Scout + Action/Victory Cards


Most players tend to glance over the Scout card at first not realizing how powerful it can actually be.  Because Intrigue has introduced the concept of Action/Victory cards (eg. Harem, Nobles, Great Hall), when you play your Scout you can place these cards into your hand right away.  This can be incredibly powerful in turning a bad hand into a really good hand!

Scout

Description: +1 Action.  Reveal the top 4 cards of your deck.  Put the revealed Victory cards into your hand.  Put the other cards on top of your deck in any order.
Type: Action
Cost: 4
Set: Intrigue

You might have been like me the first time I saw this card.  "Okay...so I basically get to make sure my next hand doesn't have victory cards in it.  Is that really that helpful?"  That was until I clued in on the fact that there are Action/Victory cards =)
