Curator's Office

You arrange the cards you own into decks here. Nothing you own can fight until it is in a deck.

Every level holds one more deck in this city. A deck is kept in the office of the city it is in, and the page lists only those.

A city needs one, with a free slot, before a deck can be sent there to defend it.

A deck whose city has no slot for it moves by itself to a free slot in another of your cities, as soon as one opens.

Each Curator's Office level gives your empire room for 100 more card copies. The count includes cards in your decks, cards you have put up for sale, and cards still on their way to you.

At the limit you cannot print a pack or buy a card at an Auction House until you have made room.

It is also where you repair cards damaged in battle, for mana, and recycle cards you do not want.

Curation research adds collection room and a deck slot, makes repairs cheaper and recycling pay more, and can keep a lost gallery raid from wearing your deck master.

Build one and it offers you a starter deck: 30 cards and a deck master, yours to keep, chosen once. Only the decks whose cards have all been submitted by their artists are offered.

After that it lists your decks and opens each one for arranging. Repair cards mends damaged cards with this city's mana, and Recycle cards turns cards you do not want into mana.

Curator's Office costs 180 wood and takes 6 minutes to build.

You need a Town Hall at level 2.

Every level after that costs about 35% more and takes about 40% longer than the one before, and stone is part of the price from level 5.
