Don't pick "at random". Pick something that sounds realistic/funny/good.
That sounds natural, even easy, but most Euro players I play with (including myself) don't think in terms of "realistic". We have no context for what that means, not having played Magic or other CCGs, and usually ignoring the theme even when there is one. "Funny" is a curse word for us; if a game tries to be funny, that's usually at the expense of it being good. "Good" puts this thread in an infinite loop.
