Sage skips fan made cards like gunpowder and bomb!
This thread would probably make an excellent source of test cases for the new Dominion client. How would you make a UI that makes that sequence halfway understandable?
From the gunpowder thread?Respect from me for corner case when beggar/poorhouse is better than beggar/garden
wait nothing is better than beggar garden!
Gardens are weak because Bishop is available alongside Vineyards and a great engine (maybe Scrying Pool). Beggar/Poor House can serve as two of the cheap action cards you drain to pump your Vineyards and end the game on piles.
Or Beggar is weak because you used all your Coppers to make proxy cards.
If this were RBCI...
Canon Cannon
Cost: $4
Action-Attack
Each other player trashes a proxy card or reveals a hand with no proxy cards.
I remember seeing an idea similar to this on BGG not too long ago, and it got ripped to shreds. It's a win more card. It doesn't make for interesting situations or add to the strategy most of the time, it just gives you more points for already being in a good position.
If you get a couple provinces and a few Wonders you have an astronomical point lead.
True; yet each Wonder you get was also a Province you had to get... so if you have 2 Provinces and 3 Wonders, you could have also just bought 8 Provinces.
Technical things first: I think you want this to say "worth 0 VP" somewhere; it's a VP card after all. Also, in order not to get a ridiculous stacking effect (unless that's what you want), you could maybe change the wording to: "At the end of the game, count the VP of all your VP card that are not Wonder. This is worth the amount of VP you counted."
