work in progress. one of these is mine. as a general note, I'm looking mainly for cohesion, meaning there's a reason for each part of the card to be on the same card. a Garden with a Moat reaction attached, for instance, makes no sense because the two have no relation to each other.
Sturges
$3 - Victory-Reaction
Worth 2 VP if you have the most Copper cards in your deck compared to other players (a tie for most would qualify as well).
--
When you would gain a card, you may reveal this from your hand. If you do, instead, gain a Copper. You may discard this card to put the Copper into your hand.
so at best, the Victory part is worth the same as Tunnel, which costs the same. but it might not be, if you get into a Sturges competition with an opponent. so what's the trade off for that uncertainty? being able to flood yourself with copper? the reaction is only useful on boards with cursers and maybe ambassadors. and then, it replaces those worthless cards with something that is literally one step up from them. and, unlike Gardens and the like, this can't be your main route to victory. at best, in two-player, you can get 16 points from these. your opponent can almost completely close that gap by splitting provinces 5/3, which is likely since you've been flooding your deck with victories and coppers. if they can split it 6/2, or pick up a few duchies, they can close it completely pretty easily.

Trumbo
$3 - Victory-Reaction
Worth 1 VP plus an additional 1 VP for each Randomizer card you have.
--
Whenever a supply pile becomes empty, you may reveal this from your hand. If you do, put that pile's randomizer card on top of that pile (if that card is still outside the game).
--
(Rule clarifications: This card counts the number of Randomizer cards that you have in your deck. Randomizer cards are not normally used in play, but using this card's Reaction ability can put them in the supply. A Randomizer card in the supply can be gained or bought just like any other card in the supply.)
seems really complex. first of all, don't randomizers have different backs? so as soon as you pick one up, isn't it impossible to sufficiently randomize your deck in shuffling? on top of that, even if I'm wrong there, this is still just really weird to play. it effectively makes each pile 11 cards,
if you happen to have it in your hand when the pile empties, and then in order for it to matter you have to get to it first. this feels like it'd lead to a lot of weird game situations where you and I both have a couple of these, and I empty a pile, with one of these in my hand, but am afraid to reveal it because you'll be able to buy up the randomizer first. or times where you empty the pile with a buy left and I can't reveal it because you'll just snap it up. just feels like it's trying to be cute for cute's sake, when it could just make you get a token when you empty a pile and be worth X points per token. but then it wouldn't meet the criteria.

in general, I think the out-of-supply cards have a cost of 0, but it's not really relevant unless you have TfB guys so whatever. anyway, it's scary spam potential but the cost makes that hard to do early so it should be fine, and the lack of good draw means you probably need another piece anyway. the idea is definitely neat, although how fun it would be to play with/against is somewhat questionable.

$6 - Action-Attack-Victory
+3 Cards
Each other player discards a Victory card from their hand or reveals a hand with no Victory cards and gains an Estate and a Copper.
--
Worth 1 VP for every 2 Estates in the supply.
so the attack portion actively weakens the victory portion. the attack is generally much weaker than mountebank, since a) they're more likely to have victory points than curses early, b) they're gaining points instead of losing them, c) if they have any TfB cards they'd much rather feed them estates than curses, and d) the estate pile is smaller so that part of the attack runs out quicker. you fix this in part with a stronger vanilla benefit, but it's still bizarre that it costs more. probably because it can hypothetically be worth 4 points in a two-player game, but since it's weakening itself a lot with the attack, it'll rarely actually be worth that much. more likely 2, but if both players go for it I could see it going down to 0.

I really don't like that wording. I know that it's generally pretty clear-cut whether or not there's trashers in the game, but I don't like the idea of measuring what cards are capable of. maybe it's my M:tG background, where things can get much more ambiguous. also, remember that this can be revealed multiple times, which means I can thief your gold, make you trash it, then reveal this to empty the gold pile. it's a simple wording fix, though. I'm much more concerned about going into cards' texts and discerning what they're "meant" to do.

