Dominion General Discussion / Question for Donald X. or anyone else in the know

« on: May 19, 2022, 03:17:43 pm »

I'm an OG Dominion player and thanks to the new STEAM version have gotten back into the game. Thanks for finally putting a version on STEAM complete with all expansions. I had no idea about the Seaside 2nd edition until yesterday when updating my game!

I found my way back to these forums and have noticed that there is a Prosperity 2nd edition coming soon. I'm very much looking forward to that. My question is - I thought there was talk years ago about an Alchemy 2nd edition? I know Alchemy is the black-sheep of the family; however, I've always liked it. Although, I like all the expansions! Are there plans to revisit Alchemy eventually? Is the plan to create 2nd editions for everything up to Adventures?

Thanks for any and all responses. Take care.

Goko Dominion Online / Question about selecting kingdoms?

« on: February 24, 2013, 01:53:22 pm »

So my wife and I have been playing Dominon on Goko and we are loving it. I paid the $45 for all the expansions and I know some people don't like the idea of paying 'twice' for something, but I think it's a steal. Anyway, I'm digressing. My question is this - is there a way to select just a few expansions when creating a random game? I've made several decks, so I get how to do that (I created all of the Kingdom Design Challenge Decks for example). What I would like to do is to create kingdoms with only the Base Set and Intrigue for example.

Thanks!

Dominion General Discussion / No more torturer for us!

« on: April 10, 2012, 12:50:00 pm »

First, a quick hello to the forum members! I'm a long-time gamer, who recently discovered Dominion, and I have been playing it as much as possible the past week or so. My fiancee and I usually play co-operative games, so this is the first competitive card game we have played. Anyway, I'm loving the game and am also enjoying this site as a supplement.

Last night we played a game that contained Torturer (we added Intrigue a couple of days ago) and I decided to go for a Shanty Town-Torturer combo deck.  I started with a Chapel to trash my estates and coppers and then purchased a couple of Shanty Towns and Torturers. My fiancee bought a Moat and some Barons. Not sure exactly what she was going for? Long story short - after several turns of being hit by torturers she was getting irritated. Finally, after a double torturer chain and my third province purchased she stormed off to bed. I was told in no uncertain terms that if I ever play that way again, then I'll have to find someone else to play with 

The thing is, she usually wins and was actually way ahead of me on strategy when we first got the game (and probably still is to be honest). While I was buying a bunch of different cards she would quietly buy a few Villages and Smithies. Then she would start churning out big hands and buy all the Provinces. Did I storm off to bed during one of those thrashings?! No 

The kid finally puts together a good game and now I'm in the doghouse!

I thought some people might enjoy this story and I wanted to introduce myself to the board. Thanks for reading!
