Heron's Puzzles: 1
« on: June 09, 2012, 07:33:35 pm »

Alright, I realize that this isn't the first puzzle I've posted here. But this is the first one with a number attached.

Anyway, I'm planning to post a series of progressively more difficult puzzles across similar themes, about one per week.
Because the puzzles will get rather difficult eventually, I will post one hint per day.

I'm going to start off with a simple what's missing:

Contraband
Workshop
Mountebank
Festival
Tournament
Gold
King's Court
Swindler
Embargo
Saboteur
Lookout
Torturer
Caravan
Trade Route
Outpost

Hint 1: Honorable mention goes to Envoy, Stash, and Province
Hint 2: This is based on card text, not mechanics.
Hint 3: It might be a good idea to look at all of the cards from, say, Prosperity, by themselves.

Does it have to do with the text, or the role the card plays?

Nobody has any ideas?
Today's hint: It might be a good idea to look at all of the cards from, say, Prosperity, by themselves.

Well, you have the right idea, but, well, I'd just like to point out a few cards on this list, maybe it's my mistake:
Workshop
Festival
...
Gold

Young Witch? It would be rather appropriate. :P

Dsell has the intended solution.

I assume base has been used for the recently released base-card set and Dominion has been used for what we all know as the base set.
