I cheated The Emperor this morning. My session log says:
Code:
[493] Deck of Every Card
play IV - The Emperor (45)
Encounter: IV - The Emperor
Encounter: fratty The Emperor
Round 0: Veracity wins initiative!
Round 1: Veracity executes a macro!
Round 1: Veracity attacks!
Round 2: The Emperor takes 238 damage.
Round 2: Tubert runs in circles around your opponent, tangling him up in the nasty child leash and dealing 18 damage.
Round 2: The Emperor takes 18 damage.
Round 2: Veracity wins the fight!
You acquire an item: The Emperor's dry cleaning

You acquire an item: homoerotic frat-paddle

After Battle: Tubert is so excited about Crimbo that he starts doing backflips. (+11 Stats)

So, it automated it as expected.
Revision 16044 makes "cheat" a synonym for "play" and soups up the options as described in the commit text:
Code:
The "cheat" command is a synonym for the "play" command. options:
play random - play a random card (1 draw)
cheat phylum PHYLUM - cheat (5 draws) a fight with specified phylum
cheat stat STAT - cheat (5 draws) 500 substats of specified stat
cheat buff BUFF - cheat (5 draws) 20 turns of the specified buff, either by name
or by effect: muscle, mysticality, moxie, item drop (or items), initiative
cheat CARD - cheat (5 draws) the specified card name.
PHYLUM, STAT, BUFF, and CARD all use fuzzy matching.
So:
cheat stat muscle
will get you 500 substats of muscle, and
cheat buff muscle
will get you 20 turns of the +200% muscle effect.
Anything else we might want? Maybe items, but what is the advantage of saying:
cheat item knife
rather than simply
cheat knife
... since, in many cases, the card name is the same as the item name? Maybe not for mana, but if you know anything whatsoever about MtG,
cheat island
is OBVIOUSLY going to get you blue mana. And if you don't know MtG, it won't hurt you to learn enough about it to understand the 5 skills and the 5 mana sources.
