You know how Settling the Homeless was an annoying card and you really didn't want to see it back?

Well its back, and better.  :roll:

I wouldn't say it is "better" than Homeless. This one requires an unbowed Castle to use, so you are either bowing a non-gold producing Fortifications or 2, 4, or 5 gold to pay for the send home.

Looking at it, the Limited could be nasty when combined with Basic Lesson's Open action.

Its not better than Settling across the board, but its almost certainly better in the deck that it would primarily be used in:  Carpenter Wall switch.

If you are willing to adapt your entire gold scheme to castles (9 or more of them), you will have the fortifications to use for this and the indomitables for 2 gold, so this card is not really expensive. The other bonus of it is that, in combination with siege volley (the new outer walls, just with a kill), you will be able to do a lot of unopposed defense in a Crane honor or dishonor deck, a thing that was not really possible until now (outside of Carpenter).
It might open up a new defensive concept for us, and more options are always good  :)

Thank goodness Crab is finally getting some support from DT. Here's hoping they address the issues Lion have been struggling with next.

Hehehe.

Oh well. We will abide, and all that.

I think it's a fun card, but 'Wow'.

I bow to you, Tetsuro, that made my day and it was like it was taken straight from my thoughts on it.

It may make the crappy Fortifications holding better, though, too.
