Below are some basic comments about Taxman. For a more comprehensive article, see this [http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=9481.0 forum thread].
+
Taxman is typically a very slow way to improve your [[payload]] and offers a relatively weak [[Attack]]. Given that it is also [[terminal]], reduces your hand size and often provides no benefit on the turn it is played, it is often skippable. Although Taxman allows you to trash [[Treasure]]s, it almost always requires you to replace them with another [[stop card]], so it generally can't be used to [[thinning|thin]] your deck. While upgrading Treasures can be beneficial, doing so is generally inferior to thinning your starting {{Card|Copper|Coppers}}, establishing [[deck control]], and adding payload by other means. The fact that Taxman [[topdeck]]s the gained Treasure is doubly detrimental from this perspective: not only does it mean that it decreases rather than increases your purchasing power on the current turn, it also slows down your [[cycling]] and reduces the chance that you'll find [[deck control]] cards in your next starting hand. These downsides can be avoided if you can use Taxman in a [[gain-and-play]] context, immediately drawing and playing the gained Treasure.
  
−
Taxman combines a discard attack with upgrading of treasure.  The trashing and upgrade is similar to {{Card|Mine}} but the top-decking is much slower than placing the treasure directly into the hand.  The attack is a little like a {{Card|Cutpurse}} that can keep its value slightly later into the game, but that is not cumulative.  As a card that conveys no benefit on the turn on which it is played, it tends to slow down the game.
+
While Taxman's attack can be impactful in the early game, hindering your opponent’s ability to hit price points, it generally becomes progressively worse in the later stages of the game, which sees a decrease in both the probability of hitting a Treasure and the impact of discarding a single Treasure.
  
−
The attack is highly situational; it can at most cause the discarding of one card. Early in the game, the attack is a sure hit as you use the card to trash coppers; later, switching to trashing silvers can provide a stronger attack against opponents who reliably draw silver, but the attack is weak against decks with less treasure. Drawing Taxman with Silver early in the game, like on the third turn, can produce an apparent conflict--the Silver attack is less likely to hit, but more devastating if it does, and upgrading the Silver is more valuable.
+
Occasionally, other effects allow Taxman to provide real thinning, substantially improving its appeal. For example, {{Project|Sewers}} lets you trash an extra card, enabling Taxman to replace two [[stop card]]s with a single, better one; turning {{Card|Copper}} into {{Card|Ducat}} and trashing an additional {{Card|Copper}} provides a comparable effect. Similar considerations apply when you can use Taxman to transform stop card Treasures into Treasures that have a neutral or positive effect on deck control, such as {{Card|Supplies}}.  
  
−
Because of the 5-card limitation on the attack, this card is much less devastating in multiplayer games than Cutpurse is.
+
In weak [[Kingdom]]s, Taxman can sometimes be helpful, if Treasure-based payload or particular Kingdom Treasures (e.g. {{Card|Crown}}) are appealing, sources of additional gains are lacking, and there isn’t a better use for your [[terminal space]]. Finally, Taxman's value may be slightly enhanced if you can get an extra benefit from trashing Treasures (such as with {{Landmark|Tomb}}) or from gaining them (such as with {{Project|Guildhall}}).

You may trash a Treasure from your hand. Each other player with 5 or more cards in hand discards a copy of it (or reveals they can't). Gain a Treasure onto your deck costing up to $3 more than it.

Taxman is an Action–Attack card from Guilds. It forces opponents to discard a copy of a Treasure that you trash, and then allows you to upgrade your trashed Treasure.

A weak and complicated Attack, Taxman was removed from the second edition of Guilds & CornucopiaGuilds & Cornucopia.jpg.

[edit] Secret History

This started in Cornucopia, based on an idea that didn't go far in Alchemy. For the Cornucopia version, the discarding was not limited to players with five+ cards in hand, and the treasure you gained didn't go on your deck. It was painful and not good enough. In Hinterlands I tried a version that gained you two cards. Finally it moved here and I fixed it up. It's a lot of words, that's like a theme of this set. It does a fine job of feeling like a new attack though, and well that's what that takes.
—Donald X. Vaccarino, The Secret History of the Guild Cards
