Is it possible to open ferry/inheritance?

Ferry cannot target an Event, as an Event is not an Action Supply Pile.

You COULD open 7/3, by opening 5/2, using a Baker Token and Borrow to Inherit something that produces virtual Coin, then buying Ferry, but I don't think the other way around works.

Like this?

First hand is 5 Copper. Spend Baker token and Borrow to get to 7. But Travelling Fair, buy Ferry and put it on Death Cart, buy Death Cart. Top deck the Death Cart.

Second hand is Copper + Copper + Estate + Death Cart

Play the Death Cart and get 7, buy Inheritance.


Agh, the challenge got changed just as I posted this.  :'(

Man, that was hard. There has to be an easier solution than this.

Turn 1:

First hand is 5 Copper. Spend Baker token and Borrow to get to 7. Buy Travelling Fair, Mission, Poor House. Top deck it.

Mission turn is Necropolis, Poor House, Overgrown Estate, Hovel. Play Poor House. Borrow to buy Travelling Fair, Ferry on Band of Misfits, Alms to gain Death Cart. Top deck Death Cart and a Ruin.

Turn 2:

Hand is Copper, Copper, Death Cart, Ruined Village

Trash Ruined Village with Death Cart. $7 now, inherit Band of Misfits.

Aside: Inheriting Band of Misfits is awful, as the Estate would literally only be able to play as a Poor House. Inheritance does not transfer cost.

That's not literally true because you can play Ruins with Inherited Band Misfits and any card costing 3 or less with your Ferry token on it.
