This fan expansion is for my dad. Perhaps you'll enjoy it, too.
This expansion was a result of what can only be pure inspiration. It all came to me so quickly, like some sort of vision, and I'm extremely happy with how it turned out. That's not to say I don't want feedback; by all means, suggestions are welcome. The goal of this expansion was to fuse two things my dad and I both enjoy in a way that we could enjoy together, and I think I was successful in that. This expansion is 350 cards (including randomizers) with 5 piles out of 26 having an Attack.
First, let me briefly explain the theme of this expansion. Pikmin is an intellectual property of Nintendo primarily in the form of a video game series. It features a miniature humanoid spacefarer exploring a world which is heavily implied to be Earth in the distant future. He encounters small creatures which are somehow a combination of plant and animal which doesn't seem to be as a result of a catastrophic science experiment, but rather a complex biological ecosystem. These creatures are incredibly strong relative to their size, are extremely capable of cooperation, and are quick to display loyalty. In the video game, you grow these creatures from seeds, pluck them, and throw them at objects or enemies for the purposes of exploration, defense, propagation, and collecting materials.
In this expansion, these themes of encountering strange creatures, propagating pikmin sprouts, and throwing them for various purposes are explored, and occasionally expertly translated into the mechanics of Dominion. If you would like to play with these cards yourself, be aware that the new mechanics introduced will make the game significantly longer. My goal is always to design cards in a way that they can be used in a completely random Kingdom and will not encourage buying that card in every game. On the other hand, I'm so happy with how they turned out that I sometimes buy it even if it's not the best strategy. This expansion makes use of Coffers (from Guilds or from Renaissance), but you could play with generic counters if you prefer; you will need some counters to use as the new token for the primary mechanic of this expansion.
Without further ado, let's look at a couple of cards to explain the main mechanic.
As you can see, there is a new icon, and that icon is accompanied by a new type. The new icon represents Sprouts, and I will call them that throughout. As you can see on Pellet, it is primarily a vanilla-style effect in the same vein as +Coffers and +Villagers; the effect is similar, too -- put a token on the mat to use later. If you take a look at Candypop Bud and Cave Pit, you can see that there are ways to lose them other than using them, sometimes it matters how many you have, and you have multiple "colors" at once. I'll explain that bit in just a moment. Antenna Beetle is an example of Attacking the Sprouts of the other players.
The new type plays the same role as the Looter, Fate, and Doom types. It provides a setup instructions rule when these cards are in the Kingdom (or Black Market deck, etc.) When a PNF card is in the Kingdom, as part of setup, you'll randomly choose 3 colors, give each player a copy of that color, and finally give each player a copy of Glow pikmin. These are the 4 mats you'll grow your Sprouts on, representing the various colors of pikmin and their various unique traits. This means that Kingdoms are even more variable, because you will be randomly selecting 3 of 10 colors to use for that game. This is probably as clear as mud, so let's look at all the colors before I try to explain anything further.
Yes, I know "mushroom" isn't a color; it's the easiest way to put it in the instructions of a card and have it flow. The word "color" is defined in the rulebook as these 11 things, including Glow.
So what are we looking at here? Each color has 2 effects you can apply using your sprouts. They're color-coded and use shorthand so you don't have to read the technicalities over and over again and just read what it does. For example, look at the Red pikmin. The upper half is colored yellow and has an icon of a circled "C", indicating that you can use this effect at the start of your Clean-up phase; next to that icon is the sprout icon and the number 1, indicating that you spend 1 sprout to do this effect; finally, you have the instruction itself. A hypothetical rulebook for this expansion would include the word "throw" in the same way the rulebooks include the words "pass," "call," and "exchange." "Throw" is a keyword in this expansion which means you put the indicated card into your play area without doing the effect of the card; in this case you're using your Silver not to get +
as playing a Silver would give you, but to get the +2 Coffers that using Red pikmin to throw it gives you. Mechanically this is like spending 1 Red sprout to save
for later that you didn't spend this turn -- notice that this particular effect occurs after your Buy phase, meaning you didn't need to play your Silver this turn; the Red sprout you grew is helping you save that for later.
A "C" icon with a yellow background indicates that you can use the effect at the start of your Clean-up phase. An "A" icon with a gray background indicates that you can use the effect at the start of your Action phase. (Note: the start of your turn and the start of your Action phase happen concurrently, but you may be able to start a new Action phase without starting a new turn, so I've indicated Action phase instead of turn wholly.) A star icon with a blue background indicates it can be used at some other time; that time is indicated in the parentheses above the icon. The gray, yellow, and blue background colors are hopefully reminiscent of the gray, yellow, and blue colors of Action, Treasure, and Reaction cards, respectively, to give you an idea of when you can use the effects with less mental processing power. The purple and pink background colors do not have a moment where they can be used, but rather describe a period of time that they function during. The Glow pikmin has a green-yellow gradient background instead of a solid yellow background to distinguish itself slightly, because that ability doesn't require you to spend sprouts, but rather is a way to get +1 Sprout easily; hopefully the people you play with are generous enough to remind you if you forget to do it, but hopefully the gradient is enough to help anybody who doesn't have that luxury.
Each player is going to have 4 of these card-shaped mats to put their sprouts on as they propagate, Glow and 3 others. In the same way the instruction to discard something has a default meaning without that default restricting modifying instructions, +Sprouts also has a default. If it doesn't specify which color of sprout you get, you get to choose. If you get multiple +Sprouts at once, you can split them up or put them all on the same color however you choose.
*Let me give a little bit of theming here, then I'll do a bit of explaining in the next paragraph.* Each color of pikmin in the video games has unique traits. The red pikmin are slightly stronger, which is why both effects only require 1 Sprout to use. The yellow pikmin can be thrown much higher on account of their ears, which is why they can turn Coppers into something better and turn Silvers into
. The blue pikmin have gills; that's not extremely thematic here, but they are generally the most versatile for that reason, so they do a smaller version of a Guide hand retry. The mushroom pikmin are technically pikmin under temporary control of a monster, so they make things more difficult. The purple pikmin are much larger than other pikmin, making them many times stronger, hence a variation on Throne Room and carrying your new stuff to a more suitable location. The white pikmin are toxic if eaten, so they can kill those pesky crows, and they also have the ability to see a few millimeters through surfaces, so the ability to look at the top of your deck. The parasite pikmin are immune to heat and flames, poison gas, and electricity, so the minimal Moat effect, but they are also incapable of surviving on the surface of the planet, so a leader will have to use a candypop bud to replant them as a different color of pikmin before leaving the cavern they're found in if he wants to bring them along. The rock pikmin are probably obvious; rocks are powerful when thrown and can easily be an obstacle. The pink pikmin are winged pikmin, meaning they can avoid a significant number of obstacles while carrying things, but only if you specifically choose winged pikmin, so the effect requires you to have lots of pink pikmin. The ice pikmin have the ability to freeze enemies in place or freeze pools of water, so they help you freeze Victory cards out of your deck without costing you the points. Finally, the glow pikmin have a chance of droppng a new seed in direct sunlight, so the ability to get more of them without a card. Additionally, the most recent game only allows you to have 3 different colors under the control of a leader, but you can add glow pikmin to that squad if you enter a cave. I'll also gush about the 4 Kingdom cards above now that I've explained how +Sprouts works. Pellets are pure nutrients that are the primary method of propagating pikmin. Candypop buds grow in various colors and turn pikmin into seeds which match the color of their petals. Caves are typically where you find pikmin in colors you've never encountered before. Antenna beetles make a sound that confuse pikmin, making them stop listening to orders, and the easiest way to get your troops back is to kill the beetle.
A lot of these are pretty straightforward after learning what the icon means and getting a definition for "throw." Red is just vanilla bonuses; if you manage to play a card on someone else's turn, you would then have the opportunity to throw some Coppers on that player's turn, but +1 Action and +1 Buy don't do anything on other players' turns. Yellow is just vanilla bonuses, but be careful; the +1 Card, +1 Action, and +1 Buy together are one choice, and the +
is the other choice.
