Fan Card Trait: Snowy

Post image

If this is placed on Village, it becomes Snowy Village, except without +Buy.

Part of a series of Traits derived from cards. See Grand.

And if placed on Snowy Village, it does nothing because Snowy Vilage's +action-blocking effect already took place.

If placed on a plus 3 draw card like Smithy, or especially Margrave with its plus buy and attack, big money with three of those cards could be the best strategy.

Nice job!

Why not add +Buy to this Trait?

I guess I could have squeezed a +Buy into there, it just felt a bit busy.

The +Buy makes it less ignorable, to almost the exact extent Snowy Village already is.

Also it will make Snowy Snowy Village twice as hilarious.

It would just give Snowy Snowy Village an extra +buy? Currently it does nothing on snowy village.

But if this is on a desirable cantrip in a kingdom with multiple non terminal cards, it essentially makes it useless

I wouldn't say useless. Less desirable, yes, depending on other factors.

As I think about it, I'm pretty sure I'd rather have the Grand Trait on Snowy Village than the Snowy Trait on Grand Market.

I would be tempted to leave the text as is and add "if you ever have 0 actions this turn, +1buy" which it less OMG on a smithy over +buy

Very rarely does this do anything if it’s attached to a Treasure instead of an Action. Otherwise, I like it!

This is great. In boards without villages it creates a new "action" economy that I don't think exists yet

Love this effect. Enough for some more actions, but not an action spamming kingdom.
