This thread is an extension of the old "More games with fan-made cards" thread, except that I am including here a list of cards I've played with several times and liked. They're not always necessarily the original version, but I will note whenever it isn't the original version.
Also in replies throughout this thread (and as handy links to more fan cards), I'll be using the following abbreviations:
LFE =
LastFootnote's EnterpriseCRR =
Cookielord's Roots and Renewal or
Cookielord's other cards.
ASP =
Asper's CardsFGG =
Fragasnap's GreedGRHO =
General Ramos' Holy OrderSVS =
Silverspawn's ReverenceRSG =
my Resurgence, LAo= other cards by me.
oFM = other fan-made (I'll only elaborate if it isn't already listed in the OP)
While I'm linking, here's another
big list of other people's fan-made cards with mock-ups.
Here's the list of other people's fan-made cards I've played with several times (5 minimum) and like:
(in backwords cost order)
Warden
$7 - Action
Choose two in any order: Draw until you have 6 cards in hand; play an Action card from your hand; trash a card from your hand and gain a card costing up to $2 more, putting it on top of your deck. (The choices must be different.)
by Saucery. Source thread:
The Intrigue fan card contest. The only change I made was raising the cost from $6 to $7 because it still seemed quite strong at $6.
Bargain by Asper ($6 event, unmodded) Source thread:
Asper's Cards.
(I don't mind having a fan card and an official event of the same name.)
Bastion by Cookielord ($6, unmodded so I won't list it again here) Source thread:
Roots and Renewal. (Cookielord removed it from his OP, but it's still easy to find in Fragasnap's post at the top of the 2nd page of the thread.)
Canines
Cost $6 - Action - Attack
+$1.
Each other player with 4 or more cards in hand discards a treasure or victory card. If any victory cards were discarded, take 3 coin tokens. Otherwise take 2 coin tokens.
by K9forlife (my friend who isn't on this forum)
original thread.
Cloister by General Ramos ($6, unmodded) Source thread:
Holy Order.
Barracks/Conscripts by LastFootnote ($5, unmodded)
Source thread:
Enterprise. Listed as Bladesmith and Armament in his thread since he changed them (very slightly) since the versions I use.
Convocation by LastFootnote ($5, unmodded) Source thread:
Enterprise as "Conclave".
I changed it back to its old name after Nocturne came out with an official Conclave.
Frontier by Fragasnap ($5) I like to add the following when I use it: "When this pile is empty, add 6 copies of another kingdom card costing less than this to the supply in place of Frontier." (It doesn't count as an empty supply pile until the additional kingdom card pile is also empty.) Source thread:
Greed.
Historian
Cost $5 - Action
Draw up to 4 cards in hand. Trash up to two cards from your hand. Draw up to 6 cards in hand.
(modded. original by Fragasnap.) I had the original version on this list at one time, then decided I didn't like it as much. Now I'm adding this modified version which strengthens the trashing aspect of the card. Source thread:
Greed.
Indulgence
Cost: $5 - Treasure
Worth $2. +1 Buy.
When you play this, the player to your left chooses a card in the Supply costing between $3 and $6. When you buy a copy of that card this turn, +2VP.
(unmodded) by Sir Peebles, was the winner of
the Prosperity contest.
Majordomo
cost $5 - Action
+1 Action. Discard a card. If it is a
pure Victory card: +2 Cards, Treasure card: +$3, Action card: +3 cards.
(modded) original by Robz888. Source thread:
The Intrigue fan card contest.
Mediator by Cookielord ($5, unmodded) Source thread:
Cookielord's other cards.
Necromancer
Cost $5. Action
Gain an action or treasure card from the trash. If it isn't a Necromancer, play it. | Setup: Put the Zombie cards in the trash.
Zombie
Cost $4*. Action - Attack
+1 Action. +$1.
Each other player reveals the top 2 cards of his deck, trashes one costing from $3 to $6, and discards the rest. If any cards costing more then $4 are trashed, trash this.
(This is not in the supply.)
by Asper. I modded Zombie, but not Necromancer. Source thread:
Asper's Cards.
Sentinel
Cost $5. Action
+2 Cards.
Put up to 2 cards from your hand on top of your deck. Look at the top 2 cards of your deck. Trash any number of them and put the rest back in any order.
(by Cookielord, unmodded) Source thread:
Cookielord's other cards.
I'm considering removing this from my fan card rotation because of its similarity to Sentry, but at the moment, I still think there's room for both of them.
Solicitor
Cost $5 - Action - Attack
Draw up to 6 cards in hand. Take 1VP from the Solicitor pile. If you do, each other player gains a copper.
-
Setup: Put 10 VP tokens on the Solicitor pile.
(I have this recorded as being by Asper, but I can't find it anywhere in
his thread. Am I mistaken or did he just remove it from the thread?)
Taskmaster
Cost $5 - Action
Choose and turn sideways one unturned card on the Taskmaster mat. This is that card until it leaves play. Whenever there are 4 or more sideways cards on the mat, return them all to normal position.
