| − | '''Way of the Turtle''' is a [[Way]] from {{Set|Menagerie}}. It lets an [[Action]] [[card]] save itself to be played at the start of your next turn. Repeatedly playing an Action using the Way of the Turtle lets you save it for multiple turns. | + | '''Way of the Turtle''' is a [[Way]] from [[Menagerie (expansion)|Menagerie]] which allows you to set aside an [[Action]] card for your next turn. This can allow you to keep a card set aside until you need it, by simply using the Way each turn |

| − | * When you play the card at the start of your next turn, you can again use Way of the Turtle, delaying it another turn. You can keep doing this.
| |
| − | * Playing the card next turn does not use up an Action then.
| |
| − | * If you use a card like {{Card|Throne Room}} to play a card twice, and then use Way of the Turtle, this does not cause the Throne Room to be set aside, or to stay in play as with [[Duration]] cards.
| |
| − | === Other rules clarifications ===
| |
| − | * If you use a card like Throne Room to play a card twice, and choose Way of the Turtle both times, you still only get one play at the start of your next turn, as you were not able to set it aside the second time.
| |
| − | * If you use Way of the Turtle on a [[Reserve]] card that can be called at the start of your turn (like {{Card|Transmogrify}}), you can play it at the start of your turn, put it on your Tavern mat, and then immediately call it (because it's still the start of your turn).
| |
| − | * If you use {{Card|Throne Room}} on a [[Duration]] card, play it once normally and then play it using Way of the Turtle, the Throne Room will leave play, and you will have to remember the Duration card's effects next turn.

| − | You can [[Throne Room variant|Throne]] an Action card and play it one of the times using Way of the Turtle, to play the Action once this turn and again at the start of the next turn. If the Throne is {{Card|Procession}}, in addition to playing the Action both turns, you don't trash it, since it gets set aside and [[Stop-Moving rule|stops moving]], and you still gain an Action costing exactly {{Cost|1}} more than it. You can play actions that are no longer useful (e.g. {{Card|Moneylender}}) using Way of the Turtle, play them using Way of the Turtle at the start of the next turn, and repeat the loop for the rest of the game, effectively removing actions from your deck without trashing them. This can also be done with cards that have an [[Adventures_tokens#Vanilla_bonus_tokens|Adventures Vanilla Bonus Token]] to automatically receive the bonus at the start of each turn.

| − | |Text=Way of the Turtle is a trickier one. It lets you play any card to set itself aside and replay it next turn. Way of the Turtle says "this" on it, but that's the card you played, it's not Way of the Turtle itself. You don't want your {{Card|Moneylender}} this turn, so you Turtle it, and play it at the start of your next turn. I hear you asking, but wait, when you play it next turn, can't you just use Way of the Turtle again to save it for the turn after that? Yes, of course you can. If you want, it can be Turtles all the way down. | + | |Text=Way of the Turtle is a trickier one. It lets you play any card to set itself aside and replay it next turn.
