Title: Salvager - Peddler
Post by: Auroch on June 26, 2011, 12:16:04 am
Game 44714 (http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201106/25/game-20110625-210026-de7ae933.html)

I started this game with a plan of Fishing Village - Salvager into Wharves and probably some Peddlers with my extra buys. Then on turn 8, as my Wharf engine began to get rolling, I had a hand with both Salvager and Peddler. Which, during the action phase, costs 8. This realization made me feel clever.

After I did this twice, my opponent noticed and bought Salvagers to do the same, but at that point I had already pulled too far ahead. I Salvaged one last Peddler to buy the last 2 Provinces and win.

The final deck composition is also odd:
