Man I have been mafia-ing so much my iso rank has gone to hell, but I finally got back on today and played with some really neat sets:

http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201209/22/game-20120922-193745-d6561f8f.html

is a Goons game with no villages at all for megaturns, but both Lab and Caravan are out, as well as Pawn. So we both try to build decks that draw themselves and play a Goons at the end, but I opt to rack up Pawns for +buys and buy Loans to get rid of those excess Coppers, while my opponent is more focused on smart buys and emptying the VP piles.

The nice thing was that with the Labs and Caravans, the Goons' attack stopped hurting very much, which made the game much more enjoyable than a normal Goons game.

As soon as my brother gets Alchemy, I want to try this set, which is mostly Alchemy and Cornucopia cards, and definitely a Cornucopia sort of themed game. Basically we're both trying to rack up diverse, action-heavy decks to feed Vineyards and Fairgrounds while also collecting the cards themselves, and the regular VPs, with only Woodcutter for +Buy. I think a more skilled player would have gone for a more focused, faster strategy, but the puzzle of how/when to best try to grab ... more or less everything ... was interesting enough for me.
