Cost=none, Vps=1, Prereq=No Occupations Place 1 Food on each of the next Round spaces, up to the number of completed rounds. At the start of these rounds, you receive the Food. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

Interesting. I'd play it without regret in Round 1, often. | Aug 22, 2010 1:33pm [quote] |

i am really torn on the issue of easy-to-play minors in round 1. i think most of the good players understand how valuable it is to have them, and on the one hand, i think G2 needs some. on the other hand, we all know how brutal it is to go 4th, and have the player who went first go Occ; then SP. This card is one minor blow against that tyranny, haha. |
tweaked. always technically playable for 1vp (so long as you have no occs) but food is only available except in rounds 3-7. i considered making the food come at the end of the game, but it will be more often than not worth waiting a couple rounds. Aug 22, 2010 1:51pm [quote] |

yes for me. | Aug 22, 2010 9:53pm [quote] |

Cards start with the "if clause" or time information. |
Its more Agricola-like to say, "If there are 7/8/9/10/11/12 rounds left to play, place 1 Food on the next 6/5/4/3/2/1 rounds. At the start of those rounds, you receive the Food."Aug 25, 2010 2:41pm [quote] |

my intention is that this is playable in round 1, but for no food. so i'm rewiring it a bit to make it clear. obviously like Alms, the tradeoff being: its worth a VP but with less flexibility and no immediate Food delivery. |
nods, appreciated. If I didn't want there to be a few more Ponds in the game, I'd have called this 'Liquid Alms' haha. Aug 25, 2010 3:34pm [quote] (Edit: Aug 25, 2010 3:47pm) |

Maybe add in parenthesis, "(You may play this in Round 1 for zero Food)". | Aug 27, 2010 5:43pm [quote] |

I like cards with a "No Occupations"-requirement because they help with an alternative strategy, namely not playing occs early | Aug 29, 2010 2:27pm [quote] |
