'''Outpost''' is an [[Action]]-[[Duration]] card from [[Seaside]]. When played, it lets you take an [[extra turn]]—albeit an extra turn where you draw fewer cards. This is good if you have a way to guarantee that this extra turn is still pretty good even with only three cards, but weak if you end up having mediocre extra turns.

Outpost has received errata so that you can't take multiple extra turns in a row [https://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=21794.msg904370#msg904370]. Here are rulings that will change as a result.
 +
* If you play Outpost multiple times in one turn, you aren't able to take more than 2 turns in a row, so all Outposts after the first will fail.
 +
* If you play Outpost on an extra turn, you draw a 3-card hand, and then fail to get a 3rd turn.
 +
* If you set up multiple extra turns at once (e.g. one from Outpost, one from {{Event|Mission}}), you choose one turn to take, and the others fail.
 +
* If you are {{Card|Possession|Possessed}}, and they make you play Outpost, you draw a 3-card hand, take the Outpost turn, and then take your normal turn.

* Remember that the extra turn is completely normal (if it happens); it is the turn in which you play Outpost which is different, in that you only draw three cards during cleanup.
 
−
** This makes Outpost an exception to the basic rule that Duration cards are discarded from play during the Clean-up phase of the last turn on which they "do something"; Outpost doesn't do anything ''on'' the extra turn it creates, but it is not cleaned up until the end of the extra turn regardless.
 
−
* Interactions with {{Card|Possession}} are difficult:  remember that when your opponent Possesses you, he makes you take an extra turn, and makes all decisions for you.
 
−
** So, if your opponent plays a Possession, then makes you play an Outpost during that Possessed turn, they will get to see the three cards you draw; then you will take your 3-card Outpost extra turn, since that will only be your second turn in a row; and then you will take your regular turn.
 
−
** If your opponent plays two Possessions, you take two extra turns from them.  If your opponent then makes you play an Outpost on the second Possessed turn, nothing happens, as the "previous turn wasn't yours" condition is not met, and Outpost will be discarded at the end of that turn.
 
−
** If your opponent plays two (or more) Possessions and makes you play an Outpost during the first Possessed turn, you decide when to take the extra turn from Outpost, since this decision takes place between turns; you can take an extra turn with only 3 cards after the first Possessed turn, or you can choose to have the second Possessed turn happen first (with a 3 card hand), in which case you will take your Outpost turn (with a full 5 card hand) after that (or after any other Possessed turns you allow to happen in the meantime).
 
−
* Playing {{Card|Throne Room}} (or [[Throne Room variant|similar cards]]) on Outpost would seem to do nothing, but the Throne Room will still have to stay out with the Outpost as long as it does. 
 
−
* Playing any Outposts beyond the first one on a turn does nothing, and extra Outposts will be discarded from play before you take your extra turn.
 
−
* If you buy {{event|Mission}} on the same turn you play Outpost, you can choose whether the Mission turn or the Outpost turn happens first; whichever one does will start with a 3 card hand, while the other will start with a 5 card hand.
 
−
* An {{Card|Estate}} {{Event|Inheritance|Inherited}} as an Outpost will never do anything.

This is because, while you are discarding cards from play during the turn on which you play it, the Outpost still has "something to do" (i.e., making you draw only three cards instead of five).

* Playing {{Card|Throne Room}} (or [[Throne Room variant|similar cards]]) on Outpost will only give 1 extra turn, but the Throne Room will still have to stay out with the Outpost as long as it does.

* If an Outpost turn fails (e.g. due to {{Card|Lich}}), you discard the Outpost during the next Clean-up that happens (either yours or another player's).
 +

When you draw your hand during that turn's Clean-up, you'll only draw 3 cards.

** If they played their own Outpost on the turn that you did this, they'll take their extra turn before you get your extra turn. And if you play another Outpost during their extra turn, you'll take a 2nd extra turn.