Mushroom is the first one that really needs clarification; there's the ages long debate of cost-increasers combining with cost-reducers, but forget all that -- sprouts can't be removed from piles, so this is a permanent increase to the cost of that pile. Treat the pile as though a different number were printed on the card, meaning that the cost increase happens before the cost decrease, but specific changes to a card's cost aren't affected; more clearly put, a Wayfarer with a Sprout on its pile would cost
until you gain something else, for example a Duchy, so it would then cost
, not
. Also important to note, this costs you 5 sprouts total, one of each color and the one more that is show in the throwing cost.
When looking at Purple pikmin, remember that throwing a card puts it into play, so you can only throne a single card under normal circumstances, and you can't do it if you have a Duration waiting from a previous turn, or other things that would stop you by being in play.
For Parasite pikmin, maybe it's worth clarifying that "other" here is referring to the 3 colors that aren't Parasite. Apart from that, I'm honestly still waffling about a Moat effect that only works for a single turn. Maybe somebody has a suggestion for how to fix that up, because it's not optimal for games with more than 2 players.
For Rock pikmin, remember that only the top card of a pile can be gained or bought, so this ability is essentially preventing people from buying certain cards until they can afford to get rid of the crappy Copper you put there. Also check the rules for split piles found in Empires, etc. for more specifics.
The Pink pikmin are going to require an example, I think. If you have 4 Pink sprouts, Silver costs
, because 4 is 1 more than
, so reduce
by 1. If you have 7 Pink sprouts, Silver costs
and Gold costs
. It also interacts with itself, but in a very niche way, because having 5 Pink sprouts means you could throw a Silver to do the top effect, because Silver would be in the cost range when you need to select a card to throw. (As with all Dominion instructions, you go from top to bottom, meaning you spend 1 sprout before throwing a card, so the cost of Silver would go from
to
before you are instructed to throw a card if you had 4 Pink sprouts to start with.)
If somebody sees anything else that needs clarified, please say something.
Take a look at these ones.
These are the two split piles in the set. I don't think they require much explanation. Rescue Corps might need a different wording, but I'm hoping the word "second" is literal enough. It does also mean that more Rescue Corps don't make you play the card even more, but I don't think that's a problem, and it's mitigated even more by being the bottom half of a split pile. Ultra-bitter Spray uses the same wording as the -
token, so that should be fine. I don't remember the motivation for Ultra-spicy Spray being look at 4 and put 3 into your hand instead of +3 Cards, so maybe that needs to change, but whatever. Ultra-bitter seems to me to encourage keeping track of how many copies your opponent has so you can decide whether to attack them back at the cost of giving them a sprout.
*Lore paragraph* The rescue pup has a good nose for what you might find and can be trained to dig stuff up. He can also act in the place of a squad leader. Ultra-bitter spray encases creatures in a rock-hard shell, so that's why it's an Attack and slows the other players down. Ultra-spicy spray gives your squad a brief burst of energy.
Let's look at this next one.
OK, here are the Fruit cards. You may have noticed that the Mushroom pikmin mentioned them. When the Scornet Swarm is in the Kingdom, shuffle the 13 Fruits together (there's one of each) and form a face-down pile. You don't know what you'll get until you gain one. They're the 12 Boons with +1 Sprout added on, (as well as an Estate with +1 Sprout). I specifically excluded the Swamp's gift because my dad doesn't have Nocturne, so there's +1 Coffers instead of that Boon. Blonde Impostor is basically just a Copper without the Shadow part, so that's the only one that's not strictly a Boon effect. Unfortunately, that means it'll have a different back, so this one Fruit has to be two cards; one for the back that gets shuffled into the Fruits pile and one that you add to your deck with the appropriate back for a Shadow card. The Fruits pile is not part of the Supply like Ruins are, so this is more like the Black Market pile, not requiring a type. I guess there's an argument to be made that Scornet Swarm needs some setup text since the Fruits should be shuffled, unlike Horses and Spoils.
