You can still make Windmill decks of course using Carbon Tax or by capturing a Lowland (+Double Down?!).
removedClean-up cards were used a lot and often the target of an instant Counterfeit. We also felt clean-up is not as necessary with less junk in the starting deck. That's why we’ve removed Repurpose (but it will return in an expansion 😉) and moved Manage Arsenal to Tier 2.

Broker brings a unique cost reduction effect to the base set. Quickly stock up on some sweet supportable Action cards or push with Units. There's also potential for some epic finishing moves! 😉
