Title: I let my friend pick the entire kingdom...
Post by: Dylan32 on February 17, 2017, 07:30:28 pm
I played some Dominion Intrigue 1st edition with my friend IRL the other day.  This was the monstrosity of a board he chose.

This is a board that can ruin friendships...

What a truly terrible time that board looks like.

I would open swindler/silver into torturer BM and get the heck out of there.

Yeah I opened Swindler/Silver (in some order), but then hit an early 5 and beat him to saboteur, so I was actually able to build a somewhat functioning engine while preventing him from building anything.

I don't think I would buy Saboteur at all on that board, since terminal space is very limited and Saboteur doesn't do all that much.

Competitively, I probably wouldn't either. However, I knew all my friend was going to do was get all the attacks he could so I was just seeing if I could nip some of it in the bud. It worked.