When this card is in play, if possible you must use all of your buys.
this has no drawback in a deck without +buy. there it's just a silvestate. I'd like it better if it cost 5 and gave you a buy. in the games where it does matter, it feels too severe. oh, because I have a council room for the cards, I need to flood myself with copper? or I can just not play this, but then it's just an estate. and don't forget that if you have a couple of cards that give +buy (say, mining village is the village variant on the board and you want an engine) you can get pretty severely screwed by this. so it's either going to be an ignorable drawback on a slightly overpowered card, or it's gonna be crippling to the point where it's almost never right to actually play it for $2.

(Rules clarification: If discarded during your Buy phase, e.g. by another copy of this card, it will be played in the next turn's Buy phase. If you don't play this card in your Buy phase, the reaction can still be used when you discard it from your hand during the Clean-Up phase.)
I know it makes it stronger but I think I'd like it better if it just returned to your hand at the start of the next turn. other than that, it's a pretty simple, neat idea. the play ability seems a little tacked on, but it enables the self-synergy so it's okay.
Puzo
$4 - Victory-Reaction
2 VP
--
When another player trashes a card, you may set this aside from your hand. If you do, he gains a Curse. At the start of your next turn, return this to your hand.
pretty irrelevant in games without trashers, but as a 2VP Victory card it might be useful in late game green wars, especially if there are alt-victories around. I almost wish it cost $3, but then it'd be too easy to spam in games with strong trashing. it's ironic that its ability is at its best with your own trashing, since you're more likely to have it in hand when they trash. anyway, I think it should just discard instead of set aside and return. the reason HT uses the set aside thing is because, as an action, you might still want to play it on your turn. this is a victory card. it's unlikely to do anything on your turn. and, if you have things like Thief, that make them trash during your turn, you can keep bringing the Puzo back every turn to curse with them, which is ugly.

so if I leave this alone, you're stuck with a silver that trashes your treasure every turn? I guess that's okay early, Loan can be helpful and all. eh, maybe it's not so bad if I leave it alone. it can always trash itself once I'm done with it. but the reaction seems dangerous, since I might reveal a copper and three actions. still, if I'm trashing my coppers, it's more likely I'll hit a good treasure (or, at worst, another one of these.) or nothing so okay. yeah, the whole thing works together, pretty well actually, but it rubs me the wrong way for reasons I can't quite identify.

on the one hand, you can compare it to duchy. it needs to be triggered twice to be better than duchy. on the other, though, realize that it turns estates
into duchies. it can also turn duchies into practically provinces. you effectively pay an extra $2 for them by holding them back, but that's still a discount on the estate-duchies and if you're stuck at $7, picking up 5 VP is a pretty good consolation. not sure it's overpowered but it'd definitely need testing.

put a card from where? I assume your hand but you need to say. anyway, if I'm reading the reaction right it is a chancellor that puts the card on top or makes it miss the shuffle. that part seems unnecessarily confusing. does this
need to also be a defense against cursers? also, this feels way too close in practice to watchtower, in terms of reactions. the top decking gets a little stronger, but the getting rid of it gets much weaker to compensate. the main side is obviously different, but I'm not really sure what's going on with it. I don't see what it has to do with the other half. I mean, if I gain a treasure with an action during my turn, I can use this to pick it up. but that's it.

this took me a second to think about when you'd want it, and then I realized it's useful with a bunch of terminals. if your terminals collide you can use this to smooth things out by making them non-terminal, effectively paying $2 for the second action, and once you're out of terminals to enable with this, it turns on into a silver. pretty neato, although I suspect it might need to cost $4.

it's a nice attempt at making "each opponent discards a good card" but how often are you really gonna play this? it costs 6, so you can't get it before the first shuffle, you're probably only going to get to play it maybe 4 times total. that means that, if they discard a good card just once this is only worth an estate. you can get some more by picking up more of these, but you need them early to work and you're buying them across from gold. how often will that be worth it?

should say "two or more" for clarification purposes. anyway, I guess there's some self-synergy, in that the actions the first ability provides lets you buy up more terminals, which helps feed the VP ability. but it's well-hidden, which means at first glance the whole thing makes no sense together. it's also just a bunch of actions for $5, which is awkward.

