Help! / Correct Way To Play This Kingdom
« on: September 13, 2016, 11:09:09 pm »
I sometimes play Dominion under an alias to test new strategies or new cards. Today I played under the alias "Player Z" and did a game that included 4 cards I am not familiar with -- Prince, Horse Trader, Farming Village, and Harvest. The kingdom is below.
The game log is at http://gokosalvager.com/static/logprettifier.html?http://dominion-game-logs.s3.amazonaws.com/game_logs/20160914/log.0.1473820620061.txt . I purchased each of the 4 new cards, so I got a feel for them. I think all of them are interesting additions that I'd like to see in games more often. Prince in particular seems to open the door to new types of games and strategies. I came up with an okay enough strategy to win, but I'm sure this wasn't the best way to play the kingdom. I opened Silver/Chapel, bought a Horse Trader next, then used it to quickly get Golds and higher priced cards. I chose to Prince the Horse Trader, rather than the Farming Village.
I am curious what would be a more optimal way to play this kingdom?
