Dominion General Discussion / Weird Engine/Slog kingdom I just played

« on: February 28, 2024, 07:14:51 am »

City Quarter, Inn, Village Green, Witch, Hunting Grounds, Sculptor, Vagrant, Lurker, Menagerie, Market Square, Save, Invest

Lots of engine components, but also decks that will obviously fill up with junk with no way to get rid of it.

I think I opened Invest (Witch)/Silver.

Dominion General Discussion / How would you play this constructed kingdom?

« on: October 09, 2023, 01:24:08 am »

One of the many random places I hang out is the BoardGameGeek Facebook group, and somebody posted this constructed kingdom to it:

Peasant, Gear, Scheme, Walled Village, Tournament, Miser, Scavenger, Margrave, Treasure Trove, King's Court

His strategic advice I leave here without comment.

Scheme and Scavenger are key to maximizing the value of some of these otherwise underutilized cards. Kings Court, if you get to affording that, makes the prize cards way more worth the effort to get them.

Game Reports / Thought I was down and out here...

...turns out the two-Ambassadors-to-one advantage bought me enough time to make a comeback.

Kingdom: City, Highway, Hamlet, Oasis, Steward, Torturer, Cultist, Expand, Ambassador and some other card which nobody seemed to care about.

Dominion General Discussion / How would you play this board?

« on: October 03, 2017, 10:20:47 am »

No Colonies, no Shelters.

Stonemason, Apothecary, Sage, Menagerie, Gladiator, Magpie, Militia, Worker's Village, Governor, Treasury
Pilgrimage

I just won a tight game with this layout 39-35, but probably neither of us played it anywhere close to optimally.

Game Reports / Three-pile out of nowhere

« on: March 26, 2017, 05:12:03 pm »

Governor and Border Village can both lead to games with strange three-piles. Here's one with both, where I gain four Border Village/Torturer pairs in the last turn.

Kingdom: Border Village, Torturer, Governor, Replace, Envoy, Cutpurse, Smugglers, Oasis, Fool's Gold and some other card that impacted not at all.

Rules Questions / Inheritance on Hireling

« on: March 20, 2017, 07:09:41 am »

I'm not sure whether this works in the way I think it does, so stop me if I'm wrong about something.

You get the cost of Hireling down to $4 by means of Bridge or some such card. Wheee, you can Inherit it! Your Estates are now Action-Duration-Victory cards.

You play an Estate or several. Each of them is a Hireling, and gives you +1 Card per turn forever.

You then buy Inheritance again, and Inherit a different card...

...
Hireling's effect is on-play, not "while this is in play", so your Hirelings are still giving you +1 Card/turn
But the Estates are no longer Hirelings, so they aren't tracking anything, and thus get discarded in clean-up.

Game Reports / Just squeaked in in a Goons game

« on: January 04, 2017, 08:35:06 am »

tl;dr: Both of us went for Goons; I went full-on engine, despite the lack of trashing. He went for more of a sloggy approach. I was behind by 25 points on the last turn, but just about managed to get enough of my engine working together to empty the Gardens and Merchant piles and gain enough Coppers to put me over the top.

Non-Mafia Game Threads / 270 to win

« on: October 25, 2016, 10:57:38 am »

Here's a game I just invented using just a map of the US.

One player takes a map of all the US states and colours it according to some arbitrary rule. The object of the game for the other players is to guess the arbitrary rule. The winner then follows up with his own rule and so on.

Here's an easy one to start you off:

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Prosperity Cards: Expand

« on: June 18, 2016, 11:44:31 am »

Like King's Court, it's a $7 version of a Base Set $4 card with "two" replaced with "three". Unlike King's Court, it's nowhere much on the Qvist rankings.

What are the best situations for this card?
How valuable is its flexibility, in terms of what card types it can trash?
Have you ever Processioned an Expand into a Prince?

11

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Prosperity Cards: Counting House

« on: June 15, 2016, 05:37:49 pm »

So this is the card that has been bottom of the $5 rankings for a while now.

How awesome is the combo with Travelling Fair?
What other combos does it have?
What is it like as a Prince target?

12

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Prosperity Cards: Contraband

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Prosperity Cards: City

« on: June 11, 2016, 05:32:40 pm »

It's my favourite Dominion card!

Are there any setups where you'd get this just for its Village effect?
What cards are likely to make this really strong?
How important is being the first one to play City after a pile empties?

(My best-ever City game: Chapel, University, Minion, City and Peddler were all in the tableau. I opened Chapel/Potion on the way to a 13-turn three-pile with seven Provinces in my deck.)

I love bishops. I frequently sacrifice a rook for one. Wait, wrong game.

At what point in a game should you normally get this?

What, other than Fortress, does it best combo with?

So, Prosperity. It's my favourite expansion, with lots of big and shiny cards. Here's a nice, big, shiny one to kick off with.

Which types of decks do you want this in?
How good is it at passing the Gold test?
What's the greatest amount of +Coin you have ever got from a Bank?

What kingdom cards does it have synergy with?

Let's Discuss ... / Let's discuss Alchemy cards: Transmute

« on: April 29, 2016, 04:48:37 pm »

Is trashing a Squire to get it a thing?

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Alchemy Cards: Possession

« on: April 27, 2016, 12:20:31 pm »

Is it worth passing up Ambassador or Masquerade when this card is on the board?
Is it worth slogging up your deck to defend against it?
What interesting interactions does it have with Adventures cards?

« on: April 25, 2016, 08:28:06 pm »

Harry Potter is quite interested in this card. Which is good, because nobody else is.

How good is it in combination with Herbalist?
What other interesting combos does it have?
Is it ever worth getting if it's the only Potion-cost card on the board?

23

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Alchemy Cards: Herbalist

« on: April 24, 2016, 07:45:21 pm »

It's the only Alchemy card that does not explicitly mention Potion!

How useful is its Treasure-topdecking ability?
When should you get it?
What is the most you've ever paid for it?

24

Let's Discuss ... / Let's Discuss Alchemy Cards: Golem
