Recommendations:

As far as i know, there are not more than a total of 2 Landmarks, Events, Projects etc. in a game recommended. That imo means, you couldn't take i.e. 1 landmark, 1 event and 1 project, because its a total of 3 things? Did shelters, heirlooms, boons and hexes count to this too?

You can do whatever we want, but yes we recommend no more than two landscapes.

Shelters / heirlooms / platinum / colony don't interact with this; they're just other setup possibilities. Boons and hexes super don't have anything to do with this.

Hi there,

am i right, that in tournaments, a Kingdom can even consist the old cards like thief, secret chamber...

I never played on Such tournaments, so who decides, what cards are being used? Judges etc?

For online tournaments, no 1st edition removed cards like thief, secret chamber, etc. are ever used because they are not even in the online client.

For online and in-person tournaments, whoever is organizing the tournament decides what cards to use and what cards to not use. For instance, Adam Horton has set up many in-person tournaments in the past and has a banlist of cards he doesn't use (presumably because of fairness, swinginess, and set-up difficulty): http://adamhorton.com/flog/dominion-running-an-irl-tournament/ (see the "II. Format" section). Sometimes there is a focus on certain sets; a tournament now would likely focus on the new Menagerie expansion, for example.

If the question is if the removed cards are somehow officially discontinued from the game of Dominion, the answer is no. If someone with the first edition of Dominion or Intrigue wants to shuffle in all their cards with any other expansion (or even cards from the second editions), that still counts as playing Dominion. And using those cards in a tournament would still be considered a Dominion tournament.

I'd say whether or not 1st edition cards can be used is probably a decision for the organizers, rather than the arbiters.

I just noticed this "rules clarification" for Village Green on the wiki:

"If you play Vassal and discard Village Green, you can react with Village Green to play it, and then Vassal lets you play it too. Vassal is discarded from play that turn, regardless of whether Village Green stays out."

Does this mean that if you discard Village Green with Vassal, you can play Village Green twice?

Yes. This is the exactly what Donald X. was referring to in the secret history.

The wording changed late to get rid of a poor Village Green interaction (that Vassal has).

Village Green can cause weird stuff. I think it's the only way you can play a card that is shuffled into your deck. Discard two Village Greens with an empty deck, then play the first one, shuffle, then play the second one.

Why does Vassal get discarded at the end of the turn if Village Green stays out? I'm guessing something related to the stop-moving errata?

At least online, Village Green has received errata so that's no longer the case; it now requires reveal just like Tunnel.

There has never been the case that Vassal or similar cards cause Durations to stay; only Throne Room variants. There were some changes to the underlying rule though.
But I don't think the stop-moving errata could be relevant in any case, since it only dealt with moving covered cards in your discard pile.

Wow, I see this version in the Wiki, but I haven't seen anything about it in this forum, in the BGG forum or in the ShuffleIT forum. I assume that it's an official errata. I released the latest version of my rules document in August, and really wish I had known this, because now I have information there that is actually wrong. It's pretty disappointing that neither Donald or Stef posts about it anywhere, or at least lets me know.

EDIT: I googled into this page, which also lists Oracle as another secret errata: http://dominionleague.org/resources

Ah, I just mis-remembered the cards that play duration cards rule.

Yes, thanks. I searched here for "Village Green", but must have done something wrong. That thread is recent, and it seems this errata was already implemented (back in March if the wiki is to be believed). And there is also Oracle. As I said, it's bad that there are errata going on in the dark. Somehow it gets to the wiki, and the Dominion League people, but is not mentioned as an official errata, and it's disappointing that nobody cares to even inform me, since my rules document is meant to be the one place with all the correct rules and rulings.

Two cards left, play oracle to reveal 2 village greens, discard. You play one, and now the other is shuffled into the deck.

Check it out in the wiki. "+2 Cards" means it interacts with Way of the Chameleon; "draw 2 cards" means it doesn't.

I'm assuming it's a Discord thing; Donald has mentioned a few times that more discussion takes place on Discord than here now.

I never really took notice of the second edition wording change; but I really feel like first edition was simpler and cleaner.

The Oracle and Village Green changes aren't official errata yet; they will be when there are physical copies of those cards with those wordings. For Hinterlands that should be coming up (and there are more rewordings there, but only one other functional change: Trader will exchange the card for a Silver).

Stef wanted these two changes in advance and I said sure.

Okay. So this is different from the errata and rules changes from last September then? Because those were officially announced several places even though the physical cards were not out.