Outpost is a card that can be quite bad in some circumstances, but that combos with quite a few cards, and can be dominating with the right support.  Outpost depends on some way of guaranteeing that the extra 3-card turn will be good.  In a [[Big Money]] type deck, or a rush strategies like {{Card|Gardens}} or {{Card|Duke}}/{{Card|Duchy}}, the 3-card turn is likely to be quite poor, and the {{Cost|5}} spent on Outpost is probably better spent on any number of other terminal actions, possibly even cheaper cards like {{Card|Smithy}}.
+
== Strategy ==
 +
Outpost is generally a very powerful card when the [[Kingdom]] offers an [[engine]] that’s strong enough to allow you to play it consistently and achieve as much on each extra turn as you can on your main turns; this is comparable to doubling your deck's [[payload]] (including the 1 Buy you start all turns with). However, if your deck is such that the three-card starting hand makes your Outpost turns mostly very weak, it's unlikely to be worthwhile unless you can put these turns to some specific use in improving your next main turn.
  
−
[[Duration]] cards can give you a modest next-turn bonus, both in terms of [[virtual coin]] ({{Card|Lighthouse}}, {{Card|Merchant Ship}}, {{Card|Fishing Village}}) or card draw ({{Card|Wharf}}, {{Card|Caravan}}) to ensure that your Outpost turn is better than a typical 3-card turn. [[Seaside]] also has other ways of setting up your Outpost turn like {{Card|Native Village}} or {{Card|Treasury}}. Cantrips that provide virtual coin, such as {{Card|Peddler}} or {{Card|Market}} can work well with Outpost, but Treasury is stronger because it is reliable.  These methods, however, are still not using outpost's full potential.  Outpost can sometimes be harmful when used with durations--if you miss a key price point on your Outpost turn, the durations will end on that turn rather than carrying through into your next 5-card turn.
+
Outpost is highly valuable when you've [[thinning|thinned]] your deck thoroughly and built a reliable engine so that you stand a good chance of drawing your deck even when starting from a smaller hand. Gaining Outpost before achieving [[deck control]], or in a Kingdom that doesn't offer it at all, is less likely to pay off. Outpost is better still if there's a way to further increase your chances of a full Outpost turn, such as [[duration draw]] (e.g. {{Card|Wharf}}), topdecking of draw cards (e.g. with {{Card|Supplies}}), or [[draw-to-x]] (e.g. {{Card|Hunting Lodge}}). {{Card|Guide}} is also a reliable way to draw a new five-card hand at the start of each Outpost turn.
  
−
[[Engine|Engines]] that are able to draw their deck every turn, even starting from a 3-card hand, make Outpost turns just as valuable as a regular turn. Draw-up-to-X engines, like those based on {{Card|Library}} or {{Card|Watchtower}} also make the turn as good as a typical turn, so long as one is able to draw both a village and drawing card.  {{Card|Minion}} decks also work well with Outpost: so long as at least one Minion is drawn, the second turn is about as good as any other.
+
Once all players are using Outpost consistently and effectively, the net outcome is to change how the turns are ordered, with everyone getting two turns at a time. This has a strong impact on endgame considerations: when deciding when to begin [[greening]], how much you need to score on a particular turn, or whether it's safe to lower the [[Supply]] piles, you must account for the fact that more turns than usual will take place before your next one. Since you can also use two turns to close out the game, Outpost can occasionally produce risky endgame plays in which (for example) you lower the piles significantly on the assumption that you'll be able to win on your Outpost turn, but you leave your opponent an easy victory if that turn is a [[dud]].
  
−
{{Card|Scheme}} is a very good card to include in decks with Outpost, as it can guarantee certain cards to end up in the Outpost hand.  This can help ensure deck drawing by top-decking a village and/or card drawer.  {{Card|Haven}} is another good option to send a card to the Outpost turn; although it does not allow one to play the sent card this turn, it increases the hand size for the next turn.  Haven can smooth out engines using Outpost, but because it reduces the handsize by one on the current turn, too many of them can harm some decks.
+
The asymmetry between a player using Outpost effectively and one who’s not using it is unusually great, especially since only one copy of the card is needed to access its full power. This means that a slow engine is somewhat more likely to be worth building in the presence of Outpost, and it can be a game-winning purchase from the {{Card|Black Market}}.  
  