I mean, if it's way late in the game maybe I want to because I keep hitting these with a bunch of green cards so it's not doing anything for me, but if I'm there odds are they are too, meaning it's not likely to ever trigger unless they're playing vault or tactician. and if I do get lucky enough to make that work, why does the duchy need to mess up my next hand?

I like the idea but it seems really tedious to play. I need to know exactly how many of each treasure I have, so I know when to trash my silvers over coppers to turn on my golds, I need to accurately predict how future turns will go in order to assume how many golds (or platinums) I'll end up with, and such. I mean, always trashing the lowest-cost treasure seems like a good strategy, but there's a 2-point difference here between silvers and golds, so there's a lot of reward for pedantic card-counting, which isn't all that fun.

on the treasure side, I feel like this could be worded better. "worth $1. You may trash a card from your hand. If you don't, trash this and +$1." plays differently if you can empty your hand though, and from the reaction I suspect that may have been intentional. it can be a strong dissuasion of discard attacks, in that if you militia me early and I have this, you just gave me a free half-chapel. but it costs $4 so that should be fine, since you're giving up a lot of opportunity, including a militia of your own, to set that up.

Islands away all the victory cards you buy with it, and keeps junkers from cluttering your deck. lets you start greening earlier, since you won't get as cluttered. maybe a bit strong in draw-your-deck style decks, because they tend to get hit hard by greening and they'll always be able to find this. but should be okay.

Dark Ages gives us trash fetching, which means this suddenly does have a use of protecting things from being reclaimed, but in most games there's no need for the second ability to deal with cards at all. how often do you expect this to be played? 6 times? that means it's serving as a duchy that eats up 6 terminal actions over the course of the game. and if there's no other trashers it's going to have to be played to trash a couple times, meaning it's less.

so whenever I gain a card, this becomes a super-gold? seems pretty nuts.

so it's a witch that costs me a buy instead of an action and doesn't draw me cards. that's hypothetically okay. but it costs less too. I mean, without +buy it's really not that good, since I have to spend my whole turn's resources cursing you, but if there's a source of +buy for cheap, then whether you collide them early or not can decide the game. the +buys you can open with across from this are hamlet, woodcutter, pawn, herbalist, and trade routes, which isn't all that much, and some of them suck. but I'd open hamlet-this in a second. it's also worth noting that the nomad camp option exists, which is even more brutal. you can only do it if you get your 4-coin hand first, so even if we both have 4/3s, one of us might hit it while the other doesn't. still, you need to collide them, which makes the strength weaker, but makes the luck factor involved much higher, meaning games will be decided simply by who collided theirs turn 3. maybe that's not such a big deal, but the games where it hits it's sure gonna feel like one.

I'd make it worth 1 VP for each empty pile. then it'll always be worth 1, but sometimes it's as good as a duchy if the tools are there to three-pile. on the action side, it's a nice variant on Smithy, in that it can dig as deep to find what you need but won't give you everything there. but again it has no reason to be on the same card as the victory half.

the VP feels a little tacked on, but it's not egregious here. stuff that's worth 1 always feels a little weak because winning that split 8-0 won't help you come back from a 5-3 province split. but the card is nice, in that it helps clear out the chaff, which makes it feel like it's designed specifically to interact with silk roads decks, helping you knock off those worthless victory cards and keep your treasure flowing. but it has uses in any alt-vp deck that finds itself inundated in green. I probably wouldn't pick it up in a deck aiming for provinces, but there's plenty of things it does help with.

it seems too good but I don't think it actually is. I don't like the victory part, but it needs to be a victory for self-synergy purposes, and if it's worth even 1 all the time it's strictly better than estate, and the ability seems good at $2, so okay I'll buy it.
alright that took forever. feel free to tell me all the ways I am wrong.
