Supplies is most comparable to lighthouse, another one of the better $2 cost cards:

Lighthouse: Action, duration, this turn copper, next turn +$1 and prevent attacks
Supplies: Treasure, this turn copper, next turn +1 card (or save the horse for later)

Since +1 card is obviously better than +$1, and non-duration meaning you can play supplies next turn potentially, unless there are very strong junking attack cards, I would definitely take supplies over lighthouse.

Welcome to the forum!

Supplies - A $2-cost Peddler, this is so straightforwardly good, it hurts me.  I've always argued that the disadvantage of duration draw is that the card stays out and skips shuffles more often.  Well Supplies doesn't even have that problem.  I don't like it.

Scrap - It seems decent at trashing estates.  +$ and +draw puts it between Masquerade and Priest, and the silver/horse options mean you can defer the bonus to later instead of now.  Otherwise, it doesn't seem like there are very many things you're happy to trash.  For example, trashing a silver and gaining a silver is like spending two cards to play a Pawn.  I think after estates, its main strength is flexibility.

Livery - Seems like a power card--decent if you get even just one horse, and potentially amazing if you get more.  And imagine relying on only this for draw, it's so awkward and limited.  I love cards like this.

Based on the 2 games I've played with it, Livery is disgusting (in a good way).

A peddler with a one-turn delay on the +card. Which isn't awful, but I'm not expecting it to be among the strongest 2$'s.

Caravan guard is a peddler with a 1 turn delay on the +$. With the additional disadvantage of staying outside, as you say. Still, it's remarkably meh.

I made that same comparison earlier; but I do think the disadvantage of staying outside is pretty big. If you are drawing your deck every turn, then Supplies actually is a Peddler every turn except for the first time you play it. While you would need 2 Caravan Guards to make a single Peddler.

Indeed if you aren't drawing your deck, and Caravan Guard doesn't miss the shuffle; then Supplies is certainly weaker.

Nooooo...
If Horses were Villager/Coffers style, this card would have worked.


Farrier 6$ Action
+3 Horses

Oooh, Good idea!

Just realised that you can Remodel a Horse into a Lab.

Ooh, and if you Apprentice a Horse, it's basically the same as just playing a Horse (both leave you with the same net actions and +1 card).

How many different pieces of artwork are there for Horse?

What do you mean? Do all Horse cards not show the same art?

I'm not sure. I was playing the online implementation today (Menagerie is the free expansion of the day), and in one game, I'm almost positive that I sometimes saw a different artwork for my Horses. I feel like it showed a Horse rearing up instead of the "normal" grazing art.

EDIT: I may have been seeing the artwork for a Way.

I have seen at least this version of the Horse art:
