by cmeister2:

I did a Gatherer search for common Equipment, and turned up Explorer's Scope. I think this might be too good for common...

by Alex:

Yipe! Yeah, perhaps so. The Scope required the creature to get into a risky situation (combat). This feels like it'd be a pretty relentless source of card advantage. Perhaps if it asked you to pay some mana?

by jmgariepy:

Paying mana seems like an antithesis of why you would have this card be a fortification. We probably should have it only work if it matches land types with the fortified land, however. That takes advantage of fortify and makes this an artifact that's good for mono.

by Link:

What if it gave spells this ability, so that you had to be actually spending the mana on something?

by jmgariepy:

Looking at common Fortifications. CMeister2's card is up against CMeister2's card. I'm either adding this card or Aeran Nexus to the file to help smooth over mana bases. Anybody got a preference?

by Link:

Aerans Nexus definitely seems like a better fit at common.
