Partway down there's an image which appears to show what you could imagine is a split pile reaction promo? 



Though...surely "Knight" and "Princess"....are...

[J Reggie]

This "princess" looks improbable from what I can read of it. I mean it's pretty blurry but it's saying you block the attack and it's as if the attack was played by you?

Also, it's a pure reaction and so useless in games without an attack, unless the card under it is an attack. But they both cost $3. What...

[werothegreat]

We also already have Knight and Princess cards...

[LaLight]

The only explanation is that this is not Dominion somehow...

[LaLight]

Or fun cards.

[werothegreat]

Also, the 7Wonders Wonder mat looks spectaularly shitty.

[Mr Anderson]

This does not look legit at all. The art on "Princess" and "Knight" is taken from the original German Base/Intrigue box art.

[trivialknot]

Blowing up the text big, it seems to say:

Princess, $3 Reaction
When another player plays an Attack card, the Princess can be discarded to seduce the attacker.  You are unaffected by that Attack card, and the whole attack is treated as if the attack card was played by you.

Knight also costs 3.  The text is covered up, but it appears to be an action/reaction, although there is no dividing line?  I don't think these are real cards.

[eHalcyon]

The two 7 Wonders leader cards look like leader effects that already exist too.

[LostPhoenix]

The Atlantis wonder doesn't make sense to me. Why does it have three 1vp symbols instead of one 3vp symbol?
Did another expansion come out and this matters somehow?

These are fan cards or fake. I can confirm they're not official cards in any fashion.

Yeah, these are completely fake.

[Awaclus]

Yeah, no way these are real!

[Donald X.]

Those are of course just someone's homemade cards, either made before Cornucopia or by someone who wasn't much of a fan ;_; There is nothing new at Spiel but Sauna / Avanto; I didn't approve any Knight / Princess and of course wouldn't, etc.

The Gamebox article links to a list of promos and that list correctly has Sauna / Avanto and nothing else for Dominion.

That would've been interesting, as the Princess then redirects that attack back at the attacker (while still hitting everyone else).  However, they (Knight too) need new names.  I agree with not having any of this "Thief 1.0" vs. "Thief 2.0" that someone proposed when the 2nd editions of Dom. and Intrigue came out.  It's just confusing.

Check the secret histories, there is an article by Donald about why reflecting the attack does not work.

Which one?  There's one for each set.

He meant, the Bible subforum, which has the secret histories and then other stuff.
