Name a card that fits its name
« on: April 26, 2015, 05:23:45 am »

The thread is simple: Name a card from Dominion (go ahead, throw in Promos and Adventures!) where what the card does matches up with the name of the card. No explanation is really required. One card per post; someone else must post before you post again. Have at it!

For cards that particularly do not fit the name of the card, use a strikethrough when naming it.

I'll start us off.

Too bad Dominion doesn't have Gunpowder.

I was trying to think of a card that doesn't fit its name, but there aren't any. I mean, obviously what a minion should do is discard everyone's hand and draw 4 new cards.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

For quite a while I've been annoyed at Butcher and Stonemason.

A butcher takes something and cuts it up into pieces with a total value greater than the original object... which is what the card Stonemason does.

A mason takes smaller things (bricks/stone) and builds something worth much more out of them... which is what the card Butcher does (with coin tokens instead of bricks).
