Steam for Dummies?

    Back when CH was part of the Humble Bundle, I created a Steam account to try some of the other games offered. And now that the Steam client for CH is coming soon, I'm trying to understand how the different Steam features work.

    These are the games I've played on Steam:
    SolForge
    BloodRealm
    War of Omens
    Talisman: Prologue (a kind soul gave me their extra product key)

    War of Omens I play through their own website, but I use Steam to log in. However, Steam doesn't list it as a game I've ever played. :confused:

    I can't find any achievements for any of these games. Do they not have any?

    I have two trading cards for Talisman (actually, two copies of one card), but that card is tagged "Not Tradable". :confused: Reading the FAQ for trading cards, it sounds like the only way to earn them is by spending money. Does it only count money spent through Steam, or does it count all money spent on this account?

    And what in the world are "groups"?

    Groups are like forums, I think, for specific games or groups.

    Achievements are set up by the individual games, as I understand it, so they may not have achievements.

    Mostly cards are earned by playing the games in question, or from special events like the summer sales, I think.
