FAQ

Official FAQ

  • First reveal a card from your hand, then count the types.
  • The types are the words on the bottom line – including Action, Attack, Curse, Reaction, Treasure, and Victory (with more in expansions).
  • Then choose one different thing per type the card had; if you revealed a card with two types, you pick two things.
  • For example you could reveal a Copper and choose "gain a Gold," or reveal a Mill and choose "+1 Action" and "+$3."
  • If you gain a Gold, put the Gold into your discard pile.

Other Rules clarifications

  • If you play Courtier and have no cards in hand, you get no bonus.

Secret History

I wanted yet another card that was good with Nobles / Harem / Mill. Counting types was a way to trigger off of those cards, but would also work with Attacks, Reactions, Durations, and other things. In a few cases you can get to three, and one card takes you to four (Dame Josephine). To stop it from going crazy when it gets to three, there are two strong options and two weaker ones. All four get used though.
