Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to our dear readers of the Artellium Post and more broadly to the entire Cross The Ages Family!

As the year 2024 draws to a close, we felt it was important to take a moment to look back on the events that marked this year that is coming to an end. Indeed, we wanted to take stock together, or recap all the actions that have been accomplished, but also all those that still remain to be accomplished. Needless to say, the year 2025 promises to be a sporty one, so put on your best sneakers and let's go!!!

Pssssst 🤫🤭… Santa left a little gift in our shoes for 5 of you!!

But before we reveal what it's all about, let's take a look back at a year marked by challenges met, moments of alternating difficulty and resilience, memorable victories, unexpected surprises and ambitious goals that are getting closer on the horizon.

The year 2024 has been a challenging time for the entire gaming industry, and Cross The Ages was no exception. However, thanks to a close-knit team focused on the essentials, the project has been able to face these challenges with resilience, limiting the impacts on its development. 

Despite some constraints, particularly financial or community ones, we note that each decision was taken in the interest of the project, its sustainability, its users and its proper functioning.

Here are the highlights of this eventful year:

• The listing of the $CTA Token on several exchange platforms has made it easier for a maximum number of users to purchase.
• The many videos of “Arise”, the upcoming game, promise an exceptional experience.
• Rift Season 3, which had a hugely successful pre-sale, has rekindled community enthusiasm.
• The Heroes' Legacy, initially planned for Marseille, was finally held online, bringing together more than 1,000 participants during the live broadcasts.
• The Portal V2 update, which brought significant improvements to simplify the management of user assets.

The Cross The Ages team is approaching 2025, as a new year that is emerging with optimism and ambition. This new year promises to be a major turning point in the Cross The Ages adventure, with key milestones in perspective:

• The release of the RPG “Arise”, highly anticipated by the community.
• The physical publication of Volume 2, which will enrich the narrative universe and delight fans.
• The publication of the cards in physical collection, which already excites fans.
• Launching Lands and the Auction House via Portal V2.
• And many other equally exciting projects that will mark the year.

We firmly believe that the hardest part is behind us. Cross The Ages is ready to take on the next challenges, to continue to evolve, and to write new chapters of its history, always more ambitious, always bigger.

For Artellium Post, 2024 has been a year of building and progress. Since opening our site in March, we have had many interesting experiences and climbed many ladders:

• Over 100 articles have been published, covering all the latest Cross The Ages news.
• An exceptional partnership was created with “King” BabaVoss, who brought us his coaching expertise for the TCG.
• The creation of audios to accompany our articles, now available on our website and on Spotify, to make our content accessible to those who don't like reading or simply don't have time to read.
• Internationalization of our content, with a translation of the site into English, to broaden our audience.

None of this would have been possible without your loyal support. In 2025, we will continue our efforts to better inform and serve you. We will bring you even more novelties and surprises to make your experience in the unique universe of Cross The Ages the best possible.

For once, we are going to tell you about our private club, the “True Believers Club”, which is our pride and joy, without any pretension.

Indeed, since March 2024, the date of the creation of the Artellium Post site, we are very happy to count on the presence of more and more members in our True Believers Club (CTB).

Those we like to call the Believers (in reference to Sami's words), are today, and we thank them for their trust, more than 31 members. Much more than a simple club, it is a real family, composed of fans from the very beginning (or even a little later 😅) who are united by their shared passion for Cross The Ages.

These people are neither matrixed fanboys nor hypnotized care bears. They are responsible people, who are committed to an incredible project that is built and imagined over the long term. They are aware of the difficulties, as well as the opportunities and they have chosen to see the glass half full, rather than half empty. 

Life is a matter of perception, and we are clear about the fact that we cannot force or convince anyone to see the world through our glasses. However, we try as best we can to highlight what needs to be highlighted in order to move forward hand in hand with Cross The Ages and all the wonderful people who make up the team. The human adventure of this project has already objectively enriched us all on a human level.

Dear Believers, thanks to your commitment with us, the CTB has continued to grow.

The quizzes, the charades, the quotes, the vocals (abnormally long 🤭), the news, the lore, the information on supplies… and the many moments of delirium, are all precious memories that we want to share with you for a long time to come. Each of you is unique and very dear to us.

Your contribution also represents a major support for the Artellium Post, which operates independently. Thank you for allowing us to continue to evolve and write the success of Cross The Ages. Together, we will make Cross The Ages a success on all levels: human, gaming, literary, cinematographic, etc. It's a plan, success is only a matter of time!

Let's take up the Challenge!!! See you in a few years. ❤️

You are the beating heart of Cross The Ages, but you are also the driving force that keeps us going at Artellium Post.
