Trivia
Secret History
The first version gave you + conditionally if your right-hand opponent had an empty discard pile (and cost ). It was trying to be interactive, but that's not a great thing to have to pay attention to, as sometimes they're shuffling, and sometimes they're pre-shuffling. I switched it to caring about your own discard, but also tried it being a full-time Peddler that only costs if your discard pile is empty. It was buy-phase only like Peddler, but we misplayed that some, so now it's full-time.
Retrospective
Fisherman doesn't add as much to the game as I'd like. The joy is supposed to come from "this is when I can get it cheap, but is it really the move" (plus a few combos). I like that but it didn't add up to much, and sure some people will feel bitter about openings - not just /, but / even, oh man you got to open with Fisherman plus a and I didn't.
