   TRANSLATION DISCUSSION BEGINS.
The name, of course, can be changed, but I figured why not have some fun with it. In all seriousness, I think it's an interesting mechanic that helps with a crop growing strategy. inoshishi

After some thinking, I realized Popeye was way too weak, which shouldn't be, because he's Popeye. Now he'll work double duty for you each round, but only if you feed him his spinach. A-gah-gah-gah-gah-gah-gah!

Old:
During the Field Phase of Harvest, you may pay 1 Vegetable to the supply to Plow 1 Field.

New:
During the returning home phase of each round, you may pay 1 Vegetable to Plow 1 Field, build Fences, or build Stables.

I reset the votes because the card changed so much.

The current wording (pay up to 1 vegetable) lets you pay zero vegetables and plow/stable/fence.
"Once per returning phase, you may pay 1 vegetable to..."

Gardener is certainly the best combo for this card, but I wouldn't call it broken. You won't be able to rely on the veggies for food like you usually can with Gardener. And you can brag to people that you build a complete farm using only vegetables.

He's strong to the finish!

I like it.

If we don't want to name it after Popeye directly (who knows about the copyright issues if this sees publication), it could be named "Sailor Man." I like how completely mysterious that name would be to anyone unfamiliar with Popeye.

Thanks Tact. I like "Sailor Man" as well, and I agree that if ever published, it probably can't be called Popeye. But I'll keep the name at Popeye for now so people who don't look at the picture don't get confused.

No play for Popeye yet! Because having the extra veggies to use him is kind of rare, I'm wondering if he shouldn't help out your veggie production a bit. Two ideas:

1) When you play Popeye, you receive 1 Vegetable.

2) When you play Popeye, you may harvest all of your Vegetable Fields.

What are people's thoughts about adding one of these 2 ideas? Or, should it be that if you wanna play Popeye, it's up to you to cone up with the veggies without his help?

my concern is thematic, there is no Popeye in the context of Agricola. I agree with tacticus. beso
