I used Captain, Throne Room, and Inventor to gain Dame Natalie with Dame Natalie (before my action phase):

why does this happen?  You played dame natalie so u already had her right? So how can she gain a card (herself) not in supply?

He didn't already have Dame Natalie; it's not clear from the log screenshot, but he used Captain to play Dame Natalie in the supply.

Ill-Gotten-Gains/Monastery. Use IGG's Copper-to-hand ability to boost your buying power, then get rid of the Copper via Monastery's trashing (and thin your deck even further, if you actually bought something this turn).

And if you happened to have Guildhall, it's practically a Gold

Stampede/Inheritance/Getting a 5 on your opening hand. Uh, holy crap.
Yeah Opening 5/10 is pretty sweet

5/7 rather, since you only start with 7 Coppers.  But more to the point, it allows you to buy Inheritance on Turn 2!  Which, depending on what Action cards are in the kingdom, could be a huge advantage

I had a Rats + Seaway + Tower board yesterday with a 5/2 split. My plan was to Seaway a Rats, get 20 Rats asap, then churn through the Curses and finally the Coppers, getting four or sometimes five junk cards per turn and the last 21 Coppers in one fell swoop. I lost to Wharf/Money, but it was quite fun. I'm pretty sure I would have won if it would have been Tomb instead of Tower. Or a weaker money enabler.

Just had a game with Militia + Way of the Chameleon + Lost Arts.  Putting the +1 Action token on Militia made it absurdly overpowered - a Lab that's also a discard attack!

Animal Fair + Innovation when you have at least one empty Supply pile is a good way to get a quick +$4 with the sacrifice of a cheap Action card without even losing your Buy

Priest/Bonfire! (with +Buy).

Had $7 going into the buy phase, bought Bonfire, trashed a couple of Pearl Divers or something, and bought my Province.

animal fair toll is also a nice way to get 2 coins for a dead action in your hand.

The synergies here are obvious.  But this is what happens when you choose bishop over chapel in a game with market square.  The harem/crop rotation synergy helped too.  But that deck was pretty stacked at the end.

With 2 cost reducers in play with Rogue (in this case 2 highways) you can trash opponents Provinces (and then yank em bank from the trash)

Having Cathedral, Squire, and Cultist on the same board was fun. Even when I didn't have a junk card in hand to trash, I could trash a Cultist to start my turn with free draw, or a Squire to replace the Cultist I trashed last turn.

The deck of Monument - Monument - Monument - Monument - Monument, with Toil available.
5 VP/turn.

Admittedly that's not what I did. My deck was a sluggish money deck where villages and terminals never meet each other. But with toil, the agony of drawing a hand of 4 or 5 monuments is relieved.

Had a game with Way of the Mouse as Beggar + Monastery + City Quarter. So, I bought several City Quarters and some cheap Actions plus two Beggars, then I would just use my CQ's to draw a lot of cards, and give me plenty of Actions, then I'd play a few Beggars, use the Coppers to buy a Province, then use my Monastery to trash the Coppers. Ended up with nearly the entire Copper pile in the trash by the end of that game!

from the semi interesting thread, though I actually think this is more than mildly interesting by a wide margin.

Treasurer + Secret Cave + Capitalism can completely empty the Wish pile in one buy phase by trashing the lamp and recovering it from the trash over and over.

If you play Hermit and use Way of the Frog; you can gain a Madman and not lose the Hermit. And do this every turn.

Ah, I remember the days when Hinterlands were out and we looked at Cache and were excited "hey they look interesting when you have a watchtower!"

Nowadays, Cache is more remembered as the second worst $5 card. But that our second worst $5 card still has its time to shine really speaks about our game's strengths.

If you have a watch tower in hand, Cache is a gold for 5$, which is often significantly worse than other things you could buy for 5$. It has to be a board where other 5$s are weak, and you have to have the watchtower in hand, and have exactly 5$, and then the cache is like pretty good.
