Baths is a Landmark from Empires. It holds a finite number of VP tokens, which players take from when they end a turn without having gained any cards.

  • Any way you gain a card will stop you from getting VP from this that turn.

  • On a PossessionPossession.jpg turn, the Possessed player is the one to take 2VP from this, because they cannot gain any cards on that turn.
  • If a player ends the game on a turn without gaining any cards (such as by playing a WitchWitch.jpg and emptying the CurseCurse.jpg pile), they will still get the 2VP from this, as the end-of-game check happens after the turn is ended.
  • Exchanging a card does not count as gaining a card. As an example, if your entire turn is playing a BatBat.jpg, trashing two cards, and exchanging for a VampireVampire.jpg, you will get the VP from Baths.

[edit] Strategy
