Card Extra Gral from Allen Gould (12/1999) |

Let no-one say that the Ferengi are not a friendly race. Even the Nagus, the most august and revered Ferengi, will take the time out to offer some free advice to his opponent. "Go ahead, try the mission. It's quite all right, honest." Helpful but not entirely altruistic. If your opponent takes your advice, she gets to discard two cards (either from their hand or draw deck), while you can draw up to two cards. So for 3 turns she can sit there and wonder whether it's worth her while to take your advice. This can be an awkward choice for anyone at a critical point in the game, as two cards either way can make quite a difference. The presence of a Nagus isn't too much of a problem as you have a choice of two or Krax who will serve at a push. Grand Nagus Gint works best as he can use his special download to access any of the Rules of Acquisition (he did write them after all). Once you have Gint in play you can exploit the Rules of Acquisition to download the 59th rule at any time. So you are ready to offer help to your opponent whenever he looks like he needs some advice. So why would you want to be so helpful to your opponent? One option is to bluff your opponent out of doing a mission that you know she can do easily. How much does she trust you? You'll soon know...and it'll cost her to find out if that trust is well-placed or not. Or try the double bluff. Use the 59th Rule on your opponents high point mission, knowing that they will fail. This allows you to rub salt in the wounds by drawing cards while they discard (always fun) and then moving in to complete the mission. This can be especial fun when a Sheliak is due to return. So just remember these words "Go ahead and attempt. It's all right, trust me." With the 59th Rule in play your opponent will shudder every time she hears those words. Combo:
