I recently played a game with Charm, City Quarter, and Royal Blacksmith, and I want to see if we interpreted the rules correctly.
The Debt rules for Empires state that "Buying a card or Event with debt in its cost gives the player that many Debt tokens." As such, I interpret that as only applying to buying, and that gaining a card with debt in the cost does not give the player any debt tokens.
For example: in my buy phase I used the second option on the Charm card: "the next time you buy a card this turn, you may also gain a differently named card with the same cost."
With my buy I bought a City Quarter, took 8 debt, and then gained a Royal Blacksmith (and took no debt).
Is that a correct interpretation?
Not sure if I am posting this in the right spot... please let me know or move it if it is not!
Thanks!
