Expansion wave 4: 27 combat, curse, and utility cards

Fortune: GIFT FROM ABOVE (+3, no ceiling), GIFT FROM BELOW (a trap in
the deck — 3 damage on the draw, harmless in the opening deal).
Modifiers: POWER ATTACK burns life into any damage spell. Curses:
WEAKNESS (drop your treasure, take double, carry nothing), STRENGTH
(double physical dealt; the two cancel), WALKING DEAD (half a point
per space walked, forever), DISEASE (the victim becomes a carrier who
infects everyone in squares they enter), IDIOT (the victim shambles
toward their nearest own treasure, able only to counteract, until
they stand on it and ask "What am I doing here?"). Defense: EMPATHY
(attacks bite their caster too), FORCE FIELD (spell-stopping
counteraction). Mischief: MENTAL SWAP (trade whole hands), MENTAL
FORCE (march someone three spaces), BUTT-HEAD (become a goat, ram for
the distance charged), HEAVE-HO (throw your carried treasure as a
weapon), THIEF and SWAP-MEET (item larceny), CHAOS (all hands in a
pile, shuffled, redealt), ILLUSIONARY ATTACK (a fake spell that hurts
if believed), WARD (a trapped treasure bites its thief), REMOVE CURSE
(strip any duration spell, rolling to hit the shrunken or invisible),
SWARTHMORE'S ENCHANTMENT (+1 on an enchanted object). Space-time:
DIMENSIONAL WARP (paired step-through tokens), REDIRECTION (swap two
outer exits' wraparounds), BIG MAN (fills the corridor: no entry, no
punches, no casting past him), FEAR (nobody approaches within 3),
and the out-of-turn pair — INTERRUPT and OPPORTUNITY FIRE — which
open a one-action window in another player's turn. Only THUMB OF GOD
remains, awaiting its digital redesign. 117 tests passing.
