So, I was just reading
another thread from this section, and I noticed that some people
would like more simulation challenges, and I thought, "you know, I might not be good enough at the simulators to
win those things, but I'm good enough at posting topics to
make one."
And I remembered that there's been some
interest in Gardens on the forums lately, and some
interest in Silk Road, and even some interest in how they compare, and
what to do when both of them are on the board. And then I thought about all the cool mass-card-gaining options that have been added with Hinterlands, and how I've been wondering which of them work with Gardens, and all that stuff...so I says to myself, I says, "this sounds like a problem for the simulators!"

Kingdom (Provinces):
$6 - Border Village
$5 - Ill-Gotten Gains, Cache, Haggler
$4 - Gardens, Silk Road, Ironworks, Trader
$3 - Workshop
$2 - Hamlet
And here's my best effort so far:

Now, I'm no expert with the simulator, nor am I any better than decent at Dominion, so I'm probably setting the initial bar to beat pretty low...but I do love my Silk Roads and my Gardens, and I enjoy reading these simulation threads...so who wants to do it better?
Go ahead!