-
Setup: Put the randomizers for 5 cards each costing up to $4 on the Taskmaster mat face-up.
by <unknown> (modded. original cost $4.) from
the Guilds contest.
Troglodyte Caves
$5 - Action
+1 Card, +1 Action.
Discard any number of cards. +1 Card per card discarded.
-
When you gain this, you may choose a card you have in play costing less than this. Gain a copy of it or trash it.
by ChocophileBenj (modded: I tweaked the reaction). Source thread:
The Hinterlands fan card contest.
Vendor by LastFootnote ($5, unmodded) Source thread:
Enterprise.
Archer
$4 cost - Action
+1 Buy. +$1.
You may discard a card. If you do, +2 Cards.
by Graystripe77 (slightly modded). (I renamed it "Lumberjack" for my printing of it.) I can't find the original thread.
Here's his more recent thread, but IIRC, the modification I use was suggested by someone else in the original thread and isn't in his newer thread. I'm not judging his more recent version here because I've had this card for awhile and this is the version I've been playing with and I like it.
Arsonist
cost $4 - Action - Attack
Trash a card from your hand. If it is an
Action card, each other player gains a Ruins; Treasure card, gain a Spoils from the Spoils pile; Victory card, each other player gains a Curse.
by GwinnR (slightly modded: my only changes were making it cost $4 instead of $5 and renaming it. Originally it was "Incendiarist"). Source thread:
The Dark Ages fan card contest.
Barge
cost $4 - Action - Duration
Now and at the start of your next turn: draw until you have 6 cards in hand.
-
While this is in play, when you gain a card, you may trash a card from your hand.
by NoMoreFun (my only mod was removing the +1 buy, but NoMoreFun also changed his card since this version so it's different in his thread.) (
source thread here). For my use, I've renamed it "Chaplain" since Menagerie.
Dignitary
cost $4 - Action - Reaction
+2 Cards, +$2.
Put two cards from your hand back on your deck.
-
When another player plays an attack, you may discard this to trash a card from your hand, then draw 2 cards.
by LastFootnote. Source thread:
Enterprise.
Diviner
cost $4 - Action
+2 cards, +1 buy.
When you buy a card, for each Diviner you have in play, you may look at the top 2 cards of your deck, discard any number, and put the rest back in any order.
by jamespotter. from
the Hinterlands contest.
Garrison
$4 cost - Action
+3 Cards.
Each player (including you) with 5 or more cards in hand puts a card from their hand anywhere in their deck.
by Drab Emordnilap/NoMoreFun. (modded: only changes were lowering the cost from $5 and making the attack "5 or more cards in hand" instead of 4) This modded version is a cross between Drab Emordnilap's Garrison and NoMoreFun's Rear Admiral (which are already similar to each other).
Labyrinth by General Ramos ($4. only mod was to remove the "that is not a Labyrinth" clause.) Source thread:
Holy Order.
(Renamed to "Hedge Maze" because of the Landmark in Empires)
Manor
Cost $4 - Action
+1 Card, +2 Actions. You may gain an Estate into your hand.
-
While this is in play, Estates are Action/Victory cards with the following play effect: choose either +1 Card or +1 Buy.
By Cookielord. (I won't bother linking because he has since removed it from his thread.)
Orphanage
Cost $4 - Action
+2 Actions. If this is the first action card you play this turn, +1 Card and +1 VP.
-
When you gain this, gain a Silver onto your deck.
(by Cookielord I didn't change it except to make it a split pile, but apparently Cookielord did change it since this version because the version in his thread is different) Source thread:
Roots and Renewal.
I decided that this would be ideal as the top half of a split pile, so here's the bottom card I made for it:
Young Hero
+2 Cards, +1 Buy.
You may trash a card from your hand.
-
When you gain this, gain a Gold onto your deck.
The name comes from the orphan-to-hero trope very common in middle grade and young adult fantasy stories (which is the kind of thing I like to read).
Pasture
cost $4 - Victory Reaction
Worth 2 VP.
-
When another player gains a Victory card, you may reveal and discard this along with any number of cards from your hand. If you do, +2 Cards per Pasture and +1 Card per other card discarded.
by HeavyD (I had changed it to cost $5 for a awhile, but then changed it back.) Source thread:
The Hinterlands fan card contest.
Secret Chamber
Types: Action
Cost: $4
+3 Cards. Discard 2 cards.
-
When you gain this, exile a card from your hand.
(was "Sanctuary" but I changed the name since Menagerie*) by Titandrake. Originally, it was "+2 Cards. Discard 2", but that seemed very weak. My only other mod was using the Exile mat, but the original on-gain effect was essentially the same. Source thread:
The Hinterlands fan card contest. (I figure it's safe to use the name of a removed card because we know there won't be any new cards with that name...)
