I don't think Anna is useless even with Chapel on the board. You trash faster, and then you can trash Chapel. It's bad, but I think I'd still buy it over Saboteur.
Yeah, being able to trash your trashing card is pretty huge.
Why?
Don't let any punk kids trash that!
Leave the card in
front of you until the Clean-up Phase of the last turn in which it
does something (discard it before drawing for the following turn).
So if the card says "Now and on your next turn," discard it during
the Clean-up phase of your next turn
I think Caravansery is stronger than Caravan in general, and certainly in the best case. Because it's not a Duration you can play it every turn, which makes it much more useful for drawing your deck.Except you can't, because it has effects after you have discarded your cards so it won't be discarded from play the turn you play it. Being or not being a Duration doesn't have anything to do with it, all official cards that behave like that just "happen" to be Durations because it makes them harder to accidentally discard too early.
I'll admit that my standard for what constitutes a scum slip are probably quite high as well (I tend to think honest mistakes by town are fairly common as well-but I haven't looked at other games to see if I'm right about that).Oh, and about this, in the end, are you more willing to lynch a newbie who could be showing signs of being scum but could also be a town player who's just making honest mistakes, or an experienced player who doesn't appear to be scum at all? At this point, I'm not saying that either approach is wrong, I'm just curious.
Well, we can always just collectively decide to lynch an experienced player just because they're experienced of course, but I believe that would be a bad idea.
Certainly at the moment. We have ~10 days to try and get a slip. And we should try to get one. I certainly don't anticipate making a serious vote that could lead to a lynch until at least half of that time is up to give us the time to hear multiple times from everybody. We need information as town, and we need time to get that.
But I'm trying to think ahead to a scenario where there isn't an obvious scum slip. We still need to work out where to put our votes. I'll admit that my standard for what constitutes a scum slip are probably quite high as well (I tend to think honest mistakes by town are fairly common as well-but I haven't looked at other games to see if I'm right about that).
At the end of the day, we need a lynch (for the informational value of the flip) and in the absence of other info, I will want to put my vote on someone whose danger as mafia outweighs their helpfulness as town. That's a tough judgement to make, as people strong in one class are likely to be strong in the other, but at the moment, I'm counting on inexperience mafia making a big mistake or two along the way if they don't have experienced hands guiding them. And I trust us as town to see those big mistakes even without experienced hands guiding us (especially, since we won't be able to fully trust their guidance). So I see the vets as dangerous and helpful, but with more danger.
All of this is very much subject to change, given discussions over the next 10 days, of course, but it's where my head is now.
xxpittip -> xxputtup -> xxpushups -> pushups
vote: pushups
On another note, I don't really like the Goko auto-kick (it doesn't even help against slow rollers really).
So I don't think that ADK or Andrew are any more likely than Hugo to be mafia, but rather that they are more dangerous if they are mafia, and hence we should give stronger consideration to voting them early.
Normally, you gain two cards in your opening leaving you with a twelve card deck after two turns.Baker, Stonemason, Nomad Camp, Poor House, + bunch of random cards
In a solo game, choose your kingdom and shuffle luck to obtain a sixteen card deck after two turns.
well, you already spent your PotionGood point.
Maybe transmute could use "When you buy this, +1 buy."Well, Trader, Goons and new version of Transmute is still a 3-card combo, not very likely to come up unless you deliberately choose your kingdom to have those cards in it. If you absolutely have to avoid infinite combos, then it's out of the question, but otherwise it's probably not a problem.
Edit: Actually, that leads to weird interactions with trader and goons and merchant guild. How about, "When you buy this, if this is the first Transmute you bought this turn, +1 buy."
Careful LastFootnote, KingZog3 is gonna get jealous.I read that as KingZong3 first.
Okay, so I have tried creating an account on Twitch and it says the username Beyond Awesome has already been taken!!!! Even Beyond Awesomeness has been taken! Who are these evil people taking my username and then taking the username I was going to take because someone took my username?Awaclus was taken too. Then I did some research and found out that I had taken it myself, but because it was a Justin account and I didn't do anything about it in time, now it's unusable.
I am about to go with the name BeyondTheAwesome.
Edit: Never mind. I realized I could use an underscore.
