Secret History
The first version of this, from way back when, was the not-so-similar-looking '+1 card +1 action, you may play an attack or buy a Silver.' It was a village that only played attacks, or a +buy that only worked on Silver. When it turned out that I wouldn't be doing more cards that let you buy cards in the action phase, due to Black Market being confusing, I dropped buying Silvers (at that point 'buy a Treasure') and added, 'when trashed, gain an attack.' Now the card was just a blank cycler in games with no attacks. For a while I thought that was okay, but people sure complained about it. I made it, 'when trashed, gain an attack or silver,' but of course some games there's no way to trash it either
