'''Sir Martin''' is one of the ten [[Knight]] cards from [[Dark Ages]]. Like the other Knights, he is an [[Action]]–[[Attack]] that [[trashing attack|trashes other players' cards]]. He provides +Buy (two Buys, even!) and is the cheapest Knight, with a cost of {{Cost|4}}. <br />

== FAQ ==<br />
=== Official FAQ ===<br />
Full FAQ on the {{Card|Knights}} page. The points specific to Sir Martin are reproduced below:<br />
<br />
* Sir Martin only costs {{Cost|4}}, though the other Knights all cost {{Cost|5}}.<br />
* When Sir Martin is the top card of the pile, it can be gained with an {{Card|Armory}} and so on.<br />
=== Other Rules clarifications ===<br />
== Strategy Article ==<br />
General {{Card|Knights}} strategy is on the Knights page. <br />
<br />
Sir Martin is the only Knight that costs {{Cost|4}} and not {{Cost|5}}. Fittingly, his bonus is typically the weakest - you rarely want more than one or two +Buy in a given turn, and in most [[engine|engines]], you'll get them from cards which also give other bonuses, like {{Card|Worker's Village}} or {{Card|Market}}. In [[Big Money]], Sir Martin's bonus to you is little better than a {{Card|Ruined Market}}. <br />
<br />
=== Synergies/Combos ===<br />
* [[engine|engines]] which would be powerful if only they had a source of +Buy<br />
* [[gainer|gainers]] like {{Card|Workshop}}, {{Card|Armory}}, and {{Card|Ironworks}}, which can pick up {{Card|Sir Martin}} at an appropriate time for free.<br />
* {{Card|Gardens}}<br />
=== Antisynergies ===<br />
* [[Big Money]]<br />
* [[engine|engines]] which already have +Buy. <br />
