« on: January 25, 2018, 09:10:56 am »If Mountain's gift wasn't bad enough, Bandit Camp turns it into a curse.
Do you mean Bandit Fort?
I was thinking so hard about how this would possibly make sense. But I knew if I asked, someone would make me feel sheepish by showing me how obviously bandit camp turns into a curse. Now my brain can relax.
I took a huge risk that that wasn't the case.

Impressive, usually no one can see the 5rd card any more than the 1nd.

Well, I managed to get Moon's Gift twice in one turn with an empty discard pile. This after pulling Miserable from my first Cursed Village.

Ideally you'd have playtesters representing a range of skills, otherwise how would you know if bad players find a card too difficult or complicated?

Dominion General Discussion / Re: Tom Vasel Nocturne Review
« on: December 18, 2017, 09:06:36 am »
I'm a relatively experienced player - I suspect I've played more games than the average Dominion owner, and I visit multiple online forums to learn more about the game.
I'm hardly an expert. I play casually, going with what looks fun to me, rather than what is calculated to give me the best odds to win based on simulations or whatever.
Nocturne looks really cool and I can't wait to play it.

If you think about it, the first guy to milk a cow must have been weird.
If you think about it, when pregnant women go swimming they're basically human submarines.
If you think about it, we all have a life expectancy of 2 minutes that resets every time we breathe.

« on: December 02, 2017, 09:16:25 am »Rouge/Lookout: Eventually, you want to trash your Lookout, but if Lookout is the only card in the trash costing from 3 to 6, you have to gain it back instead of doing the attack.
Not to mention, a lookout wearing rouge would probably be easy for the enemy to see instead of being well-hidden the way a good lookout would be.
I think it's not all that hidden, towering from that ship in the middle of the ocean.
It's surprisingly easy to sneak up on an iceberg without being detected.

The crime in question is "not everyone has Nocturne even though they're supposed to," which is particularly heinous.

That's my excuse for losing so many 4 player games to my stepmother-in-law, who does things like open Duchy/Squire and needs to be repeatedly reminded that she doesn't have an unlimited number of actions.

Dominion: Nocturne Previews / Re: Dominion: Nocturne Text Spoiler
« on: November 16, 2017, 09:35:39 am »Guardian will make starting 2/5 very good in some kingdoms. Turn 2 Goons. Turn 2 BV + Power 5.Guardian is a Lighthouse you can't ever draw dead. It seems almost strictly better, except for cards that care about if something is an Action.
Not that anyone was clamoring for a strictly better Lighthouse, I guess.
Lighthouse gives a coin this turn and the next. Guardian gives a coin only on the next turn.
Okay, the real lesson is that Lighthouse and Guardian aren't really the same and also that I don't know the cards nearly as well as I thought, even Seaside, which was my first expansion.

« on: November 16, 2017, 09:33:39 am »That view turns out to be part of today's cultural bias against women.
I'm no expert, but I suspect at least some of this is more "today's cultural bias against the past, especially the Middle Ages" than "today's cultural bias against women." As in, the Past was Bad, so of course they treated women terribly, not like in today's enlightened age.
