NOTES:

The Barbed Wire Project  (BWP)

 

When barbed wire was first introduced to the west, one of the sales pitches was, "Cheap as dirt and strong as whiskey." The idea behind the BWP is to create a series of decks that are as cheap as dirt (using commons and uncommons) but strong enough to hold up to a table with more expensive decks, in order for new players to use. Sure, starter decks are great, but they not free (usually), and for new players who are reserved about spending money or have little cash, this could be a nice way to get them more interested in the game.

 

Submit your deck ideas for the barbed wire project in the Deck Archive and title the subject with Barbed Wire Project (or BWP).

 

Errata Notes: None

 

Strategy Notes: None

 

Play Notes: This deck is fairly straight forward. The trick is getting your votes pased. It is more than likely you will have to try to work with one other player to gain enough votes to win referrendums, so try to allocate your damaging votes to get their buy-in. Note that oftentimes having the edge will make the difference between passing a vote and failing one so bleed for the edge at stealth before you cast your first vote if possible.
