Designers Sandy and Kevan
Date 2nd June 2002
Players 2+
This is a playable deck - it's finished, tested and ready to play.
To play Dvorak: Draw five cards each and leave the rest as a draw pile. On your turn, draw a card from the draw pile and play one Thing and/or one Action. (See the full rules.)

This deck is locked. Further cards should not be added - leave feedback on the talk page.

A competitive take on the Time Team archaeology programme, more or less. Dig up enough stuff to fill an hour's worth of television.

Special Rules

Airtime

Whenever an Artefact is played, it adds 'x' minutes to the airtime of the Player who gets ownership of it, and 'x' minutes to the programme's total airtime.

Roll Credits

When the programme's total airtime exceeds an hour, whoever has the highest personal airtime (ie. whoever contributed most to the programme) wins the game. In the event of a tie, look surprised.

Trenches

Artefacts must be played into Trenches; if a Player doesn't have a Trench, they can't gain Artefacts. You can play Artefacts into any Player's Trench.
