Title: Hello!
Post by: nrfind on May 21, 2012, 07:48:04 pm
Hi everyone!  My name is Nick, I'm from South Philadelphia, and I'm a huge Philly sports fan.  My wife and I have been getting into Dominion (and board games in general) since around Christmas when we got Settlers of Catan.  Dominion is our favorite game and we now own base, Intrigue, Prosperity, and Cornucopia.  We'll complete the collection soon enough.

Well, first off, welcome to the forum.
Secondly, for your next expansion, I recommend Seaside. Then Hinterlands, promos, and Alchemy in that order.
Thirdly, what is your favorite and least favorite card? My favorite is Haggler (Hinterlands) and my least favorite is  Tournament (Cornucopia).
Finally, Phillies, eh? Hmmm....

Seaside was definitely next on our list.
Favorite: Bishop
Least Favorite: Goons (seems to be overpowered)

Phils are struggling but they'll come around, especially after they get Utley/Howard back.  That pitching is too strong to not make the playoffs at minimum.

Edit: Oh, and what's the easiest way to find the Promo cards?

An if you do not want Seaside, go for Hinterlands. Just not Alchemy  ;)

Are you a 76ers fan? They have a tough road ahead of them, that's for sure.

Not a huge basketball fan but would like to see them succeed.  Celtics are tough, will be hard to win two in a row against them.
