In my experience you don't try to guarantee the Keep points by getting the majority of the pile, you just make sure that you have as much or more than your opponent which means you have just 1 or 2 more stop cards than your opponent.

Would it be possible to create an option to just list the cards picked in text form?

Let's Discuss ... / Re: Let's Discuss Adventures Cards: Miser
« on: March 03, 2016, 10:10:12 am »
I had a game recently where Miser was useful.
Scrying Pool, Oasis, Squire, Market, no trashing except for Miser.
I got down to a deck playing multiple $7 Misers consistently.
Granted, my opponent both ignored Scrying Pool and opened Miser, so I knew I had a lot of time.
So, it's possible Miser wasn't the best choice, but I think it was the funnest choice.

I created Penal System.
I was intentionally trying to create a counter-attack reaction that wouldn't make attacks worthless, but I obviously made the punishment too harsh.
I was thinking it wouldn't overly punish attacks because you could still have one per turn that wouldn't effect you as long as you played it last, but I didn't really consider that if that was the case Penal System probably isn't worth buying on that board.
Maybe just making the restriction on playing further attacks so it shuts down Minion, Scrying Pool, Urchin, and somewhat drawing attacks might have been better.

« on: February 29, 2016, 02:10:26 pm »Am I right in assuming that the hand during the buy phase only consists of left over VP cards like non-Inherited Estates and dead action cards?
Putting back dead action cards can be actually helpful, putting back VP cards isn't.
Also treasures you choose not to play.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: IRL Adventures stories
« on: August 04, 2015, 03:17:23 pm »Is there really no one else who does a separate row for each cost? Like this:
CSGT
EDPU
$2's
$3's
$4's
$5's
$6's
Usually there won't be more than five rows, but if there are you can combine $6's and $7's or $1's and $2's if you really need to. I haven't played Adventures yet but with this method you can just put Events into the appropriate cost row. No one really agrees on where potion cost cards should go. When we play in space we just have them float above the appropriate row to represent that it costs more than that row, but neither more than nor less than the next row.
That's what I do except I have the treasures along the top of the kingdom cards and the victory cards along the left side (or vice-versa).

Dominion Articles / Re: Things that make Menagerie amazing
« on: July 30, 2015, 11:13:48 pm »
In my experience Artificer is one of the best cards to pair with Menagerie. Artificer both enables Menagerie and puts something worth drawing on top of your deck. It's fairly easy to enable a constant stream of activated menageries.

« on: August 28, 2012, 08:48:28 pm »
You are saying that a card which is in the trash can't be played. Where is your justification for that? So are you saying that a card "Choose a card from your hand. Play it. Play it." can't play it the second time if you choose Feast? Because I am saying that that card is functionally equivalent to Throne Room. Now do you see?
You say "When you play it, it becomes a Feast, and you play the Feast twice".
But you're totally ignoring how triggering works in Dominion. You think that you can play a card twice before actually resolving what that card does. You can't. You have to wait until you've resolved it once before you can play it again. It seems even clearer to me now.
I would argue that alternate Throne Room ( choose a card. Play it. Play it.) is different from regular Throne Room and wouldn't let you double feast.

What if you try:
+2 Cards
-2 Cards
Everyone else discards down to 3.
Everyone (including you) gains 2 Coppers putting them into her hand.

Rules Questions / Re: Knights and Black Market
« on: August 17, 2012, 10:18:14 pm »What no one does, but should do, is to have a deck that is just like the randomizers, but with one of each regular-backed card. When drawing a random ten for kingdom, use this pile and then add the other 9 (or 7 or 11 depending on number of players) to the pile to make the standard ten. Then, use the remaining cards as the Black Market deck. If you buy a card from Black Market, all you need to do is put it in your discard - no fishing for the regular-backed version from the box. At the end of the game, just return one of each regular-backed card to your Black Market deck and put the other nine in their proper spots in their boxes.
That's exactly what I used to do until I reorganized my Dominion into one box.
Now I use an app randomizer that supports Black Market.
