Newly implemented card(s)? A113 heresy teacher

Post by swolpoll »

I recently had "heresy teacher" (A113) in the draft, is this a newly implemented card? Probably not a top tier card. I am quite sure I have never seen it and I think I have seen quite all the cards by now. Are there other new cards that have recently been implemented?

Yes, Heresy Teacher has been newly implemented. It's the only card that was added, though. There are now two unimplemented cards from A-E decks:

Witches' Dance Floor is a problem on basically every level:
- The publisher has said the card text is wrong so we'd be making it up
- It's very fiddly to implement and would likely have unforeseen bugs
- It is a big maintenance problem for the codebase
- It's extremely confusing in how it works
- It's overpowered
- It has "gotcha" effects

Reed Seller is a problem just because it slows the game down a lot. All players have to make a decision every time the Reed Seller player wants to eat a reed. Very annoying in turn-based games in particular.

Heresy Teacher turned out to be doable kind of by luck: the way the code works out what your "grain fields" and "vegetable fields" still works with mixed veg+grain fields. So implementing it wasn't as bad as expected.
