The Ambassadors and Governors Discuss In The Throne Room With Embargo All Around.
http://councilroom.com/game?game_id=game-20120812-190227-b3f13942.htmlVery fun game. 6 Embargo's bot, 4 used. Governor and Ambass both on the board as well making for a hilarious game overall. I opened Ambass/Ambass while he opted for the inferior(in my opinion!) opening Ambass/Silver. We joked throughout the games as I called Ambass/Ambass 'the ultimate opening'.
then I got a TR and Embargo. The idea being that if I TR Embargo I get 2x the curses on 1 pile or 1 curse on 2
. I also could give him lots of cards through Ambass. All while making my deck smaller and more effective.
He went for another silver and then a potion. Seeing this and also seeing that Golem was the only card he could buy with potion, I of course used TR Embargo on Golem. He however did buy it. He later Embargoed the Governor's but still bought himself 1. I bought 2 more for a total of 3.
I moved into an Ambass/TR/Governor strategy accompanied by Embargo when I got less than $4. I would like to see what Archetype's thinking was this game. Didn't really understand what he was going for. o.O At the end of it, the score was 41^_^_^_^-11Archetype 7prov for me, 1 prov for him. For exactly what Victory cards we had and how our turns played out, please refer to the log.

Bidding In The Grand Market.
http://councilroom.com/game?game_id=game-20120812-191343-b4f7adaa.htmlIt was my turn to get destroyed. The GM's loved him, hated me.
I got 2/5 versus his 4/3. I went nothing/Embassy he went Steward/Silver. I have no idea whether I made the right choice, or if I should've gone with something like a Stables/Cache opening. My thinking was that I could discard all the coppers away to make room for GM, later I switched into a Stables strategy. Got 1 GM. 33 Archetype - 23 ^_^_^_^ 5prov-2prov

Counting The Money In The Bank, One
Haven Copper at a time!
http://councilroom.com/game?game_id=game-20120812-192308-8fa86b32.htmlNow this had me looking like this after.
Apparently Counting House/Bank is better than Haven/Bank. The log kinda says it all. We joked around, I was going "what is he doing O.O" when he opened Haven/Haven versus my Silver/Silver. I considered that I would go pure CH/Bank only getting a Gold when I had $6. I didn't give into CH until I got $5 draws 3 times in a row. 31 ^_^_^_^ - 30 Archetype (1 Point!)

I'll post the rest of the games along with my thoughts on them in a couple hours. GG's Archetype! That was fun! Hopefully you can give your own thoughts as well
