Games with Stonemason and Candlestick Maker are built-in 3-pile red alerts.
2. How do attacks affect Rebuild? I haven't played enough Rebuild games to have a good feel on this.I haven't either, but my guess would be that the best counters would be trashing attacks. Having your Rebuilds swindled into Mines or Counting Houses or whatever probably disrupts the strategy a bit.
Hm, Possessions interaction with coin-token cards is kind of interesting. The possessor gains the cards, but the possessed player gains the coin tokens. I wonder if there will be Guilds cards where the token gaining happens at times other than when you play the action (i.e., when you buy cards). There is no real harm in playing Baker during your Possession turn as you can just spend the coin tokens, so it's not as bad as the VP tokens. But you would have to avoid a card that says "While this is in play, when you buy a card, gain a coin token" or something to that effect.
Its not that new, same thing happened with VP chips.
Oh, I think I get it. There were two cards that started with Ta, so the first and third letters were used. I'm guessing Tavern and Tax Collector. If so, I have two fan cards to rename.Tavern seems like a likely candidate for the village.
It looks like these coin-gainers are going to like Poor House. Actually, I said that backwards - PH like coins, since they are not in your hand, they don't count agaist you.I guess, but are the coin tokens really any stronger than any other virtual money here, like Peddler for instance? I guess it's pretty nice that owning any coin tokens makes any PH turn a guaranteed $5, given that this is a considerable step up from the usual guaranteed $4.
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure you can spend your opponent's tokens.just spend all your tokens at the turn you opponent buys possesion and buy a province or something and you are good to go.
Yeah but that still means you start losing the utility of them after the possessing starts. The whole point of having them in the first place is to be able to save them. But with a Possession in your opponent's deck saving them is a liability. It's not as bad as having an Ambassador or a Masquerade but it's still going to hurt.

Or Silvers into Conspirators orI once played a game in which I tried the old Masquerade pin in a unique way.Scouts-villages. And random cards into Duchies in the end-game.
The problem was, there was no handsize decreaser. My opponent completely ignored it and steadily built up to take the first.
By that time I had my deck down to KC-KC-KC-KC-Masq and started chomping at his deck.
When he had nothing left I spent, Copper, Copper, Copper, Remake.
Once I had the Remake, my opponent resigned.
Oh that's just the epitome of evil.
Maybe it is too early in the morning, but I am not making the logical leap here - what were you going to do - Remake KC into Provinces? He already had 4; had you been able to steal/trash any of his already?
Key words: "Once he had nothing left"

But maybe Rabid or Mic Qsenoch would join as training for their Base Round 5 of Gokodom 1.
(Assuming they still don't have sets as noted in Tournament Spreadsheet.)
Atm, they're playing Base + Nobles.
(chapel, moat, village, woodcutter, thief, council room, market, witch, adventurer, nobles)
If you've ever played Amun Re, the icons that represent the cards look like cheese wedges to me so that's what I call them.
I have also heard them called wedges, particularly when they aren't being used for draw, "+3 VPs for seven wedges." That's also what we call the tokens in Trivial Pursuit.
Funny. We use the german expression Käseecken (which means cheese wedges) for Trivial Pursuit tokens, too. Cheese is international.
Look at the can of worms I opened...
Munchkin is fun if you aren't actually trying to play a game. It's basically a hilarious multiplayer game of rock paper scissors. Which is great for people who don't really care about strategy. What i've found with people is that they only play the strategy games I play once, and then they don't come back to it, or if they do it is much later and it becomes impossible to actually become good at a game. But munchkin is fine for that crowd. So I have a copy of it to play with people who aren't interested in learning all the intricacies of a game, they just want to do something "fun".
Main reason I don't like Munchkin and Killer Bunnies is that in every game I played (granted, 2 or 3 of each), at least one player got killed, tried to enter the game again, drew something ridiculous that killed him again, and so on, for a significant part of the game. Basically, that player was just waiting for other players to finish their turns, after which he couldn't do anything in his own turn, rinse, repeat. Even though eventually the player will get out of the rut, and even have a chance of winning, it pretty much just means that this player is WAITING rather than PLAYING through (part of) the game. Not too much fun, if you ask me. I'd much rather play Bohnanza, Take5!, Pickomino, heck even a kids game like Chicken Cha Cha Cha: at least everybody is actually PLAYING through the whole game.
I have the impression Goko won't get the cards before official release this teame, probably due to leaking them for DA.
I think they said on getsatisfaction theyre gonna implement it after the physical release.
https://getsatisfaction.com/goko/topics/guilds-1mh3vpQuoteWe will have Guilds too and the only reason there would be a delay is if there are other important projects whose releases need attention at the same time (e.g. mobile/tablet platforms.) But ideally, it will be online shortly after the physical game.
If they had the information already, they'd be aiming for a synchronous release
The whole "but you are the government" got me thinking; If you're the king, why can't you just take all the stuff you want?You are a monarch, like your parents before you, a ruler of a small pleasant kingdom of rivers and evergreens. Unlike your parents, however, you have hopes and dreams! You want a bigger and more pleasant kingdom, with more rivers and a wider variety of trees. You want a Dominion! In all directions lie fiefs, freeholds, and feodums. All are small bits of land, controlled by petty lords and verging on anarchy. You will bring civilization to these people, uniting them under your banner.
Why? It was just a cheesy pun.
I think it was a pretty gouda one.
I think we should wait to say more until we find a cheddar one.
Guys any way weslicecut it, these jokes stink.
