I was quite behind for a while but then I got my engine up. It was probably too late though.
I have played Wharf- Fortres- Remake. Probably I should have bought second Remake.
Any other mistakes? How would you open with 4/3? Was it possible to win this in turn 12 or 13?

I'm not sure why, especially after your bad initial draw with Remake, that you kept on trashing Estate -> Sage. You really needed a Silver to hit $5.

Sage can be a trap on these sorts of boards. On turn 3 or 4 it could be poor if drawn with the remake. It will always skip over estates and curses even if you want them in hand for trashing. It adds nothing if it draws the top card of your deck. And so on. Its advantage over silver is that you can cycle faster and draw your whole deck sooner, but if you can draw your whole deck then sage becomes poor again.
