FT + Jester is just like playing a witch.
Except that it discards one Curse/V card from the opponent's current shuffle, so it is slightly weaker than a Witch, attack-wise. EDIT: Edge cases aside, that is.

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way

Fortune Teller is the only card I've never purchased (aside from the prizes and archivist).

Why am I not finding Archivist?

I wonder if there's a reason why it doesn't work like Rabble...

+2 Coin
Each other player reveals cards from the top of his deck until he reveals a card that is not a Treasure or Action card. He puts it on top and discards the other revealed cards.

Worded this way, cards like Nobles and Harem would be discarded. A fortune teller doesn't always give bad news...

Well yeah, I understand that it's different, but given the fact that Fortune Teller already isn't that spectacular, something like this might help it.

Would also work with Ruins and Shelters although leaving a Province on top is obviously more devastating than leaving a Shelter so I guess it's so so.

Fortune Teller is the only card I've never purchased (aside from the prizes and archivist).

Why am I not finding Archivist?

Because it's not an official card.  It was a card winning some design contest here on the forum, and as result ended some weeks on isotropic.

But, because of this, it's in the councilroom statistics (with a total of something lik 2.800 games played)

A contest organized by me, won by Rinkworks.

Good ol' Dougz happily indulged my request to provide the winner with a surprise: His own card on Iso (for a limited time only)!

The only cards which or not Action, Treasure, or Victory are Curse and Hovel.
