Site Cost 3 0 Influence. 0 gold bonus. Effect: players cannot launch Sites in this Region.
Is it me or is this card one of the less played card ever? I have 8 copies of it and 0 ideas. Maybe in a site-based deck to protect your influence from other sites... or maybe with Pietro Rossi for the fun of it.
Anyone managed to do something with it so far? Even something fun.

I play it in my forced influence deck. It site-rush, and i use it when i see that my opponent plays sites too. Good to cut him some regions. There is not much use for it, unless you are heavy on site boosters like pontifical high mass.
May be it could be used as a counter against heavy-site decks.

I have been toying with it, but it seems too specific, and vulnerable to site hate anyway. If I knew my opponent really liked big site decks, I'd play it.
I like arriatt's ideas, though.

There was a stage a while ago where all I faced was site decks. I had this in a crime deck with Antonio , I prefer Role reversal for now.

It kinda also makes sence in a combo with Pietro Rossi. You play it to make sure opponent won't get 3inf from Rossi later

The chances of rotting 2 out fast against a site deck are so slim that I'd rather play site destruction or role reversal or even shameless theatrics. Or easy come easy go. Capping a region for your opponent to not play a site... To gain 3 influence by destroying it later... Yeah, I dunno, makes sense but too long of a way around for me

This is by far the most useless card in the whole universe! Yes I am a bit frustrated!
I decided to include it in a deck with very strong agents and a lot of draw to keep my opponent from playing sites and what happens?!
This site is the biggest "PLAY A SITE NOW" ad I have ever seen. How frustrating to see you opponent play a site immediately after you have played the Palazzo della Signoria, knowing that you can't play any sites in this region anymore...
I wish I had a reverse Pick Your Poison to dump the site in your opponent's lap. Really, it's that bad!

Yeah, another flaw to add to the list.

Yeah it's like dropping a Roma and getting whacked by agents during its launch. Meh

I can really only see this to counter a Site Heavy Deck. I've played against a lot of site decks that surprisingly don't have counter/anti-site cards (probably because they assume they can just replace sites with theirs). All the really have is anti agent cards. It would be best to take advantage of said weakness.
