I'm back!
It's been a while since I've had progress, largely because my artist has been on hiatus.
After all that noise about changing cards, I've basically scrapped the Avatar of Greed and replaced it with:
Token - Treasure $4
+1 Card
Discard a card
$2
-
When you discard this on your turn, if it's not Clean-up, reveal it for + $1.
A little explanation:
At one point, I'd have said that Treasures that draw cards are a big no-no. For one thing, they can swing horribly (this card is worth $2. Or $7. Or maybe more.) On the other hand, they can burn Actions, which is bad.
I find that discarding a card balances the swing out a bit. Also, we live in the era of Nocturne... drawing a card might also draw you Night cards, which I think is cool. This set could use a little more Night card interaction.
The Reaction was built to have synergy with cards like Tactician. Because this is a board game piece!
Finally, the name's not final. It's a board game piece, and I've tried everything from Chessman to Draughtsman... suggest away!
I *think* it's balanced, but if you know it's not, let me know.
