Dominion: Pestilence
The following rules, mats and cards are in play every time you use at least one card from Pestilence.
There is an infinite supply of plague tokens.
Each plague token you carry adds $1 to the cost of buying victory cards.
Charity Mat During your buy phase you may discard one treasure card. If you do, place a coin on the Charity mat and discard one of your plague tokens.
At the end of your turn, if you alone have the most plague tokens you may take a coin from the charity mat.
Privy $0* ACTION VICTORY
0VP. When you play this return it to the privy pile. You may discard one of your plague tokens.
During your buy phase you may gain one privy for free without using up a buy.
Diseases $0* PERMANENT DURATION ATTACK. Deck of ten different cards. Shuffle and place face down. You acquire the top Disease when you gain/buy the last card of a Supply pile for the first time. It goes directly into your play area and takes effect from the start of your next turn. It is not discarded during cleanup and instead takes place at the start of each of your turns until a new Disease enters play. This does not use up an ACTION. If there is already a Disease in play when you acquire one, the Disease already in play is then put to the bottom of the Diseases pile. Thus only one Disease is allowed in play at one time. The Disease is not an ACTION TREASURE or VICTORY card. It does go into your deck at the end of the game.

Grateful for all comments/criticisms/suggestions!! :)
The set is intended to use all previous mechanics already established in Dominion including adding the new Plague tokens which make buying Victory cards harder, so you will have to find a way around that if the Plague strikes! You would be best off having Coin and Victory tokens around as well. It is a set intended for players experienced with all previous sets!
Vislor:
One thing I've already thought of changing is that the Diseases are acquired when you buy/gain the last card of any pile costing $3 or more.
ETA - but maybe it's fine as is?
popsofctown:
As you have it written, I wouldn't anticipate anyone gaining any diseases until the Province pile is emptied in over 90% of your games. I imagine that's not what you're going for, but maybe it is.
Vislor:
Why's that?? The Diseases are a benefit to whoever gains them as they attack everybody but that player. I imagine some of the more vindictive strategists would rather empty a pile quicker just to get the Disease!
