i dont think discarding begging card is a good idea.
also i think you could remove the 1vp for the card..

Pretty straightforward card.
Similar effect to House Goat and Lovable Vagabond from O deck.
The new twist is that you can take multiple begging cards early and then discard them 1 by 1. Kind of like a loan.

If you get too greedy and then get shut out of playing this in time that really hurts.

To make it a bit harder the cost could be upped to 1 stone and 1 reed.

i got no comment on house goat, its quite a strong minor for me, but lovable vagabond have the restriction that you cannot choose to take the begging card if you have food feed your family member, mean it work only, ie: you have exactly 3 food and 2 family member to feed.

but this, ppl can choose to have the begging card instate of feeding rite?
its actually not big deal to have these strong card, as i consider "multiple begging cards early" is something strong for me, i just think that discarding begging card isn't a good idea.

This card does not change the rules. If Vagabond cant choose then the owner of this card cant choose to beg either.

Maybe this is also more similar to Medicant Friar. It is strictly better then Mendicant but then i dont think that Medicant is that good a card.
Like Mendicant, it should be a backup plan if you cant feed somewhere during the middle game.

Your right though that the vp should be removed, people should use it as a backup plan, not wanting to play this every game.
Changed to have no vps.

I think the best use of this card would be to get it out before the second harvest, and take a total of 5 beggars in the first and second harvest. A loan, like zlorfik said. Similar to Mendicant, but more demanding to use and more powerful. Lovable Vagabond shouldn't be used for comparison because it's a crap card. tacticus

all right, i voted yes on this one now.
At least its not some super strong card.

Should you pay 1 food to remove the begging?
Else it a loan and 5+ delayed food.

mendicant is one of my first picks in drafting. therefore i consider this to be overpowered. if you have to pay 1 food for remove the begging card i think it would be o.k. i have not so much a problem with a VP. the VP makes it more different from mendicant. letsdance
