Given the differences in how the draw works, this deck needs to behave a little bit differently than the Village/Smithy version talked about above - you would ideally want to play some of your payload actions BEFORE your draw cards, but if your payloads and particularly draw cards are both terminals, you will need extra Villages in order to make this happen. |
Disappearing villages ({{Card|Native Village}} and {{Card|Fishing Village}}, sometimes {{Card|Crossroads}}, {{Card|University}}, and {{Card|Festival}}) tend to be better here relative to the Smithy versions, as the missed card draw isn’t AS problematic here. Further, cards that give benefits for discarding (like {{Card|Horse Traders}} or {{Card|Warehouse}}) shine a little extra in these decks, as you can draw past their downsides. {{Card|Menagerie}} can sometimes work like the draw in these decks, bridging the gap between these and the next engine type. | Disappearing villages ({{Card|Native Village}} and {{Card|Fishing Village}}, sometimes {{Card|Crossroads}}, {{Card|University}}, and {{Card|Festival}}) tend to be better here relative to the Smithy versions, as the missed card draw isn’t AS problematic here.
