Dominion FAQ / Re: Upgrading to Silver or Gold?

« on: August 29, 2019, 02:11:32 pm »

Appreciate the responses, especially pubby. I can see that Mine is probably not the best card to buy, as enticing as it sounds at times. I tend to fall into its trap for whatever reason, especially in a game that I am getting +actions. Some good strategy points though, thank you all!

Dominion FAQ / Upgrading to Silver or Gold?

« on: August 28, 2019, 11:26:21 pm »

Very basic strategy question here, and it may not even be worthy of asking, but I am curious what info/opinions people might have.

In a hand with a silver and a copper, when using a Mine, which do you upgrade? Copper --> Silver or Silver --> Gold?

Any explanations or thoughts would be much appreciated. Apologies if its a 6:1 Half a Dozen type question.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: New Player-Strategy Question

Appreciate the advice so far. I lost the first time trying to go the Minion route, and I didn't utilize Wharf nearly enough it seems. My opponent went Torturer pretty hard, so it felt like I was never able to really get anything going even though we started pretty similarly.

I've played it twice since posting and seem to have some success with primarily Wharf/Torturer/Fishing Village. Interestingly I've never seen Swindler as a great card and wasn't sure about Haggler/Forager so I avoided those. Maybe I am not appreciating them to their fullest?

Appreciate the responses and help.

Dominion General Discussion / New Player-Strategy Question

« on: April 24, 2019, 03:07:56 pm »

First time poster and a relatively new player of Dominion. I've read through a number of strategy guides and texts and feel my general understanding of the game is pretty decent. That being said, I feel I've gotten in a rut of not improving and losing consistently. I don't know what I need to improve in order to be a better player and I am not totally sure where my game is lacking. While I have general questions about that and would like to improve, I figured a better way to maybe understand it is to post a game I've played several times and lost terribly at both times (40ish-9 and 50ish to 18ish). Would love feedback on how you'd play this kingdom, what strategies are best, and what to avoid, in the hopes that maybe I can come to better understand the game. If this isn't the right place for this post, I apologize. Thanks for any suggestions or thoughts.

Kingdom:
Lurker
Fishing Village
Forager
Swindler
Death Cart
Haggler
Minion
Torturer
Upgrade
Wharf

(I played this 2-player if that matters)

Thank you!