−
Outpost goes nicely with cards that gain [[Coin tokens|coin tokens]]. It's much better to sock away two coin tokens during an Outpost turn than to have {{Cost|2}} to spend, and of course you can spend your coin tokens during your Outpost turn as well if you need a little help to pay for a card you want to buy.
+
Outpost’s interaction with Duration cards brings certain trade-offs. In addition to the boost provided by Duration draw, you also need only half as many copies as usual of any Duration card that you want to keep in play during your opponents’ turns, e.g. {{Card|Swamp Hag}} or {{Card|Guardian}}, as you can play them on your Outpost turn and discard them from play at the end of your main turn. However, this has to be managed carefully and means any start-of-turn benefit can only be reaped on your main turns.
  
−
Outpost is usually a poor first purchase of a {{Cost|5}} cost-card; early in the game the Outpost turn is likely to be very weak, and the early purchase of this card can slow down a deck.  In most decks, only buying one Outpost is necessary.  Engines that reliably draw the whole deck cannot benefit from a second outpost, and most decks where one might be tempted to buy two Outposts would be unlikely to benefit enough from the outpost to begin with to make it worth the [[opportunity cost]].
+
It is also worth noting that if you play a {{Card|Possession|oi=2}}<sup>†</sup>, your opponent will not get an additional turn by playing Outpost on their next turn.
−
 
+
−
Outpost works very well with an active {{Card|Prince}}. You get the Princed Action at the start of your Outpost turn. If the Princed card is something powerful like {{Card|Smithy}} or {{Card|Remodel}}, it can render the reduced hand size almost irrelevant. (Like all Durations, Outpost itself does not work with Prince even if you reduce its cost to allow Prince to set it aside.)

Card text
You only draw 3 cards for your next hand. Take an extra turn after this one (but not a 3rd turn in a row).

Outpost is an Action-Duration card from Seaside. When played, it lets you take an extra turn—albeit an extra turn where you draw fewer cards.

Contents

[edit] FAQ

[edit] Errata

Outpost has received errata so that you can't take multiple extra turns in a row [1]. Here are rulings that will change as a result.

  • If you play Outpost multiple times in one turn, you aren't able to take more than 2 turns in a row, so all Outposts after the first will fail.
  • If you play Outpost on an extra turn, you draw a 3-card hand, and then fail to get a 3rd turn.
  • If you set up multiple extra turns at once (e.g. one from Outpost, one from MissionMission.jpg), you choose one turn to take, and the others fail.
  • If you are PossessedPossession.jpg, and they make you play Outpost, you draw a 3-card hand, take the Outpost turn, and then take your normal turn.

[edit] Official FAQ (2022)

  • Outpost only does anything the first time you play it in a turn, and only if the previous turn was another player's (meaning, you are not already taking an extra turn).
  • If these conditions are met, you take an extra turn, and only draw 3 cards for your next hand rather than 5 (thus usually only having 3 cards in hand on the extra turn).
  • Except for the smaller starting hand, the extra turn is a normal turn.
  • If you play e.g. Merchant ShipMerchant Ship.jpg in the same turn as Outpost, the extra turn will be when you get the +$2 from Merchant Ship.
  • Extra turns do not count towards the tiebreaker of which tied player had fewer turns.

[edit] Other rules clarifications

  • Remember that the extra turn is completely normal (if it happens); it is the turn in which you play Outpost which is different, in that you only draw three cards during Clean-up.
    • This makes Outpost arguably an exception to the basic rule that Duration cards are discarded from play during the Clean-up phase of the last turn on which they "do something"; Outpost doesn't do anything on the extra turn it creates other than cause it to happen, but it is not cleaned up until the end of the extra turn regardless. This is because, while you are discarding cards from play during the turn on which you play it, the Outpost still has "something to do" (i.e., making you draw only three cards instead of five).
  • Playing Throne RoomThrone Room.jpg (or similar cards) on Outpost will only give 1 extra turn, but the Throne Room will still have to stay out with the Outpost as long as it does.
  • If an Outpost turn fails (e.g. due to LichLich.jpg), you discard the Outpost during the next Clean-up that happens (either yours or another player's).
  • If you gain a GondolaGondola.jpg during another player's turn (e.g. from their BarbarianBarbarian.jpg attack) and play an Outpost, you'll take an extra turn after that player's turn (assuming it won't be your 3rd turn in a row), with your current hand. When you draw your hand during that turn's Clean-up, you'll only draw 3 cards.
    • If they played their own Outpost on the turn that you did this, they'll take their extra turn before you get your extra turn. And if you play another Outpost during their extra turn, you'll take a 2nd extra turn.

