(If I double my pawns but develop my bishop is it worth it? etc)

Well, if you develop your bishop you can put yourself in a good position to attack with one of your knights on your next turn, so I say go for it.

It took me a moment to realize that this quote was about chess and not Dominion.

Thankyou.

I tried to go farther with it, but the parallels broke down: e.g., in Dominion, your opponent's knight can't take your pawns, but in chess it can; in chess you can upgrade your pawn to a knight or bishop, but in Dominion you can't; etc.

In chess, the back row on your opponent's side spans 3 Highways.

I deliberately didn't mention rooks or queens to cause confusion.

If you play mental tic-tac-toe, where you have to visualize the board, you can win a surprising amount of the time.

By not capitalizing the card names, it didn't even occur to me that he could possibly be talking about Dominion, and spent a moment wondering why the world you thought that was about Dominion when it's clearly talking about chess.

Then it clicked, and I had a massive laughing fit.
