Does walled village no longer exist or something?

[Warfreak2]

Walled Village is a very odd one, it only lets you use it again if you didn't really use it the first time.

Endgame $0*
If this is in the supply,  then at the start of the game,  each player takes 99999 coin tokens.

This card may not be bought or gained.

suddenly squire is the best card in the game.

But do you really want to waste a turn buying a squire instead of a colony?

[liopoil]

yes. I open squire-colony.

[liopoil]

or sir martin, should he happen to be the top knight.

[liopoil]

If I'm first player I might consider squire-squire, if P2 buys a squire.

[StrongRhino]

No. Open Doctor/card that gives you +2 Buys, and trash your whole deck except for Doctor and +2 buys.

[dominator 123]

No that's too slow. I'll already have gotten alot of colonies when you have set up your 'engine'.

I'm not too slow-You're just too fast.

So I win.

[heron]

1. Colony; Doctor
2. Colony; Squire
3. Colony; 3x Colony
4. Colony; Colony+2x Province

Doctor-Squire crushes straight colonies.

[eHalcyon]

1. Colony; Doctor
2. Colony; Potion
3. Colony; Possession
4. Colony; Colony and I possess you, spending all your coin tokens and buying a Colony (now 4:2)

And then I just pile drive Provinces and Colonies before you can rebuild.

Wow we discovered a new counter: Possession vs coin tokens

[liopoil]

doctor doesn't work - you can only trash cards in your deck/discard, so only 5 cards.

I believe that the correct opening is Border village - nomad camp - border village - sir martin - herald putting NC-BV-Sir Martin on top of your deck.

Or maybe just BV-NC-colony-BV-squire.

well, with possession you aren't quite guarranteed to have your potion on T3. but the above isn't guarranteed either...

This should end up a bit of rock-paper-scissors.

[liopoil]

Farmland could be a good buy for tiebreaks, turning coppers into squires or estates into sir martin or nomad camp.

[liopoil]

in any case, the optimal strategy is certainly not pure colony: NC-colony-colony is strictly better. I'd be interested to actually play this game. It seems there are quite a few cards which could be useful:

farmland
colony
province
squire
doctor
herald
sir martin
potion
possession
border village
nomad camp
shelters
band of misfits (as procession or squire or ?)
king's court?
watchtower?
fortress?
storeroom?

any others?

Hm, good call on the Doc. But it should be able to trash the rest on play pretty quick.

Better than normal Urchin, in the same way Ghost ship is better than Militia, except this is a cantrip, which is amazing.

[brokoli]

And if you play another attack, you gain a Sea mercenary ?

[eHalcyon]

And if you play another attack, you gain a Sea mercenary ?

That would be a Pirate! 

Sea Urchin is generally better than Urchin, but it's not amazing. Just one card is not that great. Sometimes the attack is Bureaucrat, sometimes Cutpurse, but sometimes it helps by letting a player save something unneeded.

[hypercube]

Cathedral $5

You may play up to four cards. Trash any cards you played this way.


Mice $0

+1 Action
You may trash a card from your hand that is not a Mice
You may gain a Mice

I got it:
1. Buy Potion
2. Buy Doctor, trashing all cards in your deck but discarding the potion until it's the only card in your deck (in your deck, not your discard)
3. Buy Possession
4. As soon as you can, play it and spend all coin tokens.
