Here is my card for the week.

5 copies of Scrapyard on top of 5 copies of Forge.
It has 2 uses: providing junk to trash with forge, and being a gold or Duchy for 4 with sufficient deck control. It is not a lab for 4 - more like a ruined village in draw power as it produces 2 junk cards each play. Hope you like it!

My weird idea of the week:

Yep. A strange trash traveller type line with crazy and explosive combos. Trumpet as draw, violin as gains, harp to really kick things off and grand piano as payload. FAQ: Cards under Grand Piano are not part of your deck: they do not count for end of game scoring. There are 4 of each Instrument in the trash.

Looks like Orchestra and Harp can steal cards from under someone's Grand Piano. Is it intended?
It won't be easy to to activate Grand Piano

They can’t because the cards under piano are trashed, but not “in the trash”. Also it’s not meant to be easy to activate but harp makes it much easier - trashing even a lower card to gold to hand then using orchestra.

Relic Excavators - $4
Action
Exile a non-Victory card from the Trash. If it is an...
Action card, play it twice from Exile, leaving it there.
Treasure card, +2 Coffers.
Copper, discard all Action cards from your Exile.
(Heirloom: Worn Shovel)

Worn Shovel - $4

Treasure - Heirloom
Trash a card from your hand. If it is an...
Action card, gain 2 Horses.
Treasure card, +$2, +1 Buy.
Victory card, gain an Action card costing $4 or less.

Trying out something unusual. The Heirloom is necessary for the Action card to function. I am not sure if the Heirlooms reward for trashing an Action is enough to incentivize it. Thinking of allowing the Heirloom to trash from play. Feedback is appreciated.

Wow, great idea! I love it. That heirloom is really too strong though - it would lead to some extremely, extremely quick games. I like how it’s a treasure so you can’t trash an action and regain it in the same turn…..it stays so the opponent can use it to. I also like how shovel can gain excavator. However, the heirloom would lead to some extremely warped and quick games, even faster than donate or chapel, maybe making your card undergained

An idea: make it only allowed to trash cards that there isn’t a copy of in the trash. But then it will be luck based whether you trash the estate between the players on turn 1 and 2 - so maybe don’t allow a trash if there are two or more copies in the trash.
