Love seeing board game reviews, good work.
I second these questions, and esp the ban list point - I HATED when people quitted games because they were losing, or they were unhappy that I was lucky enough to get a 5 copper hand (seriously, people resigned over that), and Ipersonally would choose to avoid playing those players again.
You know I actually had the thought of "does this belong in General Discussion?" before posting this here, and then I thought "nah, it's about Dominion! Of course it belongs in Dominion General Discussion.
What I've learned is that I should never underestimate F.DS's ability to take a thread about Dominion and turn it into a thread about as many different non-Dominion things as possible. It's a truly amazing skill we have here.
I asked my wife if this thread is everything she wanted, she said yes but I think she was just saying that to get me to shut up. She saw the thread before all of the pictures of moths were posted, though, so I don't think she'll want to see the updates.
Oh yeah, and this:they're dad to herYeah, my father has a hard time staying out of my personal space too.
It took me a while to realize why this post had so many upvotes then I realized I typed "dad" instead of "dead." This was actually done on purpose, I'm not sure anyone reading this thread knows the reference I was making. Anyone?
There you have it, amother thread derailed.
Pretty high, if you use the preset kingdoms.
it was a joke based on my avatar. You see, my avatar is a duke, so presumably, I am fond of duke (I am).Duke blows
Duke is an awesome card.
I figured it would be humorous if I feigned dislike of duke while my avatar indicated quite the contrary. Based on the number of upvotes I got, I was wrong.
I upvoted this but I'm not sure I really get it.Are you new here?

Welcome to the forums! Have you checked out the Dominion threads?

Chancellor isn't weak. Insta-shuffle is a thumbs up in my book. It's just that it's weak relative to other $3 terminals.I wouldn't even say that. I think it's fairly average compared to most $3 terminals (there really aren't many). The problem is it doesn't measure up to any other terminals - it's not the cost that's the issue, it's the fact it has to compete with all possible terminals. That's why most $2 are cantrip-like.
Would Chancellor be decent (almost too good maybe?) if it had a +Action?
At $?! Yeah, it would! That's like a Silver that can discard with little downside limited to edge cases.
