CREATURE — PRIVATE MILITARY CONTRACTOR
Corporate Restructuring⊙ 3Exile this goblin, then return it to the battlefield transformed under a new name. It retains all counters and attachments.
Lobbying Gap⊙ 2Target opponent cannot search their library for contracts or influence cards until end of turn. (This reflects the absence of LDA filings for Constellis Holdings from 2015–2023.)
Prince's Plan⊙ 4Search your library for a foreign agent card and put it onto the battlefield. Shuffle your library. (Based on Erik Prince's informal 2017 White House proposal to replace US troops with private contractors.)
Public records show that Blackwater employees killed 17 Iraqi civilians in the 2007 Nisour Square massacre. The company subsequently rebranded as Xe Services (2009) and then Academi (2011). Its parent, Constellis Holdings, holds federal contracts exceeding $100 million, yet Lobbying Disclosure Act filings for the corporate entity between 2015 and 2023 are absent — a statistically significant anomaly for a contractor of this size.
