His deck: 7 Highways, 6 Pawns, 5 Conspirators, 2 Tacticians, 1 Fishing Village, 7 Coppers, 3 Estates
He just played a Tactician.

I'm pretty sure on his next turn he empties the provinces.

I finish my action-portion of my turn with $19 and 4 buys. We are currently tied.

My buy phase:
 ednever buys a Conspirator.
   ednever buys a Conspirator.
   ednever buys a Pawn.
   ednever buys a Pawn.
   (ednever reshuffles.)
   (ednever draws: an Estate, a Copper, 2 Throne Rooms, and a Tactician.)

Pawns, Highways, and Conspirators are all gone.
InClass and ednever rejoice in their shared victory!


Whew! An extra buy would have been nice for the win, but I'll take the tie this time...

This is the first full game I've seen where no victory cards were bought or trashed. Is this actually quite common and I've just never seen it, or is this as cool as it seems?
