        The Ministry offer strong bleed and politics decks, namely
        {{ platinum_revelation }} and {{ infernal_barons }}. But they also have some more niche builds like
        {{ chameleon }}, and can support interesting variations in out-of-clan archetypes like with {{ the_unnamed }}.

        Before the 2021 release of the {{ v5_ministry }}, The Ministry {{ ministry }} were called
        Followers of Set {{ follower_of_set_legacy }}, and they had {{ ser }} as clan discipline instead of {{ pro }}.
        Those legacy Ministry still see play, with their most successful archetype nowadays

The lead Baron for Ministry, she has got the right disciplines at a decent price to run
{{ platinum_revelation }}. Her inferior {{ tha }} lets her put a {{ crimethinc }} in play
instead of just unlocking after {{ the_platinum_protocol }}.

Second Ministry Baron, her inferior {{ pro }} is a bummer, but she is cheap.

The latest (2023) Ministry Baron, on the expensive side, but that means he can make even better use of
{{ chameleon }}, like in the {{ chameleon_archetype }}.
{% endtrans %}

{% call layout.card_column("Nonu Dis", decks=40, copies="1-3") %}

A tad expensive, and not a Baron, but his ability can generate a surprising amount of blood.

{% call layout.card_column("Opium Den", decks=61, copies="1") %}
{% trans trimmed the_labyrinth=card("The Labyrinth") %}
A nice permanent stealth enhancer at a low cost, a must have for the Ministry.
Only the Nosferatu with {{ the_labyrinth }} have a comparable location.
{% endtrans %}
{% endcall %}

{% call layout.card_column("Saatet-ta", decks=40, copies="1") %}
{% trans trimmed %}
A superb ally, so versatile he has his place in virtually all Ministry decks.
{% endtrans %}
{% endcall %}

{% call layout.card_column("Ferraille", decks=20, copies="1") %}
{% trans trimmed %}
A decent vote enhancer. Although a bit costly, swinging a vote can be worth a pool.
{% endtrans %}
{% endcall %}

{% call layout.card_column("Mesu Bedshet", decks=10, copies="2-4") %}
{% trans trimmed heshas_emporium=link("/archetypes/heshas-emporium") %}
A good action for all Ministry builds (legacy or not) planning to get more than 4 minions out.
