Unlimited action

Assume a card that says something like:

+ Unlimited Actions

What would such a card cost?  It is seldom you need so many actions and with nothing else on offer perhaps it should cost 3?  Maybe this has been asked before, but I did not find it.

I think it should cost $6* but maybe have a bunch of cards you have to go through before you get to it or something.

(Sorry, I had to do it)

Wouldn't this give you infinite $ in combination with Diadem?

True about Diadem.  Good point.  Assume the wording is different then, like

+1 Action for each Action card you play while this is in play.

or something similar.

Yeah and maybe it's bump but you can make it stay in play for the rest of the game maybe.

Nevermind, i thought on it, it's too overpowered

What is the * in $6 for?

I was surprised by $6.  I would think you still need it in your hand together with +2 or more Cards to get it going and for $6 Gold is available.  There are cards giving +3 Actions, like Crossroads, costing $2, with additional benefit.

I will consider to try it out.  I am part of a group that plays live and sometimes try out new cards.

It's reasonably balanced, but the concept isn't for everyone.

I think that 4 is the right price but I'd probably prefer Port (and Busting Village with no Settlers in my deck) over this in most Kingdoms. Even if they provide a shitload of actions you still need several of these villages, especially so as they don't draw.
In other words village density is more important than not drawing a card but providing a lot of actions. The marginal benefit of an extra action of a village beyond the second one decreases quickly.

Prince of Scenic Village is pretty good, though. But when you do, all your other scenic villages are dead cards.

Keeping Diadem in mind, I think that +5 Actions for $4 also would be enough. However I would prefer a Scout/Nobles variant:

Quote
Hanseatic City
Type: Action/Victory
Cost: $4

+4 Actions
Reveal the top card of your deck. If it is a Victory card, put it into your hand.
