Pile (from bottom to top) 1 Clay, Vegetable, Stone, Grain, Wood, Reed on this card. Whenever you use a person to take Food from the "Day Laborer", "Fishing" or "Traveling Players" Action space, additionally take the top item on this card. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

Very fun in solo. You need to take Food spots anyway. | Aug 5, 2010 6:01pm [quote] |

otherwise it is much stronger in 4er compare to other sizes. Also, since it is "Food" Connoisseur, why give building materials? Sheep, Grain, Boar, Cattle, Vegetable, then it is a super combo with Food Critic. Maybe need to leave 1 food on the spot so it's not overpowered. |
maybe "only" provide food ?Aug 5, 2010 8:30pm [quote] |

Its "Food" Connoisseur because you are sampling Food on the board and getting paid in various ways for it. |
UPDATED: to only provides food. Yea, i don't want it to combine with RSF.Aug 5, 2010 8:36pm [quote] (Edit: Aug 5, 2010 8:36pm) |

i think its overpowered, even if mostly used with DL. | Dec 22, 2010 7:40am [quote] |

I think it's nice. It may combine with any DL, TP or fish cards. | Dec 22, 2010 7:45am [quote] |

Compare it to Resource Collector. I think the strength is right. And note, Food Connoisseur does not work with RSF. You need to take DL, TP, or Fishing 6 times to get all the stuff, while with Resource Collector you don't have to do anything to get the stuff:Dec 22, 2010 7:47am [quote] |

On DL, you dont "take food from the action space", you receive the food from the general supply. You only take stuff from an action space if it is an accumulating space. Im not saying it should necessarily work with DL, just pointing something out. |
With the current wording i would say that this card does not work on DL, just Fishing and TP.Dec 24, 2010 4:19am [quote] (Edit: Dec 24, 2010 4:19am) |

To include DL, you could say "Whenever you use an Action space that only provides Food with one of your people, . . ." This wording follows Outrider, and to some extent Net Fisherman. The biggest problem I have with the current language isn't the DL issue, but the fact that it seems like it would combo with Net Fisherman or Fish Hook when the cards took food from Fishing. That seems odd, since nothing else combos with them. |
I'm not sure whether I agree with zlorfik or not. I don't think there are any cards that use this language to make that distinction. For clarity's sake, it should be changed.Dec 29, 2010 1:10pm [quote] |

We discovered this combines with Fish Hook. Do we want that? I think no. I'm thinking of changing the text to "whenever you use a person's action to take food..." | Jan 13, 2011 11:09pm [quote] |
