Obelisk is a Landmark from Empires. It rewards players with 2 for each card they have from an Action Supply pile randomly chosen at the start of the game.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- All cards from the chosen pile count, even if they have different names (such as when it is a split pile).
- Ruins (from Dominion: Dark Ages), when used, can be the pile.
Strategy
- 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 . This means that Great Hall and Mill are worth 3 , while Dame Josephine, Island and Nobles are now worth 4 .
Obelisk, much like its more-famed cousin 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 Workshop, Ironworks, and Cobbler.

Trivia
Secret History
Originally it could be any Kingdom card. I already knew from some Adventures playtesting that many people don't know that term. I used it anyway, then replaced it with Action.
Relevant outtakes
1 VP per card costing wasn't very interesting; ditto 1 per card costing +. 2 per Attack seemed okay for a while but didn't survive. I then tried 2 per card with 2+ types. It feels like Obelisk covers "this random pile is worth points."
