This is an older thread that still doesn't have a fix:

http://www.wargear.net/forum/showthread/1520/Card_Reset

Right now there's no way to tell at what number the cards will reset.  This makes it impossible to plan for and (IMO) hinders strategy.

You can do it by looking at the designer - not that most people would know how to do this..   It really should be in the description.  Otherwise, it's just another piece of minutia  to put in the basic info part of a game page.

Regardless, it's affecting gameplay and has been requested a year ago...

When you click on the Cards tab it shows you the turn in amounts for the next 10 cashes and I'm not sure what the point of having a reset value that goes over 10 turn ins but there might me.
I agree, there should be a cards info section in the board area that says value and reset value at least.  Oh, I also used like 50 different terms for matching cards and that is because I'm special. 

What's the view on how this would best be fixed? Just show more card values on the Board About page / in the Player?

My personal opinion would be that the card range shows in the general board info screen (when you click on the map to create a game).

If we have our choice, I'd rather have it listed in the game info screen (because that's easier/more commonly accessed) than the board info screen.  It already shows "Next card set worth" and if it is ever going to reset, I'd rather have an ellipsis and then show where it would reset.  Example:

Next Card Set Worth        12, 13, 14, 15...30, 3, 4, 5

+1 to this format

Makes sense to have it on the game info screen and the board info screen

In the future card scales may get even more complicated.  Tom mentioned allowing cards to increment every few turns, and there might be the possibility of two ramp values. 

I think the easiest thing to do is to just show the same settings you see in the designer.  That will make it easy to accommodate any future card scale innovations.

I've updated the board About page to display as Boris suggested.

Speaking of expected card value - currently it  can't be found at all in the beta player.

It's displayed in the hint text below the command bar.
