Hi,

In all three of my nations, when I try to open a new card deck, I get this message:

You don't have room for 5 more cards! Divest some or upgrade your deck capacity below.

I then click on the upgrade link and the Do it button. I get this message:

Sadly you cannot afford to upgrade deck capacity for 1.00.

However, there is no information on how I can upgrade my deck capacity.

Junk or sell some cards to get money to pay for the upgrade. Or just to make room for the new decks.

As a matter of fact, can I ask something?

Is there a ceiling to the number of cards one can have (say, 5000)? Or you theoretically have unlimited space as long as you have the bank to expand?

Okay. Ty. That makes sense.

I'm not aware of a hard ceiling, but I think [v] and Fris know the card game better than I do.

You can't open packs or receive gifts if you are over capacity, but you can participate in the auction process. At this point, I don't believe there is a limit on the number of cards you can buy or sell. However, given that [violet] has pointed out that large collections strain the database, I would not be at all surprised to see a limit in the future.

It gets very expensive, very fast. Assuming you are a site supporter and get 100 card spaces in every expansion, it would cost 49,925.00 bank to hold 5000 cards. Just to get to 2500 costs 5525.00 bank.

Ahh, good, good. Thank you to both of you for the responses!

Have a good day!

I'm sure many of you have already run into this, but you can only have 45 unopened cards (9 unopened decks) at a time.
