Storyteller...?

What even is this card?

1. Bank?
2. With Quarry, you can play Storyteller, then Quarry, then gain an Adventurer with your Workshop, right?
3. Relic still attacks, right?
4. Crown? Like, what?
5. Can you still Counterfeit another Treasure? If so, does the Counterfeited treasure draw you cards or give you moola?
6. If you play Royal Seal with Storyteller, Can you topdeck cards from your Workshop?How about cards you buy?
7. Does Loan do the Loan thing?
8. Rocks?
9. Does Hoard do the fun Hoard Gold gain?

1. It counts all the treasures, since they're in play.
2. Correct.
3. Yes.
4. It plays an Action card twice, since it's your Action phase.  Afterwards, you go back to resolving Storyteller.
5. Yes, you can, and it gives you money, but then Storyteller pays all your money and draws cards.
6. I'm not sure what you mean here, since Workshop doesn't topdeck cards and you don't normally play Workshop with Storyteller (edge case: Crown)
7. Yes, it does.
8. Rocks doesn't have any weird rules when you play it; it just gives you $1, which Storyteller turns into +1 Card.
9. Yes, it does, since it's still in play.

Thanks math!

I fixed question six, but I think I know the answer at this point.

Yes, Royal Seal still works as normal, and it works on cards you gain in your action phase.

You only pay the money. You follow all of the effects on the Treasure card as you play them. If you played some Treasure that made you gain an Estate every time you played it, guess what, you gain an Estate when you play the Treasure with Storyteller. It's the same deal with Black Market, only difference is Storyteller "steals" the money used with it's playing treasures effect for draw.

The only weird niggle is that playing Counterfeit lets you play more than Storyteller's limit of three Treasures.

Also, for extra inception, play Storyteller, Crown, Storyteller.  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Venture, too! Man, if you really wanted crazy draw, play Royal Seal first, then a Venture, revealing a Tunnel, gaining a Gold, putting in on top of your deck, then play a third Venture to play the Gold. (the second Venture has to play something too of course).

Or three ventures, revealing even more ventures, and finally a Bank. Man, Prosperity is crazy.

The only weird niggle is that playing Counterfeit lets you play more than Storyteller's limit of three Treasures.

Kind of like when you Throne Room a Throne Room, you play more than a Throne Room's limit of one other Action card.

I love how all of math's answers are pretty much, "yes, really." A lot of the confusion/questions around Crown (and Storyteller here) lately reminded me of things like Throne Room/Feast and Ironworks/Great Hall; yes you really do get to gain 2 cards, just follow the words; yes you really do get +1 Card and +1 Action.

4. It plays an Action card twice, since it's your Action phase.  Afterwards, you go back to resolving Storyteller.

Roadrunner, I'm sure you'll be pleased to note that this means you can play a Storyteller, use it to play Crown, use the Crown to play Scout twice which nets you +2 Actions and maybe you draw some Harems that you can also play with Storyteller... :P

The thing that is actually confusing is BM + Crown + BM. Which cards do you get to look at...?

- play Black Market1
-- reveal 3 cards from the BM deck
-- play Crown
-- -- play Black Market2
-- -- -- reveal the next 3 cards from the BM deck, may play Treasures and buy one of those 3
-- -- play Black Market2 a second time
-- -- -- reveal the next 3 cards from the BM deck, may play Treasures and buy one of those 3
-- play any other Treasures you want, may buy one of the originally revealed 3

Once the cards are revealed from the deck, they're not on the deck any more, so subsequent plays of Black Market just look at the deck and know nothing about the cards currently revealed.

It reminds me a little of Lookout+Cultist; you look at 3 cards from your deck with Lookout, if you trash a Cultist, you draw the next 3 cards of your deck, while the other 2 cards you're currently looking at are not part of your deck.

Also Black Market.

And Envoy. But yeah, even with all that said, the answer to almost every rules question in Dominion is "do what the card says to do." Except for Crown, playing a treasure in the action phase is no different than playing it in the buy phase.

What's different about Nomad Camp and Pirate Ship? Pirate ship prolly should say something like pirate token or whatever, but I can't figur out what's wrong with what it should say on nomad camp?

And posession: because the tokens now go to you (playing as him) and no longer him?

What's different with how envoy is worded than to what it does?

"

    Envoy is misworded: it should say "Put the rest into your hand" rather than "Draw the rest", and should be treated as such. This is relevant for when the -1 Card token is on your deck; in this case, you still reveal 5 cards, put 4 into your hand (discarding 1), and put the token back on top of your deck. "

Ok, I got that part.

Yeah, Pirate Ship just says "take a coin token", the same way Candlestick Maker does, but Pirate Ship does not actually give you coin tokens.

Nomad Camp, the deal is, it says "when you gain this" you put it on your deck, but in Dominion "when you gain this" usually means right after you gain something. And with Nomad Camp you put it on your deck as you gain it, not right after.
