too powerful i think, especially in 4+ when you can play it early. letsdance

Hm... but how often do you/are you willing to place your 2 persons on adjacent actions? The effect triggers more often with 3+ persons... makun

how early do you take stone in 3p games? often not before round 10 when you sometimes have 4 peeps already.

1f isn't so bad in the early game. and especially in the early game there aren't so many action spaces available, it's more likely to place two next to each other than in the later game.

if this gives you 4f total it's already well above average. maybe a 3 occs requirement would be good to balance it better for all game sizes. it won't make a difference in 3p games, but you can't play it early in 4p games.

btw, this increases power a bit, but i think it should be at the end of each work phase instead of at the end of each round.

I had this and Overseer (which triggers in the same manner) and only got 4 or 5 food from it. (Played round 9 I think)

It felt weak because I was sometimes doing suboptimal actions to activate this so I could "get my money's worth" so to speak.

if you played it in round 9 for 4-5 food total, that means you got a food from it every round! that doesn't sound weak. if we want to improve it, we could give it a VP (getting engaged is something to take note of, after all!). letsdance

I feel this card as weak. Not one of my own favorites. hala

This card is very weak:

Engagementring - ADP = 4.20 - Plays (9 / 33 = 27.3%) - Wins (1 / 9 = 11.1%) - PWR = 0.4 [1.7,0.0] [2.3,0.0]

I think the cost should be changed from 1 Stone to 1 Clay. That will strengthen it AND make it more playable in 2-ER and 3-ER where Stone is rare. Also spending Clay for Food is more natural to Agricola.

can we give this a point?

1 stone for a point and some food seems fair.
