You can name the ace of spades if you just want to draw next 3 cards, right?

Sage skips the Vineyards-#sober4life
Quote from: Donald X. from The Secret History of the Alchemy Cards
Vineyard: This was originally in the main set! And Gardens was in Alchemy (with the costs switched)

After a while though, it becomes eerily clear that the dominant religion in Dominion-Land definitely isn't catholicism; when the Chancellor, Baron and Coppersmith wander into the Chapel, only to disappear forever...At least they are properly buried there because the local Graverobbers can easily find them*.

If you first send your Scout to explore the surroundings, you'll usually have a better idea which way to go at Crossroads.

Variants and Fan Cards / Re: "Fixing" cards that you don't like
« on: May 22, 2013, 02:52:45 am »
Here's my "fix" for Scout:
Scout
Action 4$
+1 Action
Reveal the top 4 cards of your deck. Put the revealed Victory cards into your hand.
If none of the revealed cards were victory cards, put one of them into your hand.
Put the rest back in any order
So it's always at least a cantrip.

Um, yeah, I missed that. I think it is because the face is your meme is much too well-drawn and realistic to be Scout.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Translations
« on: April 07, 2013, 11:03:40 am »
More finnish things:
-Forge doesn't say cost in coins
-Alchemist says: "when you discard this...". No during your clean-up phase clause.
-Fairgounds is called "Markkinat" which means market or fair. The correct translation would be "Huvipuisto" and it's actually called this way in Hinterlands rulebook once in one of the 10 recommended sets.
-Trading post doesn't have "if you do"
-For some reason Tactician gives "+1 ostos". It means "+1 buy" and normally it's "1 osto". It's means basically the same but still amuses me

Wrong. This is not the case when you've drawn your deck.

Dominion meets the real life!
This shows that the things that are usually bad in Dominion, could be very helpful in real life.
In real life this makes no sense but in Dominion it does
