Contractor (occ-1+) Whenever you build a room, renovate your home, or build a Major Improvement, you can replace up to 1 Building resource of your choice with 1 Food. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

then it would be too strong, imagine u get well with 2s, BMW with 1r1s. Why not just make it "each major improvement cost you 1 less building of your choice." |

Quote from: tacticus on Dec 4, 2010 6:32am This seems very similar in effect to the G-Deck Inventor I agree its too similar as is. You should change it some. Maybe: "Place 3 Usage counters on this card. Whenever you extend your home or build a Major Improvement, you may return up to one Usage counter to pay 1 less resource." |

Man, I keep getting usurped by G-deck cards. I wish I was more familiar with them so I could avoid copying them. How about this: "Place 1 wood, clay, reed, and stone on this card. You may only use these resources to pay the building costs of Major Improvements. |

You can see all the G Deck cards here: http://play-agricola.com/Agricola/Gdeck/gdeck.php To make your card different and stay with the discount 1 resource theme, it needs to deal with more than just Improvements. Your new suggestion is very similar to the G Deck Resource Collector. |

Thank you for the link, chris. I do like your suggestion about the usage counters, but before I decide to go the usage route, how does this sound: "Whenever you extend or renovate your home, or build a Major improvement, you may pay up to 1 food in place of 1 building resource (your choice)." This gives the card greater application and unlimited use, but the usage comes with a small cost. Does this seem useful? |

Another idea I had would be to specialize the card with the Pottery, Basketmaker's Workshop, and Joinery: "During each harvest, you do not spend wood/clay/reed to gain the food from the Joinery, Pottery, and Basketmaker's Workshop major improvements." |
