Rotating the Castles sounds like fun. And I can imagine someone rotating the Ruins, searching desperately for a +Buy.

Is Clash now the first card type that nothing actually refers to or depends on?

Possibly Curse? When things refer to Curses is it clear whether they are referring to the card name or the card type?

First I thought it would be hard to rotate the Ruins since the cards are secret. But of course, you put one card at a time on the bottom when rotating, as long as they are the same. More use of remembering the order afterwards!

That way you might end up trying to rotate a pile where all the remaining cards are the same, even though you didn't know. At least you get to know that all of the remaning Ruins were Ruined Village then!

Yes, if you count setup rules for cards like Looters, Dooms and Fates, but don't count setup rules for how to organize split piles.

I wouldn't have thought that Ruins or Knights were included.
It's a bit weird that you can rotate Ruins. The rule for shuffled piles is that you can only ever gain, buy or choose the top card. So then either "rotate" comes with a special rule for shuffled piles, or it means: "put the top card of the pile at the bottom. If the new top card is identical, put it at the bottom too, etc."

That makes sense. Nothing in the definition of "rotate" restricts it to the Allies rotating piles

And it is a bit odd that "Clash" is a type here, given that nothing actually refers to it. But I guess it's for the sake of consistency, since the other rotating piles have a specific type

I love that Emissary just stops the "can you shuffle one card" argument in its tracks.

I saw that! I assume Donald put it in because of the discussion. Of course, the clause is needed because the answer isn't clear.

Barbarian
$5; Action-Attack
+$2
Each other player trashes the top card of their deck. If it costs $3 or more they gain a cheaper card sharing a type with it; otherwise they gain a Curse.

Question: Suppose Barbarian hits, say, a Village, but there are no Action cards costing less than $3. Do you get a Curse? I think no, because the "otherwise" would refer back to the "if it costs $3 or more". But it could also mean "if you did not gain a cheaper card"

The rotating split piles online (and I assume, in the rules) let you see exactly how many of each card there is in the pile. Now, that has never been the case (by design!) with something like Ruins. But now you can rotate ruins? Someone make this make sense.

i also think "no", you just do as much as you can so the gaining fails

All new cards added to auto-link. For Chrome you'll need to clear your local cache to see it. And the Wiki pages/images aren't there yet so it just links to nothing, but I'm sure someone will have them added pretty quickly.

I'm sure there's a setup rule referring to it, as I was saying above.

pretty sure i can guess the answer to this, but the Pay keyword on Capital City: You have to have the coin to use it? It's not like the '–$1 for each treasure card revealed' on Poor House, where you can really embrace that $0 floor, get stuff for free?

I think the only other instance of Pay is on Storyteller, which just spends all your money regardless.

For some reason I really like the "Repeat as desired" wording on Desert Guides. Trying to imagine when else that phrase could possibly be used.

It is. I played it (to see if I could rotate the Castles pile) and won despite my opponent getting all 8 Provinces (with the Duchy from Sprawling they were worth 11 VP each)

why wasn't Research worded like Garrison? like i feel like half the problem with it is it ties up your cards with being set aside.

I've been trying to play it on dominion.games and it is not allowing me to play certain matches because I don't own certain cards.  I don't have the subscription currently, but I used to be able to play new cards with people who did.  Was that changed?

The rotating split piles online (and I assume, in the rules) let you see exactly how many of each card there is in the pile. Now, that has never been the case (by design!) with something like Ruins. But now you can rotate ruins? Someone make this make sense.

For Ruins, you take the top card, and reveal the one below. If it's a different card, that means you put just the top card at the bottom, end of rotating. If it is the same card, you put it to the top card, and reveal the one below. If that is a different card, you put the 2 top cards at the bottom, end of rotating. This goes on for as long as the "just uncovered top card" is the same as the previously uncovered cards, until you finally hit a different one, or find that all of your Ruins pile was just one card.
