Well one counter to the pin is the card itself......

The sad truth about 1st player advantage.

...Are you princing the fortress? That seems suboptimal (if you prince the scheme instead, then the prince of remakes gets to make you trash two cards once more before you catch it with the scheme). Actually, why are you using prince at all in a board with possession and scheme?

EDIT: basically, I would prefer the meme if you didn't draw prince in your turn, since it's not helping that much. Especially since your opponent can possession-scheme to "kill" whatever prince you make.

You trash the fortress twice and gain two $5s, then play fortress, play prince on scheme, and topdeck fortress forever, basically gaining you two $5 cards for free every turn.

Ok, that was actually smart. The problem remains though that this plan crashes and burns the moment your opponent plays another possession.

Just scheme remake and then you don't have to prince remake every turn, right? According to the rule, if you don't discard the action from play, it'll not going to be set aside anymore.

The turn you Prince your Scheme, you don't Scheme. Prince, two Schemes, Fortress would work.

You may have already mentioned this, but did you consider or test a Prince that played the card the turn it set it aside?

You're reading the card correctly.

Prince-Remake twice? No problem...

sudgy · « **Reply #3689 on:** July 04, 2014, 12:33:06 am »

More because there already have been a couple.

EDIT: Did imgur change the base image for this one?

No, and I don't think I missed any opportunities there. Even "now and" is more text than I would like to add, and the card was never trying to get stronger.
