A bonus point card for veggie food engines. Uses same idea as Tanner/Brushmaker/Basin Maker. You pay clay to make the jars in which you preserve the jam. Is the upper limit for points needed or is the clay cost enough? rune_

Anyone got any thoughts? Too weak? Too strong? rune_

Compare to Clay Path: 3c for 3points. This card also gives bonus points at the rate of 1pt per 1c, trading flexibility on your clay payment schedule+amount for the requirement of burning vegetables. I think it is neither overpowered nor underpowered, and nicely supplements cards like Carrot Farmer. dshin

Compared to Clay Path, i'd say this card is very weak. Maybe add, "When you play this card, you receive 3 Clay." or "When you play this card, you receive 1 Vegetable." chris

Oh, my comment assumed this was a minor, not an occupation. I agree then, as an occupation, this is very weak. dshin

It encourages actually eating vegetables rather than use them as efficient point builders. chriss

I disagree. I think the best use of this card points-wise would be to try to produce 9 veggies, and then drop this, pay 5 clay, not have to feed in the final harvest, and then get max points for both. In reality, this will probably be somewhere in the middle for use.

In practice, this card is pretty much like a weaker Glassblower. You're basically converting 1 clay to 3 food, but you need Cooking Hearth in order to use it. You can convert whenever you want, but you need to have a vegetable in your supply to do it.		 slim

Zug had some nice use of this with his Storyteller Clown CH Spices combo. He grabbed 4c late and dropped this. rune_