*Lore paragraph* The scornet swarm is the boss battle of the Twilight River area of the 3rd video game in the series. More specifically, the scornet maestro is the boss, but he conducts the swarm as the primary aspect of the combat. I had to name it this way instead because it's a Village. Man, I'm good at this. You can see in the image that the reward for defeating it is the seed hive. These 13 fruits are the 13 you can find spread around the Twilight River. The characters in this game are extraterrestrial, implying that they don't have foods like this where they're from, not even considering the enormity of these fruits; you can pretty clearly see how small pikmin are compared to an orange, a mangosteen, and a raspberry in the images, in case you were picturing them at a different size from my description earlier. The characters actually give them these names, not me -- I know what the correct name for a persimmon is. The only ones that specifically line up are dusk=moon and sunset=sun. Blonde Impostor accidentally feels thematic with the Shadow type, but it's purely an accident because I created these before Rising Sun and added the Shadow type after the fact. (I hadn't noticed that it was strictly inferior to Citrus Lump until recently.)
These ones are going to need a smidgeon more explanation, I think:
Nectar gets you lots of +Sprouts, but you don't get to choose. Since it has a new Heirloom, you'll need some rule that tells you what to do if the Kingdom includes more than 7 cards which come with an Heirloom. I personally would say to play with the first 7 that were revealed when choosing your 10 Kingdom cards, but play however you want; I really don't think this is a critical element. Glow sap avoids the issue of being Treasure-Night by either giving you +1 Buy (which you need early in your Buy phase) or checking how many you have left after your Buy phase.
Bloom might need clarification on what "every second" means. (If English isn't your first language, it means the list of even ordinal numbers.) I see this as completely analogous to cards that say "the first [something] this turn." The issue with "the first time you play a Silver this turn" is that you might play a Silver before you play the card which says that. If you do, you've already missed your chance. The same thing applies here, so you start counting from the beginning of the turn, not from when you play the card, and you won't be getting a refund if you've already thrown 2 or more cards by the time you play this card.
The wording on Lumiknoll is trying to match the wording on Palace, so maybe this doesn't need this clarification, but a set of all 4 colors is counting how many sprouts you have. If you end the game with 4 Red, 7 Rock, 6 Ice, but only 1 Glow, you only have 1 set, meaning each of your Lumiknolls is worth 1
.
*Lore paragraph* If you don't immediately pluck pikmin when they sprout, they'll bud and bloom after enough time. That's what's happening in Bloom, and pikmin get faster and stronger as they bud and bloom, so the discount. It was too convoluted to give a literal discount, so you just get some free ones if you plan it out properly. You're also remodeling to get a card which is either faster or stronger or both. When pikmin drink nectar, they also bloom, so you haven't missed out on your guys blooming if you pluck them while they have a leaf. The card gives you more sprouts to simulate your existing guys being faster and stronger. Glow sap is produced at night, hence it is a Night card, but I also wanted it to still yield
so I wouldn't have to consider the implications for the opening. Glow sap is produced in lumiknolls, but the cards don't really interact at all; oh well -- Nectar giving a full set at a time does, so maybe you could say it's a connection, but maybe I'm just full of hot air. Anyway, glow sap is produced at night, and glow pikmin only act at night, (or when it's otherwise as dark as night,) so the effect specifically interacts with Glow pikmin. Lumiknoll's effect does match how it functions in the game if you hold it up to the light and squint; it's a Night card, but also the glow pikmin automatically return to you after they carry something there, so you get to return a card to your deck.
And here are all the other cards in one huge dump.
These should be quick. Honeywisp is a terminal Lighthouse, but the +1 Sprout should make up for that. Remember to follow instructions in order, because Ship Part will give you your +Sprouts before you figure out whether it gives +
or +
; Ship Part also specifies that you pick one color ["of a color"] to put both Sprouts on, unlike the normal +Sprouts that would let you split them up. If you do the Goolix Reaction, you choose your colors before your opponent makes any other decisions, so it would be (1) spend Sprouts, (2) throw a card, (3) Goolix Reaction, both the +1 Card and the +2 Sprouts, (4) follow the instructions of the throwing effect. Maybe I need to eliminate the word "first" in that Reaction. Lithopod just makes cycling your entire deck at the start of your next turn free, assuming you start with a Glow; it doesn't increase your handsize, but you can make sure you have 5 good cards. Maybe that's too strong. Sporovid and Carrots I wanted some more limited PNF cards, even more limited than Cave Pit; don't forget you can keep getting a Glow every turn if you have +Buys like on Sporovid. Expedition Leaders doesn't list a bonus for 0 Sprouts because your bonus is that you got +4 Sprouts. The 5 possible combos are (0) +4 Sprouts; (1) +
, +2 Sprouts, move 1 Sprout, gain a Silver; (2) +2 Cards, +1 Buy, move 2 Sprouts; (3) +1 Action, +
, lose 2 Sprouts, move 1 Sprout; (4) +3 Cards, +1 Action, lose 4 Sprouts. Smoky Progg is a hard decision unless you're not pursuing a Sprouts strategy, then the Attack is virtually harmless; I'm not sure if that's a generally bad sign for the card. Remember that you get to choose the order that effects happen when you're told to do them at the same time, so Glowmob will let you use some of your Glow Sprouts for the cycling effect before you convert whatever's left into
.
