Makes good use of the new Guilds/Cornucopia sets, with Seaside paired with Cornucopia twice and Alchemy paired with Guilds twice. "Only" 10 single set kingdoms.
[edit]
Down to 9 single set kingdoms:

This also has an extra pair of card-shaped things, and is the only solution with 12, so far. Other solutions have an extra kingdom card, though (using Wine & Dine, which has a Herbalist bane).
Interestingly, all of the solutions so far include a pair of the new Guilds/Cornucopia + Alchemy sets; 6 of the 9 use the Guilds ones, while the other 3 use the Cornucopia ones. The Cornucopia pair includes every Alchemy card except for Possession.
Script is nowhere near done; I have the kingdoms ordered by a least-overlap metric, and the first thread is still checking combinations with kingdoms 1, 2, 7, 8 (Dark Ages, Nocturne, Nocturne, and Dark Ages single set kingdoms); 3-6 are all Nocturne kingdoms which overlap with 2. The second thread skipped set 1, and is still also on 2, 7, 8, though it is now on its second fourth set (20 - Big Actions - and now 23). The third thread started with 3, 4, and hasn't found a 20-kingdom solution yet.; at the rate it is going, it may finish checking the rest of the combinations before the first thread exhausts set 1; starting with two multi-set kingdoms seems to be messier in terms of eliminating other kingdoms more quickly, so fewer combinations to check.
