| − | *Setup tip: shuffle the randomizer cards and pick one, that will be the chosen card.
| |
| − | *If the chosen Action card is also a Victory card, they will be worth an additional 2{{VP}}. This means that {{Card|Great Hall}} and {{Card|Mill}} are worth 3{{VP}}, while {{Card|Dame Josephine}}, {{Card|Island}} and {{Card|Nobles}} are now worth 4{{VP}}.

| − | Obelisk, much like its more-famed cousin {{Landmark|Tower}}, encourages pile-driving, and in particular rewards players who risk opening turns to pile-drive a certain pile, possibly weaving those cards into a novel, winning strategy. This Landmark in particular works extremely well with gainers, such as {{Card|Workshop}}, {{Card|Ironworks}}, and {{Card|Cobbler}}.

| − | {{Quote|Text= 1{{VP}} per card costing {{Cost|4}} wasn't very interesting; ditto 1{{VP}} per card costing {{Cost|6}}+. 2{{VP}} per Attack seemed okay for a while but didn't survive. I then tried 2{{VP}} per card with 2+ types. It feels like Obelisk covers "this random pile is worth points."

| |
| − | Obelisk is a better fit as a [[Trait]] than as a [[Landmark]], since it has the "pick a pile" thing.
