Trivia
This card was designed together with Captain on request by ASS to commemorate the victors of the "Jubiläumsmeisterschaft" (jubilee championship), organized 2018 in Germany and Austria to celebrate ten years of Dominion. The church shown in the art is Schwerin Cathedral. It represents Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the winner of a 12-month competition taking place 2018.
Secret History
Church was an early card in Nocturne. That version set aside up to 2 cards, and trashed up to 2 cards. We enjoyed it, but it was too powerful, and also there was a lot of competition for trashing in Nocturne. Other cards made it in instead. So then we needed a promo for a tournament Altenburger was running, that would have a winning province of Germany. What landmark, that there would be lots of in Germany, would be recognizable from medieval times? Hey, how about a church? That suggested a trasher, and I remembered this card. Changing the numbers to 3 set aside and 1 trashed fixed up the power level while also shifting the focus of the card. Now it's this way you can set up a turn, and hey it's also a trasher. Altenburger had people vote on which church, after a province won, and they picked Schwerin Cathedral. The German version of the card is called Schweriner Dom. This particular church changed a lot since medieval times - they built that tower. The art shows it as it exists today, not as it did then, because it makes it the recognizable thing and no-one minds that kind of anachronism, no-one I say.
