I'm afraid I don't get SirPeebles version at all. Why would playing KC-KC-Beggar-Beggar-Trader have any significance for Fedoums? Trashing Coppers with a Trader doesn't gain you any Silvers.

KC-KC-Beggar-Fortress-Trader wouldn't do any silvery good either, by the way - the Fortress would have to be KCd after the Trader(s).

You play beggar with trader in hand to gain silvers instead of coppers. So you'd gain 18 silvers with KC/KC/Beggar/Beggar/Trader.

But not 18 silvers in hand.

You still gain 18 silvers for feodums which increases their value by 6 each...

That's very true.  I was thinking if you could manage to get KC/Trader/Silver/Silver/Silver in a later turn, you turn 3 silver into 9.  Which feeds Feodum even more.

This is worse than using the Beggars though.  You would play Trader three times on three Silvers, gaining 9 Silver but losing 3 for a net gain of 6.

And with your one buy, grab a Copper, but reveal Trader for a 19th Silver instead  ;)

With the fortress example, you'd get even more.  You would effectively play Trader 6 times, getting 4 Silvers each time for a total of 24 Silvers.  But hey, I was trying to modify Qvist's into a beneficial use of KC-KC-Beggar-Beggar.

So you trash Fortress 6 times for 24 silver, then still get to play it with KC, getting three more cards and six extra actions?  Dang.

Ah, right, King's Courts *may* choose actions and don't have to as Throne Rooms. (So you don't have to play the Trader as a fifth card.)

Guys, your annoyance is contributing to the lack of memes.  I hope you find this a suitable response.

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?
