After playing this occupation you may immediately play a minor or major improvement. You may either reduce the required occupations to play it by 1, or pay 1 less building resource of your choice. [View playtest games] [View all dealt games] |

the main intention was a safety card when you want to play an improvement early but sp or major/minor improvement action is always occupied. the bonus for playing the improvement is makes it a bit better than using major/minor improvement action, and compensates for the cost to play an occupation. | May 24, 2011 3:35am [quote] (Edit: May 24, 2011 3:36am) |

I say reduce requirements by 2 or pay 2 less building resources. And change the name - it has nothing to do with home building. | May 24, 2011 2:16pm [quote] (Edit: May 24, 2011 2:16pm) |

Reducing the required occupations by 2 would be pretty dangerous: it would give you a fairly easy Round 2 Animal Pen or Quarry. | May 24, 2011 2:22pm [quote] |

In its current form, it is a weaker Academic, except you can chose to reduce the building resource cost. It definitely needs strengthening, but tacitcus is right: an early animal pen or quarry is dangerous. | May 24, 2011 3:52pm [quote] |

Quote from: slim on May 24, 2011 3:52pm In its current form, it is a weaker Academic this gives you a free (major or minor improvement) action. so don't lose an action when playing it. i never play academic, but i would use this quite often, and be it just to build the first fp in round 2. |

checking interesting in this card again, since a similar card has gotten good votes lately. | Jul 26, 2011 7:08am [quote] |

strong in the flexibility, but not overpowered in the effect. |
actually the stronger part is that it provide flexibility, you wont get blocked easily, or good to pump minor like bee hive, and also it allow animal steal.Jul 26, 2011 9:17am [quote] |

Once again I ask, why is this card called "Home constructor"? | Aug 2, 2011 4:05pm [quote] |

because he builds an improvement (at home). but i don't care for names. if you like a different name better i will gladly change it. | Aug 3, 2011 8:29am [quote] |
