Okay. In French, we say "Dans la V.O." to mean "in the original version (not translated, or the first one) of a game/movie/..." and it was supposed to be an anagram by putting off the O and the V of "province" to make "prince".
L'anglais est une langue trop subtile pour ceux qui ne l'ont pas comme langue maternelle, et pourtant tellement plus simple par de nombreux aspects (no, I'm not gonna translate this !)

Hamlet, Market Square, Sage, Warehouse, Fortress, Procession, Haggler, Harvest, Highway, Horn of PlentyNo Shelters or Colonies.This effectively gives you $1 twice and attacks your opponents with something akin to a cutpurse. That looks far more like a $4 card that a $5 one.i noticed; so it hurts all players equally. that's still a merchant ship for 4$. a 5$ card for 4$ usually isn't a good idea. and i'm pretty sure giving +2$ twice wasn't the intention.This isn't the out of context thread. Note that the card is in play during your own turns as well.QuoteNow and at the start of your next turn +$2
A couple of hints for the ones still untouched.It's peddler, like is in cost, doing is actions I feel dumb that I didn't see this before the clues.And one more, for good measure:What, in most games, is the greatest expanse of land?
Do nothing, I am like a great expanse of land.
Do something, I am like a glistening coin.
Do everything, I am like the foulest of words.
What, in most games, is the most valuable of coin?
What might the foulest of words be? It's not Scout.
Why might a card care that you've done nothing, something, or everything?
Here's the awkward part where I'm happy to have discussion but disagree with virtually everything that's been said.
On potions cost cards: I really didn't want to have just one or two potion cost cards floating around.
On alt vp: I agree that gardens is a bit awkward but I felt like it was the best option available. I wanted an alt-vp that actually changed the way you built your deck (as opposed to fairgrounds which I feel takes little effort to be a six cost province), I've never found duke interesting, I'm pretty sure feodum is terrible much too often and to be honest I don't really get silk road (shameful admission). That leaves gardens. I tried to fit in as many tier 2 enablers as I could reasonably manage (because most of the best gardens enablers aren't good for much other than enabling gardens).
Having a better non-terminal handsize increaser might be worthwhile though...
I find it pretty rare to get to Province level with Fairgrounds unless I'm actually aiming for it. Without help, it's usually just 4VP. You need 15 different cards to get to Province level, which is actually quite a lot.
10 of us, but only one of me.Starting cards
Just buy 1 card, and you can Upgrade me!Trashed when you buy a victory card (so it's an upgrade)
I scoff at diplomats and laugh at the ruler of Estate.Diplomat=ambassador, the ruler of estate is Baron, this interacts poorly with both.
In Victory, I am a Prize,It technically costs 0 so can be swindled into ruins or curses, it isn't an action, ruin, curse, victory or prize, but can be thought of as a prize in being a reward.
As an Action, I am sometimes a Ruin, and sometimes a Curse in disguise,
And yet I am none of these.
Try to fake me, you cannot break me,Doesn't get trashed by counterfeit, can't be gained by normal means and is limited it the number of times you can use it
Try to make me, you cannot take me,
But dig deep, and I will give you less than what I am.
Making Fun are promoting some of their existing games with some advertising on Goko. Nothing to be surprised about really.
Maybe not something to be surprised about, but damned certain something to be up in arms about. I didn't spend $40 to see ads for other products.
On Committee: Based on treasure map I'm pretty sure that, as this is worded, you don't actually need to hit two differently named cards for the effect to trigger. Is this acceptable here?
It's not ideal. Could you elaborate? I read it differently.
