Alright then...how about Bang!? Or maybe Love Letter?
Why would it have to be in one sitting?I'd like to host a game of Coup or Bang!
I love coup, play it all the time IRL. I've thought about it as a forum game before but I don't see how it could work well unless everyone was on at the same time and played an entire game in one sitting. How much time will you give to people to react to actions?
Well, the second riddle is pretty clearly Margrave.Wow! It is Margrave! Just to make sure you weren't guessing, how did you know?
Well, cards that give you +1 action are generally referred to as 'free actions.' Throne Room gives you +1 card because it's like taking a card from the Supply. And it lets you play that card along with another, so it's also like +1 action.You're right! It's Throne Room.
that doesn't make sense. throne room is an action. and it doesn't give +1action or +1card or neither, it can give any number of +cards and several +actions.
Im late to the discussion but omg take the duchess. I mean not always, but more than you do. She's free and your deck is not as good as you think it is.Just because it's free doesn't mean you should buy it. Take this hypothetical situation: you have $4 in your hand, and you play the Woodcutter. Of course, you'll then buy Gold, but you still have 1 buy and 0 coins. But will you buy a Curse or Copper? No, because it'll cloud up your deck, which is the reason they're free.
Sorry to bring up ancient topics.
If it was autocorrect, it would have corrected drunbk...Im a bitt drunbk
So it would appear.
But he did spell doubleLabWithABonusFor4 correctly.
Probably autocorrect.
You are indeed selling me on this. Tokens are always a plus, and the one-shot theme is still there! Also, a card that could go with this could be 'trash a card costing at least $[?]. Then [special power.]Personally, I'd like to see some sort of "one-shot" expansion, with a focus on single-use abilities. Maybe some new tokens? I don't know, I'm just spitballing here.Actaully, that was the original mechanic for 'Intruige' but I read somewhere that some people didn't like one-shots...I'd agree that a whole expansion on that one mechanic would make the game a bit boring, with no Actions in your hand. One part of another expansion would be a good idea, though.
Hmm, good call. What if there were only a couple of actual one-shot cards, and then a handful of you-may-trash-this cards, like Mining Village? And—brainstorm!—what if there were one-shot cards that didn't leave your deck after you played them for their ones-shot ability? Like, you got a token when you gained the card, then you could use the token when you played that card to get some extra bonus, but the card stayed in your deck? That would solve the situation where you have no Actions left. And then some off-theme cards to round things out. Is this working? Am I selling you on this?

You are correct, sir!
