Cost=none, Vps=0, Prereq=2 Occupations Whenever you use the "Plow 1 field" or "Plow 1 field/and or Sow" Action space, you also receive 1 Stone. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

I think I prefer my first version, but this would give it something visual. |
An alternate version: "Place 3 stone on 3 empty spaces on your farm. You receive the stone when you plow those spaces."Jul 29, 2010 10:07am [quote] |

You could strengthen the alternate version by saying "Place 3 stone on 3 empty spaces on your farm. These spaces now count as Used. If you plow these fields, you receive the stone." |
I like the alternate version, but then that limits the card to only 3 Stone and makes you plan your fields first. So I guess it would weaken the card. Therefore maybe keep as is.Jul 29, 2010 11:14am [quote] (Edit: Jul 29, 2010 11:15am) |

The reason I limited it to 3 stone in the alternate version is that the alternate could give all three stone for one use of the Riding Plow, whereas the original only pays 1 stone/use. | Jul 29, 2010 2:16pm [quote] |

i like the original version. i good plow is already a strong card and the alternate version makes it even stronger. i like rewarding the guy/girl without a plow who keeps plowing away anyway. i also like that the original doesn't benefit field watchman, which is obviously strong and already combo with lots of cards. | Jul 29, 2010 8:41pm [quote] |

Agree with hunter. This version is the best. | Sep 6, 2010 1:31am [quote] |

If you remove the requirement and the vp, this will reward early plowing Or is there a thematic reason I'm totally missing? |
Why does this require 3 occupations?Nov 24, 2010 4:52am [quote] |

I don't like free cards without prerequisites, particularly free cards without prerequisites that can give you 5+ stone. Feel free to suggest an alternate prerequisite or cost. |
There is no thematic reason for occupation requirements in general. Nov 24, 2010 4:58am [quote] |

I did vote yes, but I'm just on a mission against high occ requirements |
Well, the most common play style is to plow 0 fields before round 9 and have at least 3 occs by then. This card rewards exactly that playing style, which isn't necessarily a good thing imo Nov 24, 2010 5:06am [quote] |

Yeah, you make a good point. I'll mull it over. I don't want this to be purely free, and I'd rather not put an actual cost on it either, so I need an alternate prerequisite. | Nov 24, 2010 5:52am [quote] |