[edit] Strategy

Outpost is generally a very powerful card when the Kingdom offers an engine that’s strong enough to allow you to play it consistently and achieve as much on each extra turn as you can on your main turns; this is comparable to doubling your deck's payload (including the 1 Buy you start all turns with). However, if your deck is such that the three-card starting hand makes your Outpost turns mostly very weak, it's unlikely to be worthwhile unless you can put these turns to some specific use in improving your next main turn.

Outpost is highly valuable when you've thinned your deck thoroughly and built a reliable engine so that you stand a good chance of drawing your deck even when starting from a smaller hand. Gaining Outpost before achieving deck control, or in a Kingdom that doesn't offer it at all, is less likely to pay off. Outpost is better still if there's a way to further increase your chances of a full Outpost turn, such as duration draw (e.g. WharfWharf.jpg), topdecking of draw cards (e.g. with SuppliesSupplies.jpg), or draw-to-x (e.g. Hunting LodgeHunting Lodge.jpg). GuideGuide.jpg is also a reliable way to draw a new five-card hand at the start of each Outpost turn.

Once all players are using Outpost consistently and effectively, the net outcome is to change how the turns are ordered, with everyone getting two turns at a time. This has a strong impact on endgame considerations: when deciding when to begin greening, how much you need to score on a particular turn, or whether it's safe to lower the Supply piles, you must account for the fact that more turns than usual will take place before your next one. Since you can also use two turns to close out the game, Outpost can occasionally produce risky endgame plays in which (for example) you lower the piles significantly on the assumption that you'll be able to win on your Outpost turn, but you leave your opponent an easy victory if that turn is a dud.

The asymmetry between a player using Outpost effectively and one who’s not using it is unusually great, especially since only one copy of the card is needed to access its full power. This means that a slow engine is somewhat more likely to be worth building in the presence of Outpost, and it can be a game-winning purchase from the Black MarketBlack Market.jpg.

Outpost’s interaction with Duration cards brings certain trade-offs. In addition to the boost provided by Duration draw, you also need only half as many copies as usual of any Duration card that you want to keep in play during your opponents’ turns, e.g. Swamp HagSwamp Hag.jpg or GuardianGuardian.jpg, as you can play them on your Outpost turn and discard them from play at the end of your main turn. However, this has to be managed carefully and means any start-of-turn benefit can only be reaped on your main turns.

It is also worth noting that if you play a PossessionPossessionOld2.jpg†, your opponent will not get an additional turn by playing Outpost on their next turn.

[edit] Trivia

Official card art.

[edit] Secret History

This underwent a bunch of changes to the text, while keeping the functionality fairly close. The issues were 1) it had to not be too confusing; 2) it couldn't let you get infinite turns; 3) in fact even 3-4 turns in a row is no good; 4) it had to have clear and fair interactions with Throne Room and Tactician. Throne Room was tricky. There was an evening where I spent a few hours discussing possible wordings with Chris West, and at one point it was like, man, this is work. Those of you who think game design is all good times: sometimes you have to spend hours rewording Outpost. Anyway the best possible wording was to have you take a normal turn, but discard 2 cards at the start of it. That was just too powerful though. I tried not having an anti-recursion clause once and immediately got infinite turns with it. I also tried having you draw 2 fewer cards for each extra turn. In the end it got a brutal "This can't cause you to take more than 2 consecutive turns." That just guarantees no shenanigans.
—Donald X. Vaccarino, The Secret History of the Seaside Cards

[edit] Retrospective

Outpost could be simpler. Ideally it would have you discard 2 at the start of your next turn, rather than having the wonky Clean-up-modifying effect it has. There was not enough time between when I realized that and when the card had to be finalized.
—Donald X. Vaccarino, What Donald X. Might Do With a Dominion Time Machine
