Goko Dominion Online / Re: Bizarre Bot Strategies II

« on: May 30, 2016, 10:37:44 pm »

Played two Forges in one turn.  Once to trash a Copper, gaining a Copper- the other time to trash nothing, gaining a Copper.

Same game, used Pathfinding on Bridge Troll, Rebuild, Harvest, Harvest again, Magpie, Harvest, Magpie, in that order.  Had 4 Magpies and never any of the other ones.

Trashed down to Raze, Guide, and two Silvers (with help from my Knights).  Bought Loan.

EDIT: Same game, trashed a Loan with a Loan, then bought a Loan.

The curses were long gone, but the bot kept buying Soothsayer anyway.  Its ninth gave me the win on piles.

Variants and Fan Cards / Re: Really bad card ideas

« on: May 23, 2016, 02:27:48 pm »

Freeze Mage
$8 Event

Your turn ends immediately.  Your opponent(s) may not play actions on their next turn(s).

Portal
Random Cost

When you gain this, instead gain a random card that could be in the Supply (but isn't necessarily) costing at least as much as the cost.

Heavy Infantry
$5 Action-Attack

+$3
Each opponent discards down to 3 cards in hand.

Aura Sensei
$4 Action

+1 Action
You may banish this or another card from your hand.  If you do, gain a Mystic or Heavy Infantry, putting it in your hand.

Variants and Fan Cards / Has anybody ever tried implementing a rotating supply like Ascension?

« on: May 19, 2016, 10:59:00 pm »

(If you don't play Ascension, the "kingdom" has only one card per pile, with a random new card dealt each time a card leaves the supply.)

I imagine the variance would frustrate many players here, but I like weird things like that once in a while.  Off the top of my head, you might run into mechanical issues with cards that interact with the supply, or copy things, but it wouldn't be TOO hard to implement on a basic level I'd think.  Thoughts?

I still haven't gotten the hang of Events.  I just bought Borrow before playing my treasure.

Is this the misclicks thread now?  I took a long break from Dominion and got into Ascension instead.  First game back was a 2/5 opening with Save.  I saved a Copper on my first turn.  There was a 4 I wanted, so I played one of my 6 Coppers and bought Save again.

Variants and Fan Cards / Trash from the Supply- any of these ideas work?

« on: August 05, 2015, 07:32:37 am »

Wasteland
$4 Victory-Action
+1 Action
You may trash up to three cards that are not victory cards from the supply.
-
Worth 1 VP for every 10 cards in the trash.

Judgment
$0* Action (I don't know how you gain it but there obviously shouldn't be multiples)
You may trash this card.  If you do, trash a pile from the supply.

Missionary
$3 Action
+$2
You may trash up to 3 non-victory cards from the supply.

I figured it was an interesting design space- aside from the obvious concept of accelerating the end of game, you can use it to deny a key card for somebody's engine, or take the sting out of junking attacks.  Trashing Provinces seems a bit too swingy, hence the ban on trashing greens.  I bet somebody's beat me to the idea, but oh well!

Play this card as if it was any card costing $5, because their songs are bettah.

Steam Sale $3 Action
While this is in play, all cards cost 75% less.  You can buy as many as you want, but you'll probably never even play most of them.  When you buy a card with this in play, you may gain a Trading Card.

Trading Card $1 Action
It's kinda fun to collect, you guess.

It takes the fun out of giving the bot Ruins when they voluntarily buy them.

Variants and Fan Cards / Is this balance-able?

« on: April 18, 2015, 07:58:52 am »

$6 Action
Do this as many times as you want: Trash a card from your hand.  If you do, +2 Cards.

I feel like it compares pretty well to Chapel and Altar, so 6 seems about right, but is the unlimited potential a bit much?  Does it being a late-game trasher offset the power level somewhat?  Would it be better off as a P-cost or Prize or Event or something?

Mission triggers at the end of YOUR turn, right?  I thought it was possible to pin people in multiplayer but I think I just misunderstood when it triggers.

The "upgrade chain" (Traveller type) cards changed a whole lot from the Chicago meetup, wow.

No kiddin', dang.  I think I personally liked the old version better but that's entirely because I like overly complicated things.

$4 Action
Reveal the top card of your deck.  Draw it, discard it, or trash it.
If you draw it, +2 actions.
If you discard it, +2 cards.
If you trash it, +$3.

I'm not sure of the balance on the last option, but I feel the first two are about right for a band of misfits kinda card.  For $4, you either get a Village, a nerfed Smithy, or a weird Trade Route.  None of those would probably be good at $4, but the flexibility (and being able to react to what the top card actually is) makes it worthwhile...I hope.

Silk Rat
Costs $4
Action, VP
Trash a victory card from your hand that is not an Estate.  Worth 1 VP for every 5 Victory cards in the trash (rounded down).

Okay, I'm catching up on this thread so this is super old, but I actually kinda like this concept, with some actual balancing.  Maybe something like

Silk Rat
$4 Victory
Worth 1 VP for every Victory card in the trash.  When you gain this, you may trash a card from your hand.

Even if there's no support on the board or from your opponents, you can get them to $4 Duchies with some commitment, and if there IS a way to get more green in the trash, they can become key cards.
