this is maybe a little narrow, but has some fun possibilities i think, particularly with alms or hermit.

I like it. Maybe a little narrow, but it will definitely see play. Love it in combination with the 1/2/3/4 wood cards: either just play them early for wood and immediately drop this for a low-occ strategy, or hold this until Round 14, watch everyone scramble for the points, then dash their hopes. tacticus

"Discard the Food" - does this mean I should discard the food on the round spaces? stein

correct. you forfeit any of the food on the next round spaces if you play an occ.

i'm certainly open to better ways to state this.

"...At the start of these rounds you receive the food, as long as you don't play another occupation."
or
"...At the start of these rounds you receive the food, until you play another occupation."		 stein

Perhaps just to simplify the matter, rather than placing one food on each space say "At the start of each round you receive one food from the supply, as long as you have no occupations."

I don't think there are any other cards that have you remove resources placed on the face down round cards.

Thematically it seems like you should discard the "Unemployment" minor if you plan an Occ, but it would suck to lose the VP.		 twitchbot

There are other situations where you would be forced to remove resources from face down round cards: for instance, if you discarded minor improvements like Duck Pond with Madonna Statue, or discard Wood Deliveryman with this card.

Nevertheless, I agree with Twitch's wording.		 tacticus

This would combo dangerously with the Hermit- regardless of the food bonus. It would allow players to gain the benefit of occupations through the course of the game and then discard them near the and pop out the hermit for 6 points. I am not too concerned thoug- thats a cool combo. I could also see this card being used to kill occs that would end up rewarding other players. I like it. trey
