Oh hey it's been a while but here we go again

Okay, I didn't catch that Maintenance Worker was a real card until I read Conflicted Force Wielder. Then I realized that Conflicted Force Wielder looked very much like City Quarter, and it was only a small step from there to realize that Maintenance Worker was actually Engineer...

That is indeed the point.   Also maybe don't quote all of the images in a new post?

More Game of Thrones spoilers...

There's probably a "losing at Dominion" meme in the Cersei/Qyburn conversation...

"There's the Duchy pile, we can still win."
"She's already bought all of them..."

I have my entire deck in play, and all the cards are Actions.  I then buy one card, and trash everything in play.  How?

I have no cards in my deck.

I have no cards.  They are all Actions.

Let's Discuss ... / Re: Let's Discuss Base Set Cards: Mine

« on: May 10, 2019, 12:14:57 pm »

I like Mine.

I think giving mine +1 action would be a better way of making it a decent albeit not great card.  As is it really kind of sucks.

We already went down that rabbit hole with Rebuild let's not do that kind of shit willy nilly again

No +Action would make Rebuild completely unplayable.

...why am I defending rebuild again...?

Hard disagree.  I've played many games where I go Rebuild/BM, and maybe once if at all each game do I play multiple Rebuilds in a turn.

I think our wiki editors are trying to tell us something:

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Neat card interactions that were useful in the game you found them in.

« on: April 30, 2019, 10:06:27 pm »

Lurker + Pouch

With the right split, you can open with 3 Lurkers, which may or may not be good, but is definitely neat.

I mean, this is the case with any .  Three Pages!

I just wish the time heist was the entire movie.  I could have done without the big battle at the end, honestly.

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Project - card parallels

« on: April 17, 2019, 10:51:38 pm »

A +1 Card project would be an insta-buy - you'd always get it.  At least with Barracks you sometimes don't get it in Village-heavy games.

Rules Questions / Re: Trashing an Estate for Pirate Ship

« on: April 12, 2019, 11:34:53 am »

It depends on when Pirate Ship is checking if it's a Treasure.  If it checks "on-trash", then yes, you should get a Coin token.  If it checks the card after it's been trashed (i.e., when the card is no longer player B's and thus no longer an Inherited Action and thus no longer a Treasure), then you would not get a Coin token.

I think the problem with "milling provinces" is I don't think there's an established, orthodox term for it that everyone uses.  I mean, for fuck's sake some people still say "splitter" instead of "village"

Are there any new tabletop games from the past year or so (that you haven't made) that you've really liked?

All the good projects are too low, and Fortune should not be dropping.  My top 5 were Donate, Fortune, King's Court, Citadel, and Canal.

Sir Bailey had the second copy of Dominion, and took the name Castle Builder to heart, changing Curse to Rubble and having those attacks be siege weapons. I considered Rubble but stuck with Curse.

Well, Catapult came out eventually

I fixed the order.  Thanks GendoIkari for doing the work so I just had to copy/paste.

No, now it's broken. Tracer, Chris is me and Xyrix had it that way, why can't they be allowed to display it the way they want to? One person has a problem with it (Gendo) and now it has to change? What?

Sorry.  I got multiple requests to change it.  I assumed that everyone did it countdown style - because all the other lists I had seen were like that - and assumed that these guys got it wrong. 

I was mistaken.  I won't do it again.

Yes, it was a conscious decision by my fellow authors and I, who agreed that we prefer to read the lists in that order. Since the alternative version is available courtesy of Gendo, I will revert the edits.

Then why did you start with the bottom third? If you prefer seeing the highest ranked card first, why didn't you start with the top third?

I really do not understand your preference. Building up to the top card is much more dramatic and interesting. With your way, it's just "oh that's the winner congrats wharf" and it's anticlimactic.
