[edit] Strategy
Mining Village is a village with an optional one-shot payload effect. Throughout the majority of the game, it functions essentially identically to Village; like other villages, it enables the building of engines and should be added only once you have established some deck control and added some terminals that risk colliding, typically in the early midgame. Because the bonus is not an especially powerful one, is available only once per copy, and decreases your terminal space from next turn onwards, many alternative villages, such as Worker's Village or Wandering Minstrel, tend to be stronger choices at the price point.
Mining Village’s self-trashing effect to generate has two main use cases.
- Primarily, it increases your reach in the endgame. At the very end of the game you can trash most or all of your Mining Villages if doing so provides enough extra (and you have the +Buy to accompany it) to close the game out. Since you must decide whether to trash a Mining Village as soon as you play it, and you will usually need to play at least some copies early in your turn for the village effect, you will sometimes have to make this decision without knowing whether you will be able to draw your deck this turn and therefore what the extent of your purchasing power will be. This can create situations where you have to weigh up the chance of winning the game immediately against the possibility of having to play another turn with a deck that is missing essential villages and no longer has the one-shot payload available.
- Rarely, Mining Village can be used in the midgame to spike a high price point for a key buy such as Citadel or Inheritance, since it generates as much as a Silver without being a stop card. While it is usually not worthwhile to spend an early buy on a Mining Village solely for this purpose, it is worth considering if you have a Mining Village anyway.
