Happy Easter - with an Easter Kingdom

i wish everyone a Happy Easter.

As someone did a Christmas kingdom I tried to construct one for Easter.

Crossroad; Loan; Swindler; Militia; Gardens; Ill-Gotten-gains; Graverobber; Governor; Rabble; Torturer

Jesus was at the Garden when the Militia arrested him, because he was sold out by Judas, who got an ill-Gotten-Gains as Loan.
They accused him to be a Swindler and brought him to the Governor Pontius Pilate . He let the Rabble decide wheather let him go or crucify him.
Jesus went along his Crossroad to become crucified by the Torturer. But after 3 Days the Grave was Empty... was there a Graverobber?



As always dont judge me for my english but if you have corrections I gladly take them.

Anyhow happy Holidays.

Probably with few Swindlers in place of Silver, in hopes of Swindling Copper into Curse and Gardens into Militia?

I think opening double Swindler and maybe getting another later on? They could be a problem if the curses ran, though. Maybe Militia as a third terminal?

You know, I've always thought of Swindler as one of the weaker cursers (purely in terms of cursing), in part because you generally trash a Copper along with the Curse you deal out.  But that's actually a boon in a Gardens game, since it puts a Curse into your opponents' deck without increasing their deck size, and it trashes a Copper which is actually of value when you are buying mostly IGG and Gardens.

Its also weaker because theres always that chance you wont hit copper.

My Easter kingdom variation:

- Crossroads (the crucifixion)
- Sage (Jesus)
- Scheme (to take him down)
- Conspirator (those taking him down)
- Feast (last supper)
- Bureaucrat (P Pilot)
- Torturer (the crucityers)
- Ill Gotten Gains (pieces of silver)
- Catacombs (where he lay to rest)
- Graverobber (until he disappears)

I like Militia too.

Sure, but in a cursing game, you actually depend on your Coppers more for early economy, since the Curses are depressing your buy power so significantly. So I actually tend to see that as something of a benefit more often than not. Swindler's real drawback as a curser is that it can whiff entirely and hit an Estate.

Swindlers hitting IGGs isn't very nice, though.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

Incorporate Haggler and Beggar for a Monty Python twist.
