Trappist • $3 • Action - Reserve
If you don't have a token on your Trappist Mat, place one on the "Trash a card from your hand" spot.
Put this on your Tavern Mat

At the start of your turn, you may call this to take your bonus from the Trappist Mat. If you don't, choose one: advance your Trappist tokens; or add a Trappist token.
Trappist Mat
Per token you have here:
Trash a card from your hand | +1 Buy | +1 Action | +$1 | +1 Card
Rulebook/off-card rules:
• Trappist tokens are coin tokens on the Trappist mat.
• 'Advancing' means your Trappist tokens - all of them - move one space to the right (so +1 Buy, +1 Action, +$1, and last, +1 Card). Tokens cannot be advanced beyond +1 Card.
•
Trappist tokens are added where your existing Trappist tokens are. If you do not have any existing Trappist tokens, they're added at 'Trash a card from your hand.'
• Taking the bonus removes your tokens from the Trappist Mat after you receive the bonus.
• Advancing can happen multiple times, for multiple Trappists on your tavern mat. Likewise adding tokens. That below the line part is per-card.
Design notes:
• Theme inspirations: aging beer, trappist monks, live yeast beers.
• Create a choice between getting a better bonus and increasing the yield of the bonus
• Single-mat card; this could've been done with individual mats for each player but I like the idea of putting the color coding right on there. Sorry Blue (bottom) + White (top), you're going to have your coins interfere with the text of the mat.
• Terminal, but there wasn't a lot of room for +Actions. c'est la vie v0v.
• Starts with trashing because that's what religious themed cards do in dominion
• Sorry I did a rush job on the photoshop, i used
jerry's java image editor because I couldn't be bothered to wait for Actual Photoshop to load
• Probably pretty frustrating to actually play. Might not be my final submission, as a result.
• did you know the middle brown-gold on the big mats is pretty darn close to the color of Reserve cards? I didn't.
• sort of an attempt to balance "what if broker was a reserve card?"
