Eh... kinda like a dumbed-down version of Ships of Great Draught. 4 tokens is an awfully large amount, and all you get to do with that is place a card on top of your deck. I suppose it can be useful to retrieve something you need, but at that high of a cost it’s not so great especially since you run the risk of clogging your hand if your opponent doesn’t double-move.

This *could* be useful with cards that spot tokens or just needs them easily (no cards like this come to mind, but I don’t play Men). |

I’ll also give this one a 3. It’s a versatile card -- stack minions on it, stack tokens on it, fetch cards with the regroup ability. But I agree that it’s way overcosted, and the comparison with Ships of Great Draught is a little disappointing. |

Costs way to much and is a more diffcult to use ships of great draught. Wont see much use. |

Evil Men have a lot of ways to add tokens, so 3 from me even if it is a bit overcosted! |

Heck, it’s not Ships of Great Draught, but it’s not that bad, either. Caravan from the south and Corsair Grappling Hook both work well with it, and culture seems stronger than so if this was much stronger, it would be broken. |

Excellent point there. I’m going with a cautious 4 here, especially since now it’s a way to recycle key minions, possessions, events for . Corsair Grappling Hook just got much more powerful. Now you can fetch it again and again! |
