Do you think it would work better if a stone discount was allowed? tibs

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."

This seems very similar in effect to the G-Deck Inventor tacticus

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."
