History:

2013-02-20 10:51:24: Alex created the card Leader's Restriction

Created for Challenge # 068 as a fix of Breader's Digestion. The problems with the source card are threefold: 1) it's a white effect; 2) the sorcery restriction stops it doing anything useful; 3) it's a lot worse than Moment of Silence (which is itself worse than Holy Day).

The natural fix to 1) and 2) does end up as an instant that's a more restricted Moment of Silence; perhaps with a cantrip added to fix 3) as well.

I went for a fractionally different fix, making a slightly more interesting card that keeps the sorcery speed of the original. Even ignoring the cantrip, this also has potential to be better than Moment of Silence in group games... if you're against multiple Zombie players, say.

Oh, and I fixed the formatting of the flavour text, to match the existing Shakespeare quotes as on e.g. Early Harvest. ;)
