll add up to 11 in both cases. Both add to the same number, so then you capture the cards via Plus, which can then Combo.

The other variant, Plus Wall, is reasonably rare (I think it only appears in Lunar Base and Esthar). Basically, outside edges are treated as having a value of A, and you can then make Plus combinations with that wall. Very tough to do, but it does offer you a chance of protecting cards that have low values, by using their low sides against the wall, and using their higher values to sneak in the Plus.

Good luck!

As I understood it, that 'Gaiden', 'Garden' or 'Gaijin' thing was actually a fan-made animation using the polygon models from the PC version of the game.

I saw the vid in '04, and recall reading that explanation.

It wouldn't be too hard to do so, so I imagine you're just as likely to be right as me, Orca.

Though I've really no clue. I mean, Tonberries in Trabia? No clue at all.

Tonberries in Trabia, no way it's only in Odin's place. there's no clue at all.
