− | '''Augur''' is a [[type]] of [[Kingdom card]] from the [[Allies]] expansion. There are 4 copies each of 4 differently-named Augurs with a single [[randomizer]] card, forming a [[split pile]]: when Augurs are selected as a [[Kingdom]] card for a game, they are put into a single [[Supply]] pile in order by increasing [[cost]], of which only the top card can be gained at any given time. The cheapest of the four allows you to "[[rotate]]" the pile—move all copies of the current top card to the bottom of the pile, revealing the next card in the sequence. | + | '''Augur''' is a [[type]] of [[Kingdom card]] from the [[Allies]] expansion.

− | |Text=Split piles are back! Only this time they rotate. Also they have four different cards in them. Let's see one to better talk about this. It's: Augurs.
| |
− |
| |
− | So the pile starts with 4 copies of {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Acolyte}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Sorceress}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Sibyl}}. And you can only buy/gain the top card. But, the first card lets you "rotate" the pile. This puts all copies of whatever's on top onto the bottom. If the top has three {{Card|Herb Gatherer|Herb Gatherers}} and then {{Card|Acolyte|Acolytes}} etc., rotating it puts all three {{Card|Herb Gatherer|Herb Gatherers}} on the bottom. If it was just one {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} and then {{Card|Acolyte|Acolytes}}, that one {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} goes on the bottom. If the pile has different cards left in it, then rotating it will uncover a different one. It gets you through the pile.
| |
− |
| |
− | So {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}, it does this rotation trick, and {{Card|Chancellor|Chancellors}} (what's that?), and also it gets a Treasure from your discard pile into play. {{Card|Acolyte}} can turn stuff into {{Card|Gold}}, but also can turn itself into whatever's on top of the Augurs pile - another {{Card|Acolyte}}, or a better card (or hey, sometimes an {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}). {{Card|Sorceress}} is a guessing game, and if you're right you {{Card|Curse}} the other players. And {{Card|Sibyl}} lets you win that guessing game.

− | |Text=The first split pile. It sold the concept; the pile was fun. {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} was very briefly a choose-two. {{Card|Acolyte}} was briefly a {{Card|Lookout}} variant where you draw the cards, ala an Adventures outtake; then for a long time it was the final card but with the upgrading removed, when I removed it everywhere else. {{Card|Sorceress}} had its wording messed with but stayed basically the same. There was a big choose-two where {{Card|Sibyl}} is, but it almost immediately became the final Sibyl.
