************************************************************************ [I will publish INWO Dirty Tricks whenever I get around to it and have
a few good tricks to share. If you've got a fiendish and cunning Dirty
Trick, publish it on the list; if I like it, I'll mention it in an
issue of the Dirty Tricks.] [Since I can't find the archive of Dan Myers' old Dirty Tricks, I
don't know where the numbers should begin--so I'm beginning with
number 23. By the way, would anyone like to give me a small picture
with which to tag the selected Dirty Tricks on my web page of
card tips and commentaries?] Scott McNair pointed out that if the Nutrition Nazis control Dinosaur
Park, then all your Science Groups can defend each other: Dinosaur
Park allows the Nutrition Nazis to oppose any attack on a Science
Groups, and the Nazi's participation allows any Science Group to join
the defense. Mike Chiulli (ChiulliAXP@aol.com) has pointed out that you can use
Murphy's Law to give OPEC an extremely high power. And since this high
power is Printed Power, you could use a power-doubler like the
Necronomicon or Cyborg Soldiers to double that power. With the last revision in the meaning of 'discarded', it became legal
to use the special ability of the Trading Card Games to replace them
with another group, and then to use the Recycling Centers to recover
the discarded Trading Card Games. But it can be difficult to get
out the Recycling Centers, particularly in a game without automatic
takeovers. Christian Wedge came up with a cunning trick to overcome this
liability: If you can take over the Trading Card Games and keep them
until they get an action token, you can replace them with the
Recycling Centers, and then use the Recycling Centers' action token to
recover the Trading Card Games immediately.
