Don't like the free stable on cattle, 1a spam is obnoxious already. Maybe 1f for the stable? I think 1w on either space is totally fine for this card. wsefranc

Current wording: Each time before you use the "Sheep" or "Cattle" accumulation space, you can build exactly 1 stable for 1 wood and at no cost, respectively.

No need for the word "respectively" in my opinion... And I would strike out the "and" in "and at no cost".

Each time before you use the Sheep or Cattle accumulation space, you can build exactly 1 stable for 1 wood at no cost.

But how do people know that the stable is no cost on the cattle space but costs 1w on the sheep space?

It needs the word "respectively" to communicate this.

Aren't slashes the standard for formatting cards like this? So the text could just be Each time you use the Sheep/Cattle accumulation space, you can build exactly one stable for 1 wood/no cost. Maybe it's a bit clunky like this, so the current wording could be preferred. sidnv

The publisher's comments/style guide says to avoid [number]/[number] to avoid looking like fractions (even nonsensical ones.) So that might be it.

I would also write it like this:
"Each time before you use the Sheep/Cattle accumulation space, you can build exactly 1 stable for 1/0 wood."

But that makes no sense to me. Why changing it when decks A, B and C are already written in that style? I mean that's the whole point of it, to make wording equal and not letting sound every card different!

No. Wooden Whey Bucket uses "bzw.", but this is not such a common expression, and quickly flying over Dulcinaria I found many more cards that use "/" instead.
