Collectible Card Game Headquarters

I found an odd bug with spy. It requires a misplay in a very unique circumstance, but still seems to be a bug.

If you have no deck and no discard pile, ie all cards in play or in hand, and you play spy, it will treat the most recently drawn card in your hand as your draw with the choice to discard or put on top of your deck.

Mine does not add the selected treasure card to your hand, but instead discards.
Chapel will allow you to trash more than 4 cards.

Scout will only reveal the remaining cards if there are less than 4, it won't reshuffle. When there's no card left, it reveals none etc.

With Ambassador you can't reveal a card without putting at least one back to the supply.

Also, not sure if anyone else has this, or that I am extremely unlucky, but Gardens never seem to be included in random setups.

Why would you want to do this?

Let's say you have lots of gardens in your deck, you reveal a curse with the ambassador so the others get one, but you want to keep yours because it's the 40th card of your deck...

That's what I was thinking. There's about 1/5000 chance you'd want to, where the other 4999 times you're just doing an extra click. So enjoy your clicking, suckers...

I think there is a bug in scenario 2.4 which makes it impossible to complete. It does not seem to count the last
card-type. And you can't see which cards are under the native village if the
native village is not one of the available kingdom cards. The following patch
should fix both problems. I can't test it myself, because I have no
VB6-compiler.

Also the wording of the goal can be misleading, because the supply usually
includes all available cards, including victory and treasure cards. You could
write "Gather 1 of every available kingdom card under a Native Village".

The same thing happens if you hide a card with the native village and your deck and discard pile are empty. This patch should fix it for spy and native village:

Nice catches, thanks.

Phew.....I've been trying to crack this challenge for a day or so but all I've got is a sore head

thanks!

Umm... April Fools?

I'm not sure if it's a bug, but in the version of April 1st in the scenario 3.3 the other players buy only gold and the game ends when all gold has been bought. That makes it very easy to win once you figure that out. But when nobles are available they only buy them and the game ends when all nobles have been bought.

It's intentional that the game ends when 1 pile is gone. When I was playing it, the opponents normally went for Gold, and then eventually Duchy.

I actually used the Ambassador not to return any cards today. If I give the AI's a Treasure Map each, they won't get rid of it and they won't buy another one - it's a dead card for them. Not that they'd ever buy it anyway... maybe you'd want to change this.
