I like this one a lot. I'm not sure what the correct cost should be for this card though. chris

nice and neat, just remove the food cost and give it 1 vp i would say, like drinking trough from E deck. ss

Or change the cost to 2w+2c and give 2p. The effect of the card will rarely be used. hala

I don't think you can build a stable in the forest pasture.		 rune_

Alternatively eliminate all costs and VP associated with the card.

The effect is very minor but it still costs a minor improvement action, which seems right. The smart play with this is probably a 4 space, 8 wood pasture which can hold 16 animals total of 2 different types.		 trey

I dont get why this card has such a good score.

The effect is similar to Animal keeper, an occupation that is drafted on average later than 6th pick (6.1) and played less than every fourth time (24.3 %).
Other similar occupations are Stable master (6.1, 19.4 %) and Animal tamer (5.7, 37 %) but those even give extra space for animals.

Sure, these are all occupations, what about minors:

The afforementioned Drinking Through is drafted on average as 5.5th pick and played in 42.5 % of its games. How often it is played just for the point, i cant say. Shepherd's Pipe, at least somewhat similar, 6.0 and 41.6 %.

So all in all i think that this cards effect will very rarely see play and if this card gets played, it will most often be for the point. Much too weak for my liking, there are existing cards that do something very similar and on top those dont get much love.

A definite NO vote in my eyes and a wasted opportunity to include another good card in the G-deck.		 zlorfik

i had it a few times in solo games but didn't play because of the wood cost. the effect is very small.

instead of "pasture spaces" it should just say "pastures". otherwise i don't know how it should work on pastures that cover multiple spaces but have one stable only.		 letsdance