*Lore paragraph* (Honeywisp) They're harmless creatures which produce nectar for the pikmin to consume. (Ship Part) The more guys you have in your squad, the bigger the treasure you can get. This had to be a Treasure, because ship parts are a type of treasure in the video game. (Bulblax) It's a nocturnal boss monster. No other thematic link, unfortunately. (Buried Junk) The image is of a roll of masking tape, and I definitely consider that to be junk. Techically the video game classifies this stuff as treasure, so it's a Treasure, but I obviously couldn't call the card "Buried Treasure." Also, check out the lore above about white pikmin and the revealing things just below the surface. (Goolix) Stuff gets suspended in the goo, so it's a Reaction. That's all I got. (Bomb Rock) This one's pretty obvious; it blows stuff up. I considered making it interact with Yellow because they have a special ability to utilize the bomb rocks, but that would've been too convoluted. (Carrots) Pikmin are named after a certain type of carrot because of how similar they look after they sprout. (Lithopod) You have to throw a pikmin at it's breathing hole to make it reveal its weak point, which is why you're sacrificing your own Sprouts. It gives you a big opportunity and you do get your pikmin back, so that's the ongoing effect. (Mamuta) These are friendly monsters. If they find any pikmin roaming around, they plant them back in the ground. Sometimes its annoying because you'd told those guys to go do something, but sometimes it's nice because you find them later and they've bloomed. The friendly aspect makes it even better that it mirrors Bishop so nicely. (Snavian) These are fairly easy bosses, so the Attack is fairly mild. (Sporovid) Sadly, I don't really have any thematic connections for this one. The image is of the toxic variety of sporovids; maybe I could stretch it to say that you get one of each color because of how varied sporovids are. On second thought, just forget I said anything. (Arachnorb) In contrast to Sporovid, Arachnorb is the poster child of meshing mechanics and theme. Arachnorbs do not try to eat your guys, just smash them with their huge feet, so the trashing effect when you play it. On top of that, there's always something valuable in the orb that is their body, so if you kill/trash Arachnorb, you gain something good that would've fit inside. (Expedition Leaders) For most of this post, I've been describing things like the player is the leader, so the theme isn't quite as strong with this one, but I guess the player is still the one making the decisions. Anyway, the idea is that you're making a bunch of decisions and planning ahead. Are you going to get a bunch of sprouts right now to save up for that amazing double Laboratory effect? (Onion) It's not technically an onion, but onions are called that because of their resemblance to onions. The onion is the nest of the pikmin; they shelter there at night when most predators are out, and they bring nutrients to the onion to be converted into seeds to grow more pikmin. (Smoky Progg) Believe it or not, the smoky progg is a relative of the mamuta. For both cards, +2 Sprouts, trash a card, and the other players do something. Unfortunately for them, it's an Attack this time. The smoke is actually so noxious that it instantly kills even the pikmin that are immune to poisons, hence losing one of each color if you choose that option. They are a source of pearls if you manage to kill one before it kills you, so you get +1 Coffers. This and one of the 13 Fruit are the only cards in the set that give you +Coffers, but it was super important to have the +Coffers on the Red, so I didn't mind including it elsewhere in the set. (Glowmob) This is a special technique that glow pikmin can perform. It stuns even large creatures if performed correctly, so that's why it's a big payload if you can plan for it properly. Hopefully it's pretty clear that glowmob is a glow pikmin technique, so that's why it's a Night card and specifically requires you to have Glow pikmin.
