I don't think they're greedy. they're just oblivious.

How hard is it to open a browser and read the forum on your own game?

Reworded some things on my card so that it is more clear that you can move artifacts to the new zone the turn the location is played in order to get untouchable for that turn.

In my humble opinion, there is no need for new zone: if the point of it is just protection of artifacts - make all artifacts untouchable while this location is in play (just example, but that way you avoid long text which is consequence of adding new zone and explaining effects connected).
Another thing: I feel there is no need to decrease potential morale gain - it would be already small and with little impact even without dividing by 2.

I will just remove the dividing. As for the new zone, there is a big difference between the zone and giving it untouchable. It may be the same for the first turn, but as for the subsequent turns it becomes a mind game like with death ray where you have to predict the opponent on whether he will put the character on the battlefield or in the support zone.

So for the following turns it is still possible to land artifact removal if you can predict the zone that the other player will put it in. Also as the Artifact Center Zone gives additional benefit from placing artifacts in the zone, there will be more bias for placing the artifacts there. The player will need to make the deliberate decision to place it in the support zone to avoid removal and that will give rise to interesting mind games.

Cultural Artifact Center
Factionless - Uncommon
4 cost
Location

While in play a new Artifact Center Zone is added that you can move artifacts to and from.

On the turn Cultural Artifact Center is played all artifacts in the Artifact Center Zone have untouchable.

Any subsequent turn when Artifacts are targeted the player targeting the card has to select between Support or Artifact Center Zone and if the Artifact is not in the selected Zone, the Artifact is unaffected by the targeted effect.

At the end of the turn gain X morale where X is the number of Artifacts in the Artifact Center Zone.

When the Artifact Center Zone is removed from the game all Artifacts in the Zone are moved to the Support Zone.

As it is worded "While in play a new Artifact Center Zone is added", if the card is destroyed or the text of the card is removed from it then the Artifact Center Zone gets removed from the game.

Archeologist's Obsession
1p Exiles + 1p GI
3 cost
Unique Mission- Artificial

Mission: Whenever you deploy a Demon or Artificial card from anywhere, at the end of the turn, draw 3 cards, then discard all non-Artifact cards drawn this way.

Completion 5: Transform into a Temple of the Inspired

"dig! DIG! I can smell it! It's so close! I think...?"

Temple of the Inspired
1p Exiles + 1p GI
Unique Location- Artificial

When Temple of the Inspired leaves the deployed area, transform it into Archeologist's Obsession and return it to your hand.

Whenever you deploy an Artifact card, deal 5 damage to up to 3 targets including: characters on the battlefield or your opponent's fortress. Characters dealt damage this way become exhausted.

Pay 4: Return target Artifact to its owner's hand.

Here lies the greatest inventions of our past. Contributions are always welcome.

---

Temple of the Inspired deals 5 damage to up to 3 targets. So you cannot choose the same target more than once, each target takes maximum 5 damage each time this triggers. Targets can be characters on the battlefield or your opponents fortress.

You can return artifacts to their owner's hand to counter their activations.

The mission completion only ticks maximum once per turn

Make a location that synergies somehow with artifacts.
It may be special perk/ability that is enabled while you control certain number of artifacts or just you need to destroy any artifact you have deployed in order to activate.

The judgement:
Number11

The Most Unsettling
1 purity CoV - Legendery
1 cost
4 morale
Unique Character - Aberration
1/8

While The Most Unsettling is deployed, at the end of the turn if you have non-aberration character(s) deployed as well then lose 6 morale.

"A one of a kind aberration that has a most disturbing presence."


This character works well as a stall while you don't have other non-aberrations in play and can be an early drop. You can also infiltrate the character to cause morale damage to the opponent.

Quite a nice card to infiltrate. It is cheap, the cost for the combo is not very high and repeated morale damage is very useful for CoV. I think it is only somewhat useful as early game blocker though. Characters with high health/low attack tend to trade very poorly and especially 1 attack is almost useless plus its stats are not even that good considering that it has a disadvantage attached to it. Nevertheless, a solid character your opponent will not want to control at all should you get the combo off.

NTL

Name: Empathizer
Faction/Purity: 1 Exile
Type: Unique Character - Demon
Rarity: Epic
Cost: 1
Morale: 0
Attack/Health: 1/6
Rules Text:

Whenever an enemy Character is killed, you lose 4 morale.
When Empathizer dies, your opponent gains control of it instead of it going to the Graveyard.

I like this card. It would go well in a deck that sacrifices its own creatures and some kind of worse infiltration is inbuilt already. No one really ever wants to control this thing and it can 'bounce' between players, adding some nice mindgames and even some emphasis on turn priority when setting up combos with it. Also the theme fits the mad and quirky nature of exiles well, good job!

Hiding

Knowledge Cannon
2p GI or 1p Exiles
3 cost
12 morale
Unique Character- Artificial

If deployed:
"The top card of your deck is always revealed. You may play the top card of your deck.

You cannot play cards from your hand."

pay 3: Remove the top card of your deck, each player takes damage equal to its resource cost.

0/4

"INFINITE KNOWLEDGE!!! WAHOOHOOHOOHOOHOO" - Tristan, the "Blessed One"

Despite not having much text, this one is very versatile and has a lot going for it. It is an enabler of absolute cheese decks and might be an absolute nightmare when combined with FD, just relentlessly throwing bodies at your opponent, making it so that your hand is no longer the limit when you rush, but it is also squishy and has a high morale cost. I think this card either does amazing in the right decks or maybe I am overhyping it and it would perform absolutly horribly bad. Either way, great and interesting idea.

CommunistMountain

Name: Royal Chief Scientific Officer
Purity: Factionless
Type: Unique Character - Human
Rarity: Epic
Cost: 0
Morale: 0
Power/Health: 0/4
Rules Text:
-At the start of every turn, draw an additional card, overcharge once, your fortress takes 5 damage, and you lose 5 morale.
-When X dies, is sacrificed or is removed from the game while in play, your fortress takes 5 damage and you lose 5 morale.
Flavor Text: “Look, Sir, we really appreciate what you’re doing, but our budget isn’t infinite…”

A powerful card. I like it. Drawing an additional card at the cost of overcharging once and receiving damage/morale damage seems pretty good. The card is squishy and can be a double edged sword. Especially towards the end of the game it can also be given to your opponent and be problematic for them. A great entry, well done.

And the winners:

3rd - Hiding
2nd - CommunistMountain
1st - NTL

Congrats to the winner and thanks for everyone for participating!

By all means, spread the word as much as you can. It's a shame all the outlets I've contacted seem to be ignoring this (aside from LegacyKillaHD, whose mods at least commented on how long this would take to read).

Since my last post, I've also reached out to ZiggyD, who actually covered IW a while back. Again, no reply as of yet. Maybe later, I guess.

I never even thought of doing a steam review, thanks for the tip.

Couldn't agree more Pixelei, in case your post is deleted, I took the liberty of copy-pasting it to my pastebin account, here's the link in case you or someone else needs it: https://pastebin.com/X8EnHcAy

I also updated my old Steam review changing it to negative, and posting your explanation since I pretty much think and feel the same.
