Ok, I'm proud of this

Not the game itself; I lost. But, on turn 9, my opponent gets the first Grand Market. I think "Oh no! I don't have enough money for one, or a Smugglers to steal one. And he'll be getting a second, third, etc, quickly, while I'm struggling for my first!" But then it hits me:
Code: [Select]
--- GendoIkari's turn 9 ---
GendoIkari plays an Outpost.
GendoIkari plays a Copper and a Silver.
GendoIkari buys a Smugglers.
... revealing a Watchtower.
... putting the Smugglers on the deck.
(GendoIkari draws: a Copper, a Smugglers, and an Estate.)


--- GendoIkari's extra turn (from Outpost) ---
GendoIkari plays a Smugglers.
... gaining a Grand Market.
(GendoIkari reshuffles.)
(GendoIkari draws: 2 Coppers, a Smugglers, a Silver, and an Estate.)

Even my opponent told me "nice play."

Ah well, only 360-odd days to wait.

And for the record, this is the most interesting snippet of a game log I've seen for a long time. Good play indeed.

Somehow I always think Smugglers costs $5, because you can gain $5 cards with it.
Weird, but it's hard to get out of my head now that it's in. :o

Oh, nice play btw. :)

But you can gain $6 cards with it too! Maybe it should cost $6.

And one would think, that when he has a watchtower and outpost, he will prevent somebody to smuggle stuff from his grand market...looks like in Dominion it is the other way around...

lol. Actually, you can use Outpost to prevent that, by buying Grand Market on your normal turn, and then taking an Outpost turn.  ;D