That is all the cards. I specifically chose to have 3 random colors and 1 color that appeared every time so I could do things like name that one color that was guaranteed in some effects. It's also beneficial that you can collect them without using any of the PNF cards, and I think that would've been less impactful if it only had a small chance of appearing in the game. It's particularly important for the Attacks that mess with the opponent's sprouts.
To round it out to 350 cards, there are 4 landscapes, too.
Let me be perfectly blunt and say that I am not good at putting costs on these things. Is Ujadani actually worth
? No clue. It's supposed to be super unlikely. Combos well with Secret Passage, though. It's really bad if you have any Shadows in your deck though, but I guess you could just plan to play them all before you even attempt this. The wording is meant to be the same as how it's worded on the Boon.
Dandori Challenge dishes out a point for every pile. You need to be really efficient to win piles and also win the game, but if you make it easy for your opponent to win too many piles, you're going to have to be that much more efficient at the normal ways of earning points.
Trial of the Sage Leaf exists primarily because I wanted to have a landscape that uses the sprouts. It's got something of a unique quirk; maybe it's not technically a setup rule if it doesn't happen while you're setting up, but you get out the 4 options during setup, and I wanted some way to make it so that you choose right away, maybe even before you've decided to go for the Project at all. My gut says that this also sort of interacts with the first-player advantage by making the first person choose before the subsequent players have even finished their opening two buys. I don't know. Anyway, the wording is slightly ambiguous, so "after each player's second turn" means that each player does the thing after his own second turn, not that each player does it after all players have had their second turn. I think "your chosen color" is clear, though. I chose those 4 colors because they aren't particularly complicated, but more importantly I couldn't just say to pick any one you want, because some of the colors care about what other colors you have, and you'll only have 1 color here. Also, note that you're not preventing the other players from choosing the same color as you. Maybe everybody picks the same one, and I think that's probably likely to get it to match with the best strategy in the Kingdom.
Lastly is thje Prophecy. Somehow, this one seems totally self-explanatory. This could be a slower game, especially if you're not getting much in the way of +Cards.
*Lore paragraph* Ujadani are tiny insects that have a very unusual lifecycle or something that makes them only appear on very rare occasions. They don't carry many nutrients, but they do produce nectar, as well as bitter and spicy juices. It's a big benefit that very rarely happens. The dandori challenge is pretty self-explanatory. I don't know if "dandori" is a normal word or if it was made up by the game designers, because pretty much every search result on Google talks about the video game, even if you don't mention the IP at all. It's all about efficiency and productivity, so you have to play well while you're competing. The trial of the sage leaf is a series of dandori challenges. It doesn't really relate thematically, unfortunately. I do think it works as a trial, though, because you have to think about how it changes the power level of your
s and how they differ from your opponent's
s. During a night expedition, all the nocturnal predators are out and about, so Attacks are easier to get. At night, you don't have access to any pikmin except glow pikmin, which you only have access to at night, and they automatically return to you after completing a task, so you're putting cards back onto your deck.
Well, I don't know what else I should say. It gives me so much pleasure seeing how well I was able to translate the themes and mechanics of the Pikmin series into the mechanics of Dominion, and hearing the agreement from my family members, especially my dad. My excitement over this expansion also prompted me to create so many more custom cards, so I hope I'll get to share them soon. This post took me about 7 hours to write, so it won't be the next couple of days that I share the next set of cards with you all. Again, any feedback is welcome, just know that weavile are competitive and have sharp claws, so I can be quite intimidating when I'm challenged. I promise it's not to insult you or make you regret saying anything, it's just my nature.
The art in these is almost exclusively screenshots. There are 3 that are official promotional artwork, but Goolix and Smoky Progg are fanart which I attributed.
If you're trying to figure out how this is 350 cards, the official game supports 6 players, but I don't, so there's only 4 of the Heirloom and of each color, and Glow is on the back of one full set of 10 colors.
Thank you so much if you even as much as enjoyed reading through this.
