At any time you may convert 1 Sheep to 2 Food, 1 Boar to 3 Food, or 1 Cattle to 3 Food. You may not convert anything else to Food except what the Hunter can. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

This one seems really powerful compared to meatseller and butcher. I'd remove the bonus point or lower the convert rate to 2/2/3. | Jul 19, 2010 1:24am [quote] (Edit: Jul 19, 2010 1:41am) |

not a real suggestion, just trying to make it more interesting which suit the name better, A successful hunter deserve 1 VP! lol |
the bonus point can only be receive if u put at least 1 sheep, 1 boar, and 1 cattle u slaughter in this way.Jul 19, 2010 2:04am [quote] |

I like the idea of a Hunter occupation though. Spit-balling some ideas: - maybe he must pay 1w each time he converts animals to food (he uses the wood to build a hunter's campfire). This could offset the fact that the conversion rate is the same as a CH - and/or maybe a player must have one or more of these as a prerequisite: Private Forest, Wildlife Preserve, Spinney, Forest Pasture (a place for hunting) - and/or maybe the player doesn't have to have one of those prerequisites, but one must be in play and he must pay one food to a player who does have one of those each time he converts animals to food? Just some ideas. |
Isn't this the Occ equivalent of a CH, at far less the cost both in terms of material, and with the added benefit of a played Occupation? The prohibition of cooking improvements isn't really a cost or "con" since with a CH you don't need another cooking improvement anyway.Jul 19, 2010 2:42am [quote] (Edit: Jul 19, 2010 2:44am) |

Having the converting rate of a hearth is too good, and the idea is not new. The Butcher(I247) does the same thing using the converting rate of a simple fireplace. |
I agree.Jul 19, 2010 1:56pm [quote] |

If the card is too strong, there are ways to weaken it, including removing the VP and/or reducing the conversion rate. Also I could make it occ4+ where animals are harder to get. |
The new idea is that you cannot bake bread or convert building resources to food. You are committing to only eating animals and raw food.Jul 19, 2010 4:59pm [quote] (Edit: Jul 19, 2010 5:02pm) |

i'm not sure this should prevent you from buying and using the joinery, pottery, or bmw and lets get a better picture for my namesake. c'mon. lol. |
yes but the Butcher as no limitations re: other cooking improvements. you can still get an oven. the Hunter keeps you very one dimensional, and while the conversion rate for animals is as good as a CH, you can not bake or convert veggies as you can with a CH. Perhaps you 1 bonus point could be removed.Jul 19, 2010 5:14pm [quote] |

I removed the 1 VP and I lowered the exchange rate. |
I clarified the text so that it is clear that you may not convert anything to food except what the Hunter converts.Jul 20, 2010 8:45am [quote] |

i now think it is too weak. why can't i build the well? imo, the prior version was better. | Jul 20, 2010 9:26am [quote] |

OK, i removed the restriction of not being able to build Major Improvements. | Jul 20, 2010 10:06am [quote] |
