Checks and Balances

For: When a player chooses a strategy card during the strategy phase, they give that strategy card to another player who does not have 1 (or a player who does not have 2, in a three- or four-player game), if able. If a player whose control token is on this card does not currently have a strategy card, they may discard that token to keep a chosen strategy card instead. The proponent: Places 1 of their control tokens on this card. Against: Remove all control tokens from public objectives and shuffle all scored secret objectives back into the deck. Players do not gain or lose victory points as a result of this. The dissenter: May immediately score 1 public objective.
