You've always been a night person; lately you've even considered becoming a vampire. There are a lot of advantages: you don't age; you don't have to see yourself in mirrors anymore; if someone asks you to do something, you can just turn into a bat, and then say, sorry, I'm a bat. There are probably some downsides though. You always think of the statue in the town square, that came to life, and now works as the tavern barmaid. The pedestal came to life too, so she has to hop around. The village blacksmith turns into a wolf whenever there's a full moon; when there's a crescent moon, he turns into a chihuahua. That's how this stuff goes sometimes. Still, when you breathe in the night air, you feel ready for anything.

Errata: this game is perfect

[Hks]

Ok I'm super exited!!! YES YES YES
what else is there to say?

Seeing this post without comments, just the one time I happened to check by the forums for the last days' updates...

[Burning Skull]

Hooooorayyyy!!!!!
Wheeeee!!!!!
I knew it!!!!
Fuck this new job i just found!!!

[The_Wine_Merchant]

If there is not a card or an event or a landmark or something else rectangular that is named "Chihuahua" I am going to be very disappointed.

[yahas]

Does this mean what I think it means? Dual cards or some kind of night/day phase?

[werothegreat]

Dominion: Spooky edition

[Eran of Arcadia]

And here I had just figured out how to squeeze all my cards into the box.

[Tables]

Blurb isn't as funny as Hinterlands or Empires, 6/10 expansion will only buy three copies.

Also HYPE, super excited for another new expansion to be coming!

[Hockey Mask]

 
When?!

[werothegreat]

When?!

The RGG main page says October (appropriate), but it's all down to when copies are available and in stock.

I'm still holding out for "Squirt".

Make sure you save back about $45.

Any non-playtesters have ideas about the theme? I'm thinking of something along the lines of seasons, with cards that do different things at different times. Kind of like what yahas said.

[Witherweaver]

Any news on updated text centering for cards?

[majiponi]

So I've got another set to translate. Good news. Nocturne... hard to say in Japanese. How about Knockturn Alley?

You could try a less direct synonym, such as:
"Song of the Night" or "Call of the Night"

[schadd]

theory: this set will contain at least one method of administering curses

[chipperMDW]

I always hoped we'd see a horror-themed Dominion expansion someday, so this is great news!

I wouldn't pin it down to a specific date in October until we're close to the date. The goal is October though (for English) and we are on schedule.

Jay has also posted that the expansion is 500 cards.

From Wikipedia:

"A nocturne (from the French which meant nocturnal, from Latin nocturnus) is usually a musical composition that is inspired by, or evocative of, the night. Historically, nocturne is a very old term applied to night Offices and, since the Middle Ages, to divisions in the canonical hour of Matins."

EDIT: Google is telling me the Japanese translation is 夜行性.  Wikipedia says 夜想曲.

[Skumpy]

I wish this had been out before MF went down so we'd have some great campaign blurbs.

"Just what was it the witch Jezebel did to you the other day? Your skin is starting to turn pale, your mouth waters at the sight of blood, and you even refuse your baker's specialty garlic bread! You realize you need to get to the bottom of this before your kingdom turns on you."

Anyone has any idea where that info came from (copied from BGG's Dominion Nocturne entry):

"Dominion: Nocturne is the 11th expansion to Dominion. It has 500 cards, with 33 new Kingdom cards. There are Night cards, which are played after the Buy phase; Heirlooms that replace starting Coppers; Fate and Doom cards that give out Boons and Hexes; and a variety of extra cards that other cards can provide."

I know Jay said it's 500 cards, but what about the rest?

I don't know who posted it (probably Jay), but I can vouch for its accuracy.
