In case you haven't noticed, this guy does not have an ally slot symbol printed on him. Which makes him really great in my opinion. Yeah he is expensive, but you can pair him with other allies without needing charisma

The more I use this card the more I make a mental note to include it in more decks, it just is incapable of under-performing, it has so many forms.

• "when you would draw a card discard this card to gain 2 resources" well that's just a better* cryptic writings.
• "when you need money, also draw a card" cards are good, so very very good.
• "need neither, no problem, int tests are done every turn in every game ever, and agility tests aren't exactly rare either" the dead draw of emergency *I don't want any more* cache is real.
• "Got that really annoying 1 XP and/or some cards you put in for the first level of the campaign" well myriad solves both these issues amazingly.

and my most recent damn moment.

"you need tons of commits and have a crystalizer of dreams in play already?" well how about this icon and the top card of your deck, with all the other bonuses you get from playing it.

O yea and there a line of text about being able to play it three times in a row or something, that's cool too I guess, but given you can play it fast with chuck who even needs that?

Considering running this in Winifred, but what I'm often finding is that

a) With her natural card advantage I am cycling through the deck often enough that I see my lvl0 Pilfers often enough

b) Even in 3-player the volume of clues the lvl0 can pick up is so great that I rarely need to play Pilfer multiple times in a row, even if I could afford it with Chuck Fergus

Overall, I think my XP is better spent on the other cards with the same upgrade effect - Cheap Shot, Slip Away, and Backstab

Q: If activating a Chicago Typewriter costs an additional action (for example, due to Frozen in Fear), does that additional action give the attack +2 combat?

A: Yes, any and all actions spent to activate the fight ability on Chicago Typewriter count for its bonus, regardless of whether those additional actions are spent from its ability, or from some other condition (like Frozen in Fear). Hope that helps! Cheers, MJ Newman

Duke tilts his head to the side.

Duke is worried.

Duke is confused.

Duke doesn’t understand why Ashcan is suddenly feeding all of Duke’s once-a-round doggie treats to this sailor-guy.

Is... is Duke not a Good Boy?
