Woodcutter is there, sometimes you get it for the +buy and sometimes because you want virtual money. I think thats all there is to say about it.

Let's Discuss ... / Re: Let's Discuss Base Set Cards: Festival
« on: April 16, 2016, 06:38:10 am »
I think Festival is a nice village, where the main drawback is that its not giving +1 card. That makes it a lot harder to kick of your engine sometimes, especially when there is only weak trashing. The +buy is really nice though, and it works well with draw to x or anything that wants virtual coin and actions, like minion, tactician, conspirator etc. Also nice with vineyards.

Throning a Feast almost feels like cheating, it's so good.

Opening Feast just to get the $5 is only good in some cases.
Everyone likes to hate on Silver, but it's a pretty decent card and its longevity often wins out over Feast.

I mean, yes you can open Feast/Silver to make sure you get *insert favorite junker/attacker*, but as you're likely to get attacked yourself over the course of the game, having one extra Silver can really help get more of those $5s in the long run.

I remember a game where feast and cultists where on the board (and no other 4s), I considered opening Feast but decided against it and went for Silver/Silver. My opponent got Feast/Silver and that proved to be inferior, since the additional Silver really helped me in conjunction with the cultists

I wonder if we will ever see a village attack card?

Of course you could also just say screw it and buy dame molly.

Of course you could also just say screw it and buy dame molly.

But in that case you might as well still buy the Border Village, so...

I guess youre right, this should make border village the Best village since it can gain (almost) all the other villages :D

Case closed

134
I think you cant really answer this question in a vacuum. The different types of villages bring with them different types of bonuses and which one is Best for your engine on a given board depends heavily on the cards in that kingdom

I think a question that could be answered a bit better would be something along the lines of "which village is useful most often". Fishing village, border village and wandering minstrel would be good contenders for that i think. The First because of its cost, duration effect and synergy with draw to x, the second because you can gain engine pieces along with your village and also pull some nice Tricks with it, the third because of the reliability it adds.

Of course you could also just say screw it and buy dame molly.

There isn't a power creep, more like a complexity creep.

But this is not a bad thing, because later expansions are mostly bought by experienced players and they do like the added complexity.

I agree with this. I have only played adventures once irl and apart from that followed the card discussions here and seen a bit of adventures on the developers build on Adams stream. I feel like adventures cards open up a lot of possibilities on every board they are in and that is a good thing

This card is just really Bad. Im trying to imagine a scenario where it does anything useful for you but there just doesnt seem to be one. If youve trashed your coppers and want to draw your treasures theres probably another and better source of draw that also lets you draw your Action cards. If you havent trashed your coppers then its even worse.
Also the fact that it is Terminal makes it really weak since there is usually better payload for your engine that competes with it for Terminal space and as noted before in an engine youre gonna draw stuff ( including your treasures) anyway

This seems really nice to enable strong draw even if theres no trashing. Obviously nice tricks available with menagerie. I hope they get adventures out soon so i can play with those cards rather than just speculate. Well, it is almost end of March after all :)

I havent played with it but those are my thougts:
Compared to throne room, the downside is opportunity cost if there are good 5s around that you want to use it on. The upside is of course that colliding it with that 5 you want to play is a lot easier as you can just wait and have a guaranteed collision as long as it sits on your tavern mat. Being able to just call it after playing the desired Action seems really strong so i dont know where to Put this card. I think its strong but its hard to say more without having played with it

I want a card that has 3 types

Like an Action-Attack-Knight?

How about Action-Attack-Knight-Victory?

I guess that also has 3 types technically.

Card prediction:
Shelter-action-attack-knight-victory
Shelter-action-attack-knight-victory-reaction-treasure

Shelter-action-attack-knight-victory-reaction-treasure-reserve

Has anyone bought ducats without using PayPal? In MFs ducat store there is also the Option of just entering your credit card number and expiration date but they dont even ask for the security Code, card owner or card Type. Plus Firefox says the connection to the site is not fully encrypted and it doesnt supply ownership Information ( they have a certificate but the organizations Name is not Part of it).

I dont know if i just want to enter my credit card Data into that site. Or are those options also Part of the PayPal payment process? Im confused  ???

Let's Discuss ... / Re: Let's Discuss Adventures Cards: Ratcatcher
« on: March 14, 2016, 10:31:46 am »
I have never played with this card so this is pure speculation. I think a nice comparison is trade route which also trashes a single card (and gives you a buy but that buy normally doesnt help much early on). Trade route is slow and doesnt give you any benefit as long as there are no tokens on the trade route mat. Rat catcher is even slower but the upside is that it doesnt hurt your hand when you play it as its a cantrip and also just takes one card away from your hand when you use it to trash whereas trade route takes two cards away (trade route + trashed card) and takes an Action to use which generally is weak. I think rat catcher is a lot better due to not being terminal and not weakening your hand as much, with the downside of being slower.

Imperial Russian Stout - $5
Action - Reaction
Put your tavern mat on an Action supply pile.
_________
Whenever someone plays a card, you may reveal this. If you do, take a drink.

Hahaha so good

'Put your tavern mat on an Action supply pile' sounds like one of those markov chain generated cards

I have also had this maybe it was the same Person. They banned a card that i wanted to get and I just bought it anyway since i hadnt agreed to banning cards beforehand. Another message popped up that said "sorry, that card was banned". I also dont see the use of this since it isnt enforceable and I dont like the idea of banning cards anyway.
