Purchase the Musketeers Faction on Forgefire!

One for all, and all for one! Or three! Or really four, because there were four of them, but we’ll ignore that, just like the title of the book! The Musketeers were the super heroes of Renaissance France, taking on corrupt elements with style and panache. Their quick skills with the blade were matched only by their quick wit. After biding their time, they explode into a dazzling series of actions.

Musketeers are from the World Tour: International Incident set and do not have a Titan card.

Complexity Level: MEDIUM-HIGH
Mechanics
  • Chaining Extra Actions Together
  • Actions That Directly Affect Minions

The Musketeers excel at starting chains of actions, with a particular focus on actions that directly affect your own minions. Also, each time you do play an action that directly affects one of your minions, you can gain various benefits which can be either a power boost, a card draw, or even another action play.

Power 4 - Ongoing: Once on your turn, after you play an action that directly affects this minion, you may play an action that directly affects this minion as an extra action.

Errata: Yes, Wording

Clarifications:

  • This card can only trigger during the Play Cards phase of your turn. It cannot interact with Last Stand.
1x D'Artagnan
Illustrated by: Gong Studios

Power 2 - Ongoing: After you play an action that directly affects this minion, draw a card.

Errata? Yes/No

Clarifications:

  • Because of the Card Resolution Order (see The Phases of a Turn), after an action is played that affects D’Artagnan (step 1), D’Artagnan has you draw a card (step 3) before the action that affected it is discarded (step 5). Therefore among other things, there can be no infinite loop between D’Artagnan and Favor of Dionysus.
