This is the first half of cards in my expansion. All have been tested a bit, and they seem to work so far.
Facade: $1
Action
+1 Card
+1 Action
Place this on top of any supply pile.
----
When you buy this, +1 Buy
-A combination of my previous card, and the idea of making cards cost $1 more. It works really well.
Smuggled Goods: $4
Treasure
$1
+1 Buy
Play a treasure from the trash or supply other than Smuggled Goods. Trash it or return it to the supply. Trash this.
-A one-shot better-than-Gold-or-Platinum. So far, seems appropriately costed.
Treaty: $3
Action/Duration
+2 Actions
+1 Buy
At the start of your next turn, +1 Action, +1 Buy. While this is in play, when another player plays an attack card, it doesn't affect you.
-A villagey Lighthouse. Works pretty well.
Tailor: $2
Action
+2 Cards
When you gain or play this, shuffle a card from your discard pile into your deck.
-Weak, but not all $2's are strong. (See Moat)
Panacea: $3p
Action
+1 Card
+1 Action
Choose one: +1 Card, OR +1 Buy, +$1, OR trash a card from your hand.

Merchant Banker: $4

When you would gain a card, you may discard this from your hand. If you do, gain a card costing $1 more instead.

-The fact that this card reshuffles your deck after each turn it's played makes it easier to play more often.
Archer: $4

-The vanilla card. This one is powerful, but not strong enough for $5
Bath House: $4
