Description

**TLDR** Prince, a Dominion promo Action card (cost 8), lets you set aside a ≤4-cost Action for automatic replay at each turn's start until mishandled. (18 words) **Key mechanics include:** - *Set-aside activation*: Optionally set Prince aside with an Action card from hand costing up to 4 coins. - *Automated recurring play*: At the start of each of your turns, play the set-aside Action, then set it aside again upon discard from play. - *Persistence condition*: The effect stops if you fail to set aside the Action on a turn when playing it. - *Promo context*: Released at Origins 2014 as part of the Dominion series. **Prince** is an Action card from the Dominion series, released as a promo at Origins 2014 with a cost of 8 coins. Its core effect offers strategic depth through optional setup: you may set it aside, simultaneously selecting and setting aside one Action card from your hand that costs up to 4 coins. This initiates a looping mechanism where, at the start of each subsequent turn, the chosen Action is automatically played, and upon its discard from play, it is set aside again to perpetuate the cycle. The recursion halts only if, during a turn when the Action is played, you fail to properly set it aside again, introducing risk management and reliability in execution. This enables powerful, sustained effects from low-cost Actions without repeated purchases or plays, emphasizing foresight in card selection and hand management within Dominion's deck-building framework.
