Secret History
Emporium started out as a village you could trash for + based on how many Action cards you had in play. I tried a few sizes. I liked that whole idea of cashing in cards for , but you don't so much want to do it until your last turn of the game, which is not great, and making it fair when it's good can mean making it weak most of the time. I fixed up the concept by making it a threshold; you either get or don't, and can't get more with more Actions. Patrician is a combo with it both ways (finds it, helps reach the threshold), which is cute. The threshold was 6 Actions for a while; one day Matt said, why not 5.
