'''Augur''' is a [[type]] of [[Kingdom card]] from the [[Allies]] expansion. There are 4 copies each of 4 differently-named Augurs with a single [[randomizer]] card, forming a [[split pile]]: when Augurs are selected as a [[Kingdom]] card for a game, they are put into a single [[Supply]] pile in order by increasing [[cost]], of which only the top card can be gained at any given time. The cheapest of the four allows you to "[[rotate]]" the pile—move all copies of the current top card to the bottom of the pile, revealing the next card in the sequence.

|Text=Split piles are back! Only this time they rotate. Also they have four different cards in them. Let's see one to better talk about this. It's: Augurs.<br>So the pile starts with 4 copies of Herb Gatherer, then 4 copies of Acolyte, then 4 copies of Sorceress, then 4 copies of Sibyl. And you can only buy/gain the top card. But, the first card lets you "rotate" the pile. This puts all copies of whatever's on top onto the bottom. If the top has three Herb Gatherers and then Acolytes etc., rotating it puts all three Herb Gatherers on the bottom. If it was just one Herb Gatherer and then Acolytes, that one Herb Gatherer goes on the bottom. If the pile has different cards left in it, then rotating it will uncover a different one. It gets you through the pile.
 
+
So the pile starts with 4 copies of {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Acolyte}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Sorceress}}, then 4 copies of {{Card|Sibyl}}. And you can only buy/gain the top card. But, the first card lets you "rotate" the pile. This puts all copies of whatever's on top onto the bottom. If the top has three {{Card|Herb Gatherer|Herb Gatherers}} and then {{Card|Acolyte|Acolytes}} etc., rotating it puts all three {{Card|Herb Gatherer|Herb Gatherers}} on the bottom. If it was just one {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} and then {{Card|Acolyte|Acolytes}}, that one {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} goes on the bottom. If the pile has different cards left in it, then rotating it will uncover a different one. It gets you through the pile.
+
 
+
So {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}, it does this rotation trick, and {{Card|Chancellor|Chancellors}} (what's that?), and also it gets a Treasure from your discard pile into play. {{Card|Acolyte}} can turn stuff into {{Card|Gold}}, but also can turn itself into whatever's on top of the Augurs pile - another {{Card|Acolyte}}, or a better card (or hey, sometimes an {{Card|Herb Gatherer}}). {{Card|Sorceress}} is a guessing game, and if you're right you {{Card|Curse}} the other players. And {{Card|Sibyl}} lets you win that guessing game.

|Text=The first split pile. It sold the concept; the pile was fun. {{Card|Herb Gatherer}} was very briefly a choose-two. {{Card|Acolyte}} was briefly a {{Card|Lookout}} variant where you draw the cards, ala an Adventures outtake; then for a long time it was the final card but with the upgrading removed, when I removed it everywhere else. {{Card|Sorceress}} had its wording messed with but stayed basically the same. There was a big choose-two where {{Card|Sibyl}} is, but it almost immediately became the final Sibyl.
