The Unrelenting Lust for Profit Is it on purpose, that this card might be seeded at Quark's Bar, but be rather useless there (1st Rule cannot be downloaded there) ?

Doesn't say 1st Rule has to download there. If you've seeded a suitable ship, it can go there instead.

True but useless for my idea

IIRC, for most of its design-phase life, Unrelenting Lust either played on table or on a Ship or Facility. Quark's was injected at the end because, well, it seemed cool, and because so many Ferengi decks revolve around it. I don't recall why it was limited to a trading post.

A not-terrible trick is to seed Unrelenting Lust on Quark's Bar, then download 1st Rule to your Tower of Commerce.

FUN FACT: The working title of this card was "He Has The Lobes."

Huh! I have no memory of writing this!

Not a bad article, though. (Although there's a couple rules errors in the last paragraph, shame on me.) Obviously I was having a little in-joke with myself with that title.

Man, I should play a Ferengi deck.

The Unrelenting Lust for Profit allows me to ...
- seed it
- download 1st rule on my first turn
- download a V.I.P with it
- play it immediately after it (so that I do not have to wait until turn 2, to play it)


Right?

Whenever I think the same thing, I quickly end up remembering that Ferengi really are the underpants gnomes of 1e.
Step 1: get a bunch of random stuff into play
Step 2: ??????
Step 3: Watch the opponent win

But if I ever figure something out, it will greatly surpass Snipers for title of "most randomly ingenious deck ever"

Well, I had great fun with a Brunt's Shuttle-DropDeck with a bunch of guns, Padds and Treachery x2 peps and not taking orders from anyone at planets .

Ha! I do not take orders from you abuse is on my short of "things to look into". I may have to revisit this and borrow from your deck.

However ... keep in mind that it means you have to have a chance for battle.

If a player is able to 'hide' at the homeworld, you never get the chance.
