Ah yes jester =) just got the question from an RL game. so the german name was in my head . thanks

Yes - about 30 seconds and google convinced me that harlekin translates to harlequin, and that the closest synonym which is the name of a dominion card is jester, and this basically makes sense given the question. But after 30 seconds, I couldn't be sure!

Say I gained a ruin and my opponent plays Smugglers, will it search the ruins pile for the other copy if it's still in the supply but not on top?

[Watno]

no.

[SCSN]

Why not? Is that a specific stipulation or does it follow from some general principle that I'm unaware of (e.g. "cards have to be visible in order for them to be considered as in supply")?

That's it.  You can only gain top cards from the Supply (which stops you fishing for Knights too).  Another example: if you Ambassador a Ruins then opponents will gain them for as long as the top Ruin happens to be of the right type.

just a quick question on the subject. How about harlekin hitting a spoils?

If you mean Jester, then the spoils gets discarded, I think technically Jester player (or his possessor) chooses who gets the spoils, then nothing happens - no one actually gains it.

And this could matter if some Guilds card reacts to "when a card asks you to make a choice"!

Let's not get into hypotheticals with Guilds cards which could trigger on random things. That especially sounds like a pretty unlikely one.

Then you could argue that spoils don't cost 'up to six' since they cost 0*, not just 0.

Actually, if Swindled you can get Copper or Curse (at least with Prizes it was like that on Iso), so it does cost 0.

[ftl]

Yeah, a cost of 0* is the same as a cost of 0, the asterisk is only there as a reminder that you can't actually buy it.
