We approve!

Very greatly appreciated. Some interesting stuff. And to top it all off, some very cool Baratheon cards. The new Stannis is rather impressive, it must be said.

Stannis says: "The King is dead. Long live the King!"
In other news, it looks like Targs are getting an attachment version of the Forever Burning event in Harried by Dragons. This version is not as self contained as the event, but it only has a one time investment of 1 gold and it thins your deck also. Slap down a Lady D's Chambers or take Griff as your only agenda and you're good to go. Never starve from a lack of influence for running some small amount of burn ever again.

Ah…spotted that edit for Volantis! You're very quick.

Incinerate is amazing its not even funny. Very hard to cancel and so destructive.

Yeah, the cost of 1 INF is actually a boon in these days of Paper Shield. At least in an INF rich (or starved depending your viewpoint) house like Targ.

Ruvion said:

You can only use the Response if you play it from your hand with gold. Ambush is a "put into play" effect.

Yup, thus why I said there is a one-time fee of 1 gold. After you get the two responses off, you are off to ambushing goodness. For which, of course, you may starve for INF, but in the meanwhile you pay the gold to search for the copies and/or stave off the INF use for a turn or two or three.

Little bit disappointed by Hugor Hill. I was hoping he would be a dual house Lann/Targ card. Still a decent card though.

That's a lot of learned crests for one pack. Maybe Outwit will see some more play?

Oooh new Stannis! As noted before, Incinerate is pretty awesome.

That Stannis… oh… my…

I'm disspointing with Ward, change character control is a Baratheon subtheme game in CGG, and now is changed to Stark.

@ Kaworu: But it is very weak character control, easily removed. It's like the Lannister attachement control released a few packs ago.

Baratheon got some awesome cards? WHAT IS THIS TRETCHERY?!

If Targ Burn wasn't the strongest joust deck already, it is now.

God **** i like the new Kevan agenda, along with the deadly martell attachment and the boost for targ burn

@ Rubinon: I am not sure that discarding the ward causes control to revert back to the ownerer. Attaching the ward gets you control, but there's nothing about the wording that requires the attachment to remain in play to keep control.

Overall I am not thrilled with these cards. I see more power creep (leap), than actual interesting new cards. Also giving a strong theme, in this case Targ Burn, more options does not really make the game play more interesting. I guess i'll see what the rest of the cycle has before final judgement.

Love ALL teh Baratehon cards - but especially new Stannis. finally a card worthy of the charatcer and a great closer for the House.

Willas Tyrell will be a must as well - and Bastard of Nigthsong will find a home in a couple of my decks. Thsi is some really good stuff.

That being said - i will probably be playing more Targaryen than Baratheon this Summer.

(3.26) Duration of Control Change
Note that attachments that grant control effects end when the attachment granting control leaves play.

Alando said:

What he and others said. Incenerate is pretty amazing.

Stannis is pretty hot as well. Combo's with his wife, brother, and KoF for some pretty crazy 1-turn power movements.

playgroundpsychotic said:

Thanks for finding that in the FAQ. Makes warded less than useful in a Targ deck, might as well finish the character off if they're already at 2 or less.

tofubones said:

Why would I finish a character off when I can just take him and his power?

playgroundpsychotic said:

With the way I play Targ anyone who's a threat to gain power does not last long. Also warded early game is not good as it's to easy for an opponent to get the character back, so it's a semi dead card until late game when you've either got your opponent locked down or as you said steal a character with enough power to win you the game. So it's a closer, but it feels to situational and/or fragile.

tofubones said:

So? Its an option that can do interesting things. Instead of looking it as "I can wreck stuff", you can now say "I can farm my opponent". I am thinking that all of these new burn cards don't necessarily make Targ overpowered but makes them fairly unpredictable instead.

Further, its also an option for Stark. They wreck you with Siege and then swipe a character from you in the process.
