Bug with Remake

Previous topic - Next topic

DuckStorm

In my recent game, Remake worked most of the time, but one time instead of allowing me to Remake a Catacombs (value 5) into a card with exactly 1 more (Gold) it insisted I remake it into a card costing up to four.  My opponent granted an undo so I could see if it was a one-time glitch, and it still happened.  It even happened after I refreshed my browser.  Screenshot attached.  Eventually I continued the game without playing Remake that turn.  It was game "#163252773".

Catacombs has a 'when trashed' ability below a dividing line:

Look .... +3 Cards.
--------------------
When you trash this, gain a cheaper card.

This ability to gain a card cheaper than $5 when you trash Catacombs with Remake is in addition to the effect of Remake. Timing rules say you do the Catacombs effect first, and that's what you saw. You would have been given the Gold afterwards (or a choice if there were multiple $6 cards).

This kind of "When you trash this, do ..." effect is on some Dark Ages card (also Squire and Cultist), it was a mini theme of the set. It throws people off sometimes, since it doesn't come into effect often. The on-screen description would benefit from a special note added that it comes from Catacombs.
