Hmph. Maybe innovationstrategy would be a bit more difficult then.

Could somebody with knowledge drop it here? What does Fermentation do? What does Bicycle do? Where can I find a database of cards?

Fermentation's an age 2 yellow that lets you draw a [2] for every 2 leaves on your board.

Bicycle's an age 7 green that lets you exchange your hand with your score pile.

I wish I knew of a database of cards, though. I just remember those ones.

The key is that Fermentation usually doesn't draw you very good cards because it's drawing [2]'s. But in games where the [2]'s and up empty, it becomes a stupidly strong card if you have good leaves (in my game it was "Draw five [10]" at the end of the game). It further snowballs if you have Reformation to tuck it all (a simulation of Industrialization, albeit much earlier in the game).

The FAQ on BGG has a list of cards for the base set:

Wow echoes is up
Thank you

But can I have the chart showing how many of each icon each player has back?
Thank you

edit: nevermind...... I found where it is, but still hard because my monitor is too small lol

Sweet game, thanks!

Ran into a freeze here, he used industrialization to tuck a bunch of cards including the first 8, then the game froze when he dogma'd canning. http://innovation.isotropic.org/gamelog/201301/14/game-20130114-151155-5f843836.html

Perfume allows the attacker to choose, rather than the defender, amongst the valid targets.

Can someone link the innovation AI? I can't find it on BGG.

After a brief attempt I am yet again reminded that "Innovation" is a terrible term to search for.

rrenaud · « **Reply #85 on:** January 20, 2013, 03:14:52 pm »

If I ever make a board game, it's going to be called something like quiggly beans.

Not tested but is this what you are looking for?

Just played my first game on isotropic and this implementation is fantastic. thanks Dougz!

popsofctown · « **Reply #88 on:** January 21, 2013, 07:18:45 pm »

I'm hoping this is the best bug report thread: Dice does not reveal the card with a bonus that triggers the meld.

Been playing this a bit, kind of want a leaderboard now

.

dougz · « **Reply #90 on:** February 11, 2013, 09:49:07 pm »

http://innovation.isotropic.org/leaderboard/

Only 2-player games are counted, as it doesn't seem well-defined how to rank the non-winners for more than 2 players. It's using the same Trueskill parameters that I have for Dominion; not clear that those are right for Innovation. Also, the ranks won't show up on the server itself yet (i.e., in the lobby).

That is ... quite a gap between Hideyoshi/yaron and everyone else.

popsofctown · « **Reply #92 on:** February 12, 2013, 12:10:19 am »

No! My suckitude is quantified

And I have played way too much innovation already..

eHalcyon · « **Reply #93 on:** February 12, 2013, 12:58:58 am »

I bet if I start playing now I could make it into the top 200 within a day.

How long ago does this leaderboard reflect? I've played a dozen games or so, but not within the last couple weeks.

I assume it's the same as the dominion leaderboard, if you haven't played in a while you'll drop off it.

It's built with all eligible games since Jan 1. (2-player where both players are logged in.) Like the Dominion one, if you don't play for a week you disappear from the board (though your stats are still known if you show up and play again.)

Ozle · « **Reply #97 on:** February 15, 2013, 11:53:32 am »

Everytime I have a look at this game to see if anyone I know is on for a game... there's not. Dougz, can you sort that out please?

popsofctown · « **Reply #98 on:** February 17, 2013, 12:52:15 pm »

It seems increasingly active to me, maybe you should be less picky about who you play with?

On a separate note, how would people feel about Oars, Feudalism, and shared Masonry (can't think of any others, in base) being a choice even when you have only one option? The strategical implications on Oars, especially, are notable. If someone has two fives in hand and you hit them with Oars, and isotropic autoselects the card, then you know it's not worth it to use it again.

I agree, there is quite some info leakage as the game is implemented right now.