Shire by Cookielord ($4, unmodded except for adding "non-victory" to my version) Source thread:
Roots and Renewal.
Soldier Village
Cost $4 - Action
+2 actions.
Reveal the top 2 cards of your deck, put one of them in your hand and discard the other.
modded, by <unknown>. Source thread: unknown (and can't find it with a search). Huh. Maybe I renamed it? I totally don't remember where I got this card. I just have noted that the original was cost $5 and looked at 3 cards.
Stockpile by LastFootnote ($4, unmodded) Source thread:
Enterprise. (I renamed it to "Ivory Trade" since Menagerie. Actually, I let my dad choose our new name for it.)
Suburb by Cookielord ($4, unmodded) Source thread:
Cookielord's other cards.
Synod by General Ramos ($4, unmodded) Source thread:
Holy Order.
Terrace by LastFootnote ($4, unmodded) Source thread:
Enterprise.
Cobblestone Road
$3 cost - Action
+2 actions
Do this any number of times: Look at the top card of your deck, and you may pay an Action to put that card into your hand.
by Liopoil. (All I did was give it a name -after a similar card of mine which didn't work out - originally it was just 'Unnamed #2'.)
Source thread here.Deposit
Types: Action
Cost: $3
+1 Buy.
Choose one: Put any number of treasure cards from your hand onto your Deposit mat, or play a card from your Deposit mat twice.
by Cookielord. (unmodded) Source thread:
Roots & Renewal -at least it
was in that expansion, but now Cookielord has an almost completely different card with the same name.
Guard Patrol
Cost $3 - Action - Reaction
Discard any number of cards. Draw until you have 5 cards in hand.
-
When you discard a card from your hand other than during a Clean-up phase, you may reveal this from your hand. If you do, either trash that card, or put it on top of your deck.
by Watno (My only mod is changing the name when the 2nd editions came out because it was originally "Patrol".) Source thread:
The Dark Ages fan card contest.
Shoveler
Cost $3 - Action
Reveal cards from your deck until you reveal 3 cards that cost $3 or less. Discard the other cards, then choose one: Put them in your hand; or Trash one and discard the others.
EDIT: by ben_king (original name was "Hoarder"). Source thread:

Cost $3 - Action
+2 Actions, +2 Cards.
Put a card from your hand on top of your deck. Put a card from your hand on the bottom of your deck.
by NoMoreFun (unmodded) Source thread: I don't remember and can't find it with a search. (But I learned that there's a lot of other fan made cards with the same name. I did find this card in Theta's collection of fan cards by the name "Sea Shanty".)
Tiller
$3 cost - Action
+1 Action.
Look at the top two cards of your deck. You may pay a coin token. If you do, put both cards into your hand. Otherwise you may put one of them into your hand, and discard the rest. If you didn't put either card into your hand, gain a coin token.
Modded with a
suggestion I made in the contest thread. by <unknown> (because the card designers of the guilds contest were never revealed). Source thread:
The Guilds fan card contest.
Auction by LastFootnote ($2, unmodded)
Source thread:
Enterprise.
Excavation
$2 cost - Action - Preserve
+1 Action. If the ruins pile is empty: +$1. Otherwise: +$2. Gain a Ruins, putting it into your hand. You may play an Action card from your hand costing up to $3.
Renamed and slightly modded (I added the nerf for when the ruins pile runs out), by jamespotter, was "Garderobe". Source thread:
The Dark Ages fan card contest.
Jubilee by LastFootnote ($2, unmodded) Source thread:

http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=9231.0---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following are cards I still think are good, but I have removed them from my fan card rotation since adding them to this list:
Almoner
$5 cost - Action
Discard any number of cards. Draw until you have 7 cards in hard. Each other player may gain a copper, putting it into their hand.
by LastFootnote (unmodded). Source thread:
Enterprise Good card, but I removed it because it's very similar to Scholar.
Voyage
Types: Action Duration
Cost: $5
Reveal deck cards until you reveal 3 actions or treasures costing at least $2 and discard the rest. You may put one of those cards in your hand; put the others on top of your deck. At the start of your next turn, +2 Cards.
by markusin (modded). Source thread:
The Seaside fan card contest.
Removed because Archive from Empires is simpler, stronger, and does a very similar thing.
Poet
Cost $4 - Action
+1 Action. +1 VP.
-
When you discard this from play, if you gained a Victory card this turn, you may put this on top of your deck.
(by Market squire) At one time, I liked this enough to have it on this list, but then I changed my mind about it.
<There was a fan card called "Traveller's Village" here, but it was essentially the same as Mountain Village in Nocturne which came out some years after it was a fan card.>
Floodgate by LastFootnote ($3, unmodded) Source thread:
Enterprise.
Removed because there's a very similar fan card that I like better. I'll add the other one to this list once I've tested it more.
There have been many other cards I've playtested only once or twice and I intend to playtest many more.
EDIT: See
this post for mock-ups of the cards here that have mock-ups.
