Non-terminal

A non-terminal is any Action which provides at least +1 Action. These cards allow you to play more Actions after them and so chain cards together; any number of non-terminals can be played on a single turn. This differentiates them from terminal actions, of which only one may be played each turn without assistance from villages.

Cards that provide +1 Card and +1 Action have the nickname "cantrips"; these can usually be played with no penalty to yourself either in handsize reduction or lack of extra Actions. Any non-terminal Action that provides more than +1 Card is non-terminal draw, and any card providing more than +1 Action can be referred to as a village.

Special Treasure cards that have Action-like abilities, such as Loan, are sometimes classified with non-terminal Actions, because, like non-terminal Actions, any number of Treasures can be played on a turn without affecting your ability to play terminal Actions.
