I hate the look of that, but hopefully some kind soul will pretty things up for me(again lol, but codes and stuff give me a headache.)

But the log isn't the point. I won, but I made several mistakes, only one of which I can easily think of though, giving them an easy 3 pile ending when they're so close on land. I'm wondering what you should actually do on this kingdom though, since there are 5 very influential 5s, and even two 6s that present a tough choice...plus you got Platinums and Taxman is better w/ those.

I think it's easy to rule out Trade Route, but other than that I mostly went w/ my gut I guess. You can never go wrong w/ Goons...or Mountebank...or Sentry...which do you get first lol?

Try putting the log in [ code ] tags next time?

Sentry / Silver into maybe one more Sentry if you get $5 on turn 3, otherwise one Mountebank and then Goons. No draw limits what you can really do.

Taxman sucks normally, but I guess you can't get rid of your Coppers here so it wouldn't be terrible if it didn't have so much competition for terminal space.

Something is terribly wrong with the log. The Taxman reveals card that the other person never bought. :P

Taxman seems terrible, you want to trash your treasure cards and not upgrade them. You can just load up on Bakers and maybe Merchants. Candlestick Maker seems also not great here as you have +Buy in Goons and it doesn't draw. And buying Mountebank turn 10 can't be right, definitely earlier.

Lot of hate for Taxman :( I don't really like it that much though, and I guess it makes sense. Sentry will get a lot of your Coppers w/o being terminal. Upgrading them is nice though, and I like the attack a bit, why I went for it. Mine is one of my favorites...more online for some reason, but w/e.

Good insight on Candlestick, I just think about how it doesn't eat up an action and gives a coin token, but w/ no card draw and the buy being irrelevant(largely, extra 1 VP from Goons,) it isn't good. I'll have to remember that, I have lost irl by getting too mans Sticks. but even w/ bad synergy w/ the board, is it worth getting on a 5/2 opening in this kind of board?

Baker is a pretty boring card imo, and i don't think it's worth getting many...even though we emptied the pile xd. But that starting token changes things so much. Should you always pay it on a 4 hand if there's a strong 5 you want early(sentry, Cultist, Witch, Mountebank, etc.,) or is it likely saving it will pay off?

It sounds like getting Mountebank early is very important...but sentry first(mayb 2.) That is more or less what my prior understanding of early cursers already was...but I got distracted by all the good cards. i mean Baker is better the more you're playing it, and you need Festival w/ these actions that are all great:/

No one mentioned Artisan, could someone give an opinion on that? I like it a lot and it seems pretty strong...Goons though. Kinda have to have those, and Colony games are longer too. is just ignoring Artisan a good idea? IMO kingdom should've had alt-VP and/or treasure instead of one of those terminals.

It's rare that you don't want to spend the Coin Token on your opening buys, especially on 4/3 you can usually a strong 5 on your opening. On 5/2 I just would get Silver over Candlestick Maker. Baker is nice because of Artisan. You want one Artisan and can then get all the Bakers and some Festivals (although not too many because it doesn't draw, you only need the +2 Actions)

Artisan CSM is an option on a 5(6)/2.

I don't think it's worth it. Artisan over Mountebank or Sentry delays the attack/trashing too much (it's pretty likely that you don't get to play it on the second shuffle), and CSM is just a stop card that you cannot afford.

Your deck will have enough stoppers already: Artisan, Mountebank, Festival*2 and Goons is already a 5-card hand. Anything above that reduces your reliability quite a bit.
