And it was absurd!

I ended up beating all of the Act I's, half the dark ages act II and all of the main set's Acts...

I was using around 10 zaps a round for act III of the main set.

Luckily I was getting 20 coins a pop for a long time yesterday when I was trying to play multiplayer and it crashed right after start up a bunch of times in a row... circle of life?

I know it's being reworked, I know I should just be patient to get the promos... but I'm not a patient man and the grind was annoying at best.

Oh well... Only Envoy and Walled Village... and then Black market... and then Stash... damn it.

[LastFootnote]

When I make it to 100 VP, I think I'll grab Walled Village. After that, I'll probably wait for Stash (although it'll probably be the very last card implemented, and I don't just mean of the promo cards).

Congrats!

However, at the moment, one can only earn two promos! Even if you beat everything, there aren't enough points to unlock everything. Absurd in my opinion. And, it is a real grind. I know. Right now, I am going for Envoy. I always liked it more than Governor, but I like Governor as well. Right now, the adventures are a real pain in the ass. And, yah, Goko has been crashing a lot lately these days.

Well, I love envoy, but the way I saw it is that there are other cards that do similar things to envoy(big draws at a price) but there is nothing that does anything like governor.

Actually, governor dominates games so much that when it is vetoed on Iso I'm usually happy. It definitely is one of the power 5s, woe to the player who ignores it.

Walled Village and Stash are pretty meh. "Oh a village that is good when it screws up" and "A silver that I'm not smart enough to pay enough attention to my deck to make you work"

I think that black market and governor are really the promos that change the game landscape and therefore I think I have to prioritize them personally.

[LastFootnote]

Well, I finally beat enough Adventure games to get both Walled Village and Envoy. It was a lot of fun, especially the Dark Ages adventures. They really helped me get familiar with the new cards so that I'll embarrass myself less once I start playing ranked games with them.

Yah...I did beat the Dark Ages Adventure and got Envoy. I think I will go for Governor next, but you can't go wrong with an extra village. I made the mistake of playing ranked games with the new cards first...I went from number 10 on the pro board to like 40 something.  Anyway, these newest cards are kind of hard for me to grasp at times. I only feel comfortable with a few DA cards so far. Man, those games with DA only cards and lots of trashing and trashing options makes for some complicated confusing mind-warping games.

Right now I've unlocked envoy as well so I'm working on Walled Village. Mathematically it's impossible to unlock all three right now... I think the math I did the other day puts around 280 total Victory Tokens up for grabs.

I've been playing the seaside campaign averaging around 5 zaps a round. If I can somehow plow through seaside and prosperity(or they actually make the adventures fair) that would put me on track to get walled shortly after cornicopia.

I'm being kinda obsessive here....

Your math seems right. After Cornucopia, we should be able to get all 3 promos. But, then, I wonder about when they program Stash and Black Market, and I am assuming that likely new promos will be around. Well, they did promise tournaments which would be a way of getting VP, but how much VP does one get, and is it only awarded to the winner??? Right now, I really don't like the system they have in place to get the promos.

I just started playing adventures to unlock the promos. I won first two games of Base Act I (two stars game 1, one star game 2) but got no victory points for either of them - is it normal?

Yes, you only get VP for "bosses" - every four levels.

[hsiale]

Ah, so that's what the skull symbols are for. Thanks

Just so you know, the small bosses get you 2VP, the boss at the end of an act give you 4VP, and the final boss at the end of the final act gives you 20 VP.

[hsiale]

I finally got to 100 points and getting Governor - this took all of Base set adventure and 3 acts of Dark Ages (there are 4). The act 3 final boss gave 20 points, which was a nice surprise, I expected 4.

I've already unlocked two Promos, and got about 1/5 for the third. Of all the campaigns Dark Ages (and Hinterlands to some extend) were by far the easiest. Maybe it's because they are most recent ones, and the difficulty for them has been adapted to a reasonable level.

Wait hinterlands has a campaign?

[SirPeebles]

I thought that the easiest was one of the prosperity acts.  On roughly half the boards you could just build towards a crushing Goons megaturn and not even pay attention to your opponent gathering Provinces or Colonies.

Of course not. Don't know what I was remembering there.

I believe Trisha is working on it as we speak.
