Secret History
For a while there was a different Workshop: Gain a card costing up to , get +1 per empty pile. It seemed reasonable and then I had one too many games that were dominated by it. I tried a lot of replacements, man, like ten other cards, mostly very briefly. Engineer stood out. However it had the issue of being able to trash it to gain something plus another Engineer, to run out the pile. Dame Josephine suggested having it cost , which fixed that problem while taking no space on the card.
