Dominion Cards You Love

Which cards do you value more than you should?
I really like Festival. I always buy more of these than I should, but a silver with an additional action and +buy is just so nice.
My 2nd favorite card is Raze from Adventures.

I like strong engine payloads and just strong cards in general. Bridge, Goons, Highway, Merchant Guild, Horn of Plenty, Cultist, Rebuild, Mountebank, Ambassador, Tournament, Wharf, etc.

Scrying Pool and Goons are my old favorites. I like Butcher and Highway/Bridge a lot; they're like one tier down.  There's also a certain Empires card that I had a lot of fun with...

I love Butcher.

I once won a game by Butchering Province for Province, then buying the last Province. Very fun.

See a previous topic on Favorite Cards, which is somewhat different: http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=13405.msg498414#msg498414

Black Market is  my favorite card and probably something I go for too much. It's so much fun, and it's a strong card, but buying it without looking at the contents can be a mistake.

Oh yeah, forgot about Black Market. I like this card a lot too, but I am not a very competitive player and think this card is fun. Do you guys know where I can get a playset?

Some of my favorite cards:

Goons, Forager, Rats, Advisor, Apothecary, Apprentice, Beggar, Counting House, Spice Merchant, Watchtower, Urchin, Junk Dealer, Noble Brigand, Poor House, Worker's Village, Black Market.

Common themes would appear to be trashing and coppers.

I like strong engine cards that are hard to actually get into play or make strong. City and Grand Market, for example.

Evidence of thriving towns, Pottery, roads, and a centralized government amaze the startled scientists.

Finally, they come upon a stone tablet, which contains but one mysterious phrase!

I would have lost all respect for you, if you had said anything else ;-)

I´d be happy to play some friendly games with a kingdom, where Scout might be good.

I think I've lost maybe one game with Goons in it.

I love the obscene amount of draw I get from Hunting Grounds.

Bridge Troll is probably my favorite Attack, as well as favorite cost reducer.

Counterfeit is very nice, particularly with Jack of all Trades.

I think I'll always have a soft spot for Pirate Ship for it's thematic-ness.

You can buy it online through Making Fun. You can buy the physical copy of the card through Board Game Geek where you can find all the promos for sale.

I know about the online cards. I will check Board Game Geek for the card.

I live in Germany and and some of the backs of the Expansions we have here are very different.
If I spend money on this promo card I would like that it fits in with the other cards. I don´t like playing with sleeves.

Engines are not made out of villages. Engines are made out of metal bits and pieces.

Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

Not sure how you can edgecase it?
Throne Room, King's Court, Royal Carriage, Herald Golem, Lost Arts, Champion, stacks of cards like Lab, Hunting Party or Governor (not sure if those count as engines, but I count them because they are reliable and such), Prince, Ironmonger and Tribute.

Would you like to play some Scout kingdoms sometimes? What type of question is that? What am I going to say, no? You must be new here...

But yeah, totally PM me. I can't figure out how to stream from an iPad (sad day) but I would encourage you to.
