AFTER : THE BOARD GAME.

English Online Appendix :

UPDATE : 13/06/2025.

 

The After: The Board Game Appendix supplements the game rules with more extensive, more precise explanations of certain game terms, clarifications or game mechanics.

You should only refer to it if you're in any doubt, or if you'd like to learn more about the application of a particular game rule.

 

The appendix, which is available in French and in this page in English, and also in the Basic Edition box, is a game aid available to all. During your games, this 200-page booklet is kept by the game leader, to help him with his various tasks.

Unlike your personal management book, this one serves as a source of knowledge and know-how, just like a good library, in your various management tasks to be carried out throughout your game.

 

Like a dictionary, the Game Appendix contains all the terms and abbreviations used in the game, arranged in alphabetical order.

It contains a wealth of explanations, examples and additional game rules.

 

This dictionary is essential in certain situations.

 

Don't hesitate to consult it on this page of the site, using the drop-down menus on this page.

 

It is regularly updated and expanded.

«1D20» :

1D20 is the abbreviation for a 20-sided die.
The 20-sided die is used in random rolls and certain phases of the game turn (GT), as well as in hand-to-hand combat (ATK1).
A D20 result in ATK1 combat is an elite success (see term: - "Elite success").
You can also use this die for other mechanisms during the game, for example to indicate the number of LP's (cfr term: - "Life Points") a military formation of a certain unit type (FMCTU) would have left, during the different sequences of a combat.

ABI (ABBREVIATION) :

ABI stands for agriculture and breeding sector infrastructure. 

 

Please also refer to the appendix for the term "Infrastructure" of this type.

"AFTER" (CURRENCY):

After" is the game's conventional currency. 

When you receive income from your territories or income from resource GCC cards, and pay for various purchases, this amount is always expressed in this way.

 

These should be stored in your personal filing cabinet in the insert designed for this purpose, and will be used throughout your game.

Afters are available in denominations of 10,000 / 5,000 / 2,000 / 1,000 / 500 / 200 / 100 / 50 / 10 / 5 / 3 / 2 / 1).

The total value of the "Afters" in your Victory Conditions and VP sheet is used to award VP's at the end of the game (phase 16).

 

In official tournaments, this system is not allowed: players must use a personal financial form (see term: "Financial form").
