Dominion Isotropic / Internet Explorer - repeated disconnects

« on: October 30, 2011, 08:00:48 pm »

This is not an issue with the Isotropic server specifically, but this is hopefully the best board for it.

When I play on Isotropic with Internet Explorer I frequently get "You've reconnected fron another browser window"

This happens so often that I can't finish a game without running out of disconnects. This problem does not happen whatsoever on Firefox.

I know I could keep using Firefox all the time but sometimes I forget! Has anyone else had this issue?

Dominion General Discussion / Tournament Prizes - would you want any as a kingdom set?

« on: September 05, 2011, 07:25:52 am »

So out of the following, which one card would you like to see as a full kingdom set (not a prize, just available for buy):


Bag of Gold
+1 Action
 Gain a Gold, putting it on top of your deck.
 

Diadem
Worth $2.
 When you play this, +$1 per unused Action you have (Action, not Action card).
 
Followers
+2 Cards
 Gain an Estate. Each other player gains a Curse and discards down to 3 cards in hand.
 

Princess
+1 Buy
 While this is in play, cards cost $2 less, but not less than $0.
 
Trusty Steed
Choose two: +2 Cards; or +2 Actions; or +$2; or gain 4 Silvers and put your deck into your discard pile.


For me I think Diadem would be the most interesting, because it can create a decision whether to play more action cards or take the money.

Princess and Trusty Steed would be a little powerful, but I'm sure there are some good opinions out there.

Dominion General Discussion / Jester

« on: July 06, 2011, 09:44:26 pm »

I would like to ask for suggestions on how to effectively counter Jester.

As far as I can tell the only way to truly defend against it is a Moat.

Any defence that lets you re-order what is on the top of your deck will either present your opponent with a good card that they will discard and then gain a copy of, or gives them a bad card which they will give you a copy of.

Oh and as a bonus it will hand out curses on occasion. But wait, there is more! It also gives you 2 dollars to spend. For a 5 dollar card this seems an absolute bargain.

So when my opponent opens 5/2... what can I do to counter a Jester based deck?

Dominion Isotropic / Registering to play

« on: June 26, 2011, 04:18:50 am »

Are there any plans to create a way of registering for Isotropic Dominion without having to sign up for either gmail or yahoo?

I realise that it doesn't take forever to get an account with one of these providers but it is still a barrier to players registering.

Rules Questions / Contraband+Tournament Prizes

« on: June 22, 2011, 05:00:39 am »

Contraband: When you play this, the player to your left names a card. You can't buy that card this turn.

During tournament games Isotropic brings up extra options to prevent Tournament Prizes from being bought.

Tournament: Each player may reveal a Province from his hand. If you do, discard it and gain a Prize (from the Prize pile) or a Duchy.

Since the prize is gained and not bought, surely this option to name a tournament prize is unecessary or am I missing something?
