Hey,
Here is one of the many different variations (of my gold toolbox) I'm playing right now with good results (which is good since the AH).
It's quite hard to play, let's face it. You have many choices to make, only a few counters and no recurtions of your own cards. Each choice is important.
5 Political Patronage
5 By Order of the King
5 Forced Inheritance
3 Tactical Upheaval
5 Familly Heirloom
3 Sudden Exhaustion
5 Preemptive Strikes
2 Condottiero Tactics
1 Teodor Viscardi
1 Dante Moro
1 Caterina Sforza
1 Skilled Minstrel (no crash so far, woot ^^)
1 Carlo Grimaldi
1 Frederico Auditore
1 Pantasilea Baglioni
1 Lorenzo de' Medici (can be replaced by Il Carnefice if you prefer)
2 Cesare Borgia
1 Lucrezia Borgia
3 Borgia Tower
3 Venezia, San Polo District
Playbook:
- The Gold Toolbox
You have 5 Heirlooms that will allow you to pick up solutions to whatever you have to deal with. Don't forget to pick Frederico as he can frequently kill 2 or 3 guys with Official/Threat/Imblocable before leaving the field. Pantalisela is just as awesome to deal against Millitants.
- The Noble Threatbox
You have 5 By Order of The King to pick up threats to play in your HQ. Some of them synergize together, some are just strong. Don't forget to pick Teodor if you are low on ressources at start. Lucrezia is awesome against Courtesans, Crime, Scholar dudes etc. Cesare is here to be incounterable and fast to intervene.
That's it. as you can see, it creates a lot of choice-making situations and again, with this kind of deck, you will make a lot of mistakes before being satisfied with the deck. Be sure to know what you will pick *BEFORE* resolving one of the tutors.
I hope you will like it.
