Donald, but when is the NEXT expansion coming out after this one?

Ten is a nice round number.
Ten Dominions or ten expansions?

Might as well make it a dozen expansions.
More cards, with exponential complexity!

Might as well make it a Baker's dozen.

(ninja'd)

Totally unfair.  I typed up my response, but then went under a tunnel, so I couldn't post it until about 20 minutes later.

Hard times :(

Surely you went *through* the tunnel and not under it?  Unless you have some sort of drilling vehicle?

Solution: two tunnels

I thought the solution was moat.

Not necessarily return, they may have just stayed out from a previous expansion.

There has to be a ten year anniversary game. So there might not be as many game realeases, just Promo cards leading up to that. After the release of Adventures.

Personally, I would be disappointed if the 15th box is not codenamed D:XV.

And, of course, DXV has to pump these out until there are DXV kingdom cards.  ::)

Just went back and upvoted 5 or 6 of your more recent posts for this. So, so good.

They'd all have to be Dark Ages /Adventures size to come close to DXV kingdom cards by the D:XV expansion.

Thanks for explaining, I was fairly confused by your sudden interest in Prismata unit evaluation and Super Mario dorkery.

And your so-called point is?  ;)

More seriously, I would think there would have to be some additional major mechanics or game play changes to get enough useful design space for, what, 260 additional cards? I think Adventures only gets you like half-way there. And the physical randomizer deck would be like a Vegas-style shoe for Blackjack. And Hobby Lobby would have to start selling design supply steamer trunks for people to convert into Dominion storage.

But the really cool word "daunting" would get used a lot with respect to the game, so there's that.

My guesses:

The mats are adventure mats.  You somehow are assigned or take on an adventure/adventures and track their progress on the mat.

Completing adventures may even give you some sort of alternate victory point / game winning condition.

Event cards are cards you can 'play' any time, but they are always available for all players to play.  Perhaps all 20 event cards are available to always play, perhaps there is a more limited number like 4-8 available in one particular game determined at random.

The mats are miniature tablets that load up an instance of Goko and let you play through an Adventure.

The mats are actual mats to sit more comfortable, as each game with the new expansion will take much longer to play and set up. You'll be grateful.

The mats are a bunch of guys named Matt who will deal for you.  The cost of the expansion does not include food and lodging for the various Matts.

Mats are to sleep on, while you're out adventuring.

Not included are the 36 bags you'll need for carrying back to town all the axes and shortswords that are all that remain after you slay a bandit or lizardman

If DXV wrote the code, it might load.  Otherwise, I don't think he would allow a physical copy of the game to be sullied by the inclusion of a component that was only going to function part of the time.

...But all of them have been thoroughly pillaged. You've heard legends though of a fifth direction, as yet unspoiled, with its treasures conveniently gathered into troves.

Can't tell if coincidence or subtle joke.

I also see that Adventures will have tokens of some sort. Will these be a new design, or more of one of the existing kinds of tokens? Do you know how many will be included?

There are 60, 10 per player color, and they are chits.

All hail to whoever predicted player colors!

I also can imagine personal tokens in different colors that show your influence/ownership of stuff.

What, me? Oh my, you're too kind.
