5: Horn of Plenty, Ill-Gotten Gains, Cache, Counterfeit, Venture, Royal Seal, Contraband, Mine, Mint, Bandit Camp

This evening I played 4 three-player IRL games randomly drawn from the following somewhat autumn-themed set of 25. It was a lot of fun (and much easier to transport than all of my cards)!

Promotional Cornucopia

$2: Hamlet, Fool's Gold
$3: Black Market, Fortune Teller, Menagerie, Oasis, Tunnel
$4: Envoy, Walled Village, Farming Village, Horse Traders, Remake, Tournament, Young Witch, Nomad Camp
$5: Governor, Stash, Harvest, Horn of Plenty, Hunting Party, Jester, Embassy, Duke
$6: Fairgrounds, Border Village

For the Black Market deck, we used one of each of the Base Dominion cards. This actually worked out really well because reading the simple, familiar cards was very quick and did not slow the game down too much.

The kingdoms were (I think):

Game 1: Black Market, Fortune Teller, Oasis, Farming Village, Tournament, Horse Traders, Hunting Party, Harvest, Stash, Border Village
Game 2: Hamlet, Black Market, Nomad Camp, Tournament, Envoy, Walled Village, Horse Traders, Harvest, Jester, Hunting Party
Game 3: Hamlet, Tunnel, Menagerie, Oasis, Young Witch (Fool's Gold is Bane), Envoy, Horse Traders, Horn of Plenty, Duke, Jester
Game 4: Fool's Gold, Tunnel, Menagerie, Fortune Teller, Remake, Farming Village, Envoy, Young Witch (Hamlet is bane), Horn of Plenty, and Hunting Party

Game 1 was the least fun. Games 2 and 3 were good, and the last game with Remake moved along quite quickly, was the closest, and was fun. I started out getting Golds from Tunnel, cleaning up with Remake, then set up a mega turn buying three Provinces and gaining one via HOP to win by a little.

Festival! Anybody who is anybody is here!

2- squire, duchess, beggar
3- village, ambassador, scheme, urchin
4- tournament, feast, baron, procession, wandering minstrel
5- duke, knights, festival, tribute, horn of plenty, jester, embassy, mandarin, counIt, rogue
6- fairgrounds, nobels

The Bishop and the Margrave aren't there! And some nice locations for this party could include Gardens and Monument. Maybe Menagerie.

Thought about them both. Margrave is like a commander of the guard, so I didn't think he fit with the festival. Bishop was better, but not as noble-like as I was going for. (Steward is also not there)

I had locations too. Monument got cut. As did Courtyard.

The other option is to turn it away from the tournament-festival and more into a market-festival: add market, grand market, peddler, trader, trading post, etc.

Ed

But Urchin and Rogue fit?  Aren't they criminals?  Beggar is alright. :P

Urchin is one of the poor kids hanging around the festival/tournament.
Rogue is a knight without a master. Likely competing in the tournament.
(kind of like a Ronin to a Samurai?)

Ed

I -think- (based on ASoIaF, though) that knight without a master is called a "hedge knight". Rogue is an outlaw.
