During a game of Project Aleutian, there are several different types of cards that you will encounter during play. One of the most important are crystal contracts. Crystal contracts gain you crystals (resources) during the game in exchange for prosperity (victory points) at the end of the game.

The top banner of the card shows the different crystals you would collect for having the crystal contract in your play area. The possible crystals on the contracts include the six national crystals (lodelazuli, living emerald, burnt pyrite, scorching heliodor, fused amethyst, and raze ruby) or a wild crystal. Wild crystals allow you to have your pick of the six national crystals. Having a good source of income is important as you try to acquire valuable cards in your pursuit of the stone cloud, but you pay back your lenders with the riches you acquire in pursuit of the stone cloud at the end of your campaign.

Since Project Aleutian is still a prototype, the graphic design, layout, and art on the cards are preliminary and subject to change.
