Hello, I have an issue with an image I want to have as an expansion icon
I've tried to put it from my computer and from internet too but none of them worked; here is the link: https://imgur.com/iddoQGH
Do you have any idea about why this in't working?
maybe the image is too wide...

I'd suggest closing "season 4" first. So let Fan mechanics run 1-2 more weeks* first, then take the hiatus there.
* Seasons 1 and 2 were 10 contests each, season 3 was 12, so season 4 has so far run 8 contests. So either have 41 be the finale or do 1 more and 42 be the finale.

Action - $4
Gain a card costing up to $4. Choose one: +$1, or take the Hammer.
Hammer
Artifact
When you shuffle, first gain a card costing up to $4.
I wanted to make an Artifact that gives interesting tactical choices. If you're not about to shuffle, there's more of a risk that another player will snatch the Hammer away from you before you can use it. And getting stuck with it when all the good cheap cards are gone isn't good either. But maybe you want it at the very end to gain some Estates.
Rats isnt a trasher? Huh? Now your confusing me? When you play rats, you must trash a card from your hand. How is a card that trashes cards not a trasher?
Here in the Rules Questions subforum, we do not concern ourselves with whether the scenarios he discuss will ever actually arise!
Would bet against either card disappearing.
At what odds?
Trader is a cool card, but it is not great to introduce exchange in Hinterlands just for one card, it's not strong enough to be worth buying most of the time, Donald X. has mentioned before that he would simplify Trader if he had a time machine (which seems like a horrifyingly irresponsible use for a time machine, but I digress), and the base probability of any given card leaving is about 35% if they're randomly chosen. Plus we know we're getting a card called Guard Dog which is probably a Reaction because dogs are blue. I wouldn't say I think it's likely to get replaced, but I would give it maybe a 10-15% chance, and with the (which I think is lower but still non-zero) chance of Develop getting replaced on top of that, I might take you up on that bet depending on the odds.
Alright, so let's predict the 9 drops, from most likely to least likely. It went pretty well for Prosperity, so lemme try this again.
1. Cache: Very weak and very outdated by design. If the community really cannot live without this card, I'm pretty sure there will be an Event that says "Gain a Gold and 2 Coppers."
2. Duchess: The concept of making Duchies come with a bonus is neat and all, but I'm pretty sure there are better ways to accomplish this than with a terminal Silver whose extra effect is more beneficial to you than your opponent.
3. Noble Brigand: It is horribly weak; even worse than Navigator according to the last Qvist rankings. The fact that it only steals Gold or Silver was originally meant to ensure it's not 100% better than Thief, but nowadays makes the card just look stupid. And if this card would stay, it'd probably need errata. As the errata-free rewording it got is quite ambiguous.
4. Mandarin: This card has the most shenanigan-heavy on-gain effect ever, and is unlikely to ever be beaten in this regard. This doesn't mean much, however, as its in-game usage is almost as narrow as Counting House. Being a terminal Gold with a mostly-detrimental onplay-effect makes it look rather sucky comparing to stuff like Treasurer, and the on-gain effect is no enough to make up for that.
5. Ill-gotten gains: This is not a poorly designed card by any means, but it is still quite obvious that it's an unwanted stepchild of the designing team. You either ignore this card, or ignore the rest of the kingdom. Which is undesired, even when it is usually not overly obvious which strategy is the best choice. (It is also considered to be too complicated, to which I disagree)
6. Margrave: This card pretty obnoxious, and is kinda in the same boat as the outtake-Attacks from Seaside and Prosperity. It is pretty annoying when your opponent has a 5/2 opening and is continuously able to attack you (thanks to the fast cycling this card provides). It also undeservingly gives +Buy, and Seaside 2E kinda prove that this is not the stuff that is going to be errata'd out.
7. Trader: Probably a textbook case of cool on paper but poor in practice. It is almost always outclassed as a trasher and against junking Attacks, hand-reactions aren't so great in general. In the end, it exclusively stands out as a Silver gainer, to which it compares pretty unfavorably to Groom.
8. Oracle: This card is underpowered and brings very little to the table that other sources of draw don't. The attacking part makes it slow to resolve, too. Didn't Donald X say that he hates this card?
9. Haggler: The development team has assigned themselves the mission to phase out the use of "while in play" and "when you buy". Among the cards that still exist, Haggler is the biggest roadblock by far - its effect shouldn't be Throneable and it obviously must be restricted to buying. My hypothesis is that this will be replaced by a variant that is restricted to a singular gain per play.
My predictions on the errata are:
Highway: Cost reduction is part of the on-play effect of the card.
Farmlands: Only the first Farmland you gain in a turn gets the Remodel effect.
Fool's Gold: Looses the Reaction part.
If you want to win at a competitive game youll buy goons, not lookout.
Well, it is similar in power level to Caravan Guard. Caravan Guard is better as you draw now, Supplies is better as it is no Duration. Unless there are interactions like Mastermind, such delayed Peddlers are not powerhouses though.
Lighthouse is also often enough superior to Silver yet totally fine at $2. Lots of $5 Actions are situationally superior to Gold yet totally fine at $5.
Nothing is stopping you from using those cards in your own games, whether that's paper/irl, the TGG client, or the ShuffleIT client.
Coppersmith is on ShuffleIT?
