Plantation

Farm

Your Stronghold produces one more Gold, to a maximum of five, when paying for a non-Personality card.

Bow this card: Produce 2 Gold

I think Lion has too many 7G personalities to not run as many as 3G producers we could.
I dont know what to think about this...it seems like a good holding for the "ashigaru deck", but then again the bonus is for non-personalities, and all the ashigaru followers are cheap enough. It may find it's way into heavy attachments deck, or decks that really want 4GC holdings (like rugashi)

This allows us to more to use 4g holdings. Not really sold on it for the lion.
Makes that mantis stronghold nasty.

Not really. You can't guarantee seeing it first turn, so any 4g holding has to be viewed as occupying a Personality slot, or a Region/Event/Celestial slot, rather than a Holding slot.

What it does do for Lion is open up 4g attachments - and the lack of gold production for attachments is why this won't be played in Kalani's Landing.

I agree with the statement that it allows more flexibility for 4G attachments in Lion, but I disagree that it won't see play out of Kalani's Landing. Yes, it will not help Kalani's in terms of getting attachments out, but one of these out on the Kalani's Landing player's side turns KL into 5 Gold every single phase. KL can thereafter be used to supply 5G for Strategies and other actions during both the Action and Battle phase, be used to put in 5 Gold to purchase a Personality (or Holding) during the Dynasty phase, and be available to put in 5G for controly actions during the opponent's turn, during each of his phases. That's HUGE.

It doesn't let the box produce more for personalities. For KL, this doesn't do very much. There are 4G strategies, but I can't name any 5G strategies that this makes or breaks for them. For Lion, it gives the potential for access to 4G holdings. However, it's unreliable, and that is a very major problem. In no way, shape, or form, should this push Copper Mines out of Lion decks.
