Product Information

The pandemic got me working on Allies, Allies got me working on second editions, and the second editions got me working on Plunder. Making more Seaside and Prosperity stuff was fun, and I had mechanics lying around that went with that. I could seriously make some treasure-durations. I could try out "rewards," which had been sitting around for a long time (looked at briefly for Empires). I had an idea for duration cards left over from Seaside 2E; I'd saved it because clearly it was good for a bunch of cards. And I had a landscape type left over from Allies.

Dominion Update Packs

Early on I tried doing more VP token cards. Some of those gave VP tokens when you gained them, and let you spend the tokens somehow. Others came with VP tokens via a formula; the effect was kind of like Triumph. Anvil • Watchtower Bishop • Clerk • Investment • Tiara • Monument • Quarry • Worker's Village Charlatan • City • Collection • Crystal Ball • Magnate • Mint • Rabble • Vault • War Chest Hoard Grand Market Bank • Expand • Forge • King's Court Peddler Platinum Colony If you Throne Room a Search, Throne Room will stay out with Search until a pile empties, and then you'll trash Search once but gain two Loots (and discard Throne Room that turn). I tried cantrip Silver gainer again (outtake from Dark Ages). It came with a Cargo so it would be good.

There have also been hot-take lists that started immediately after the releases of Renaissance (hosted by jsh357), Menagerie (hosted by kaplane), Allies (hosted by jsh357), and Plunder (hosted by nasmith99, tracer, aku chi, and kaplane) with much shorter voting rounds. These were all done in the method used in 2018.Cards. May discard 3-4 cards with different costs to gain a Loot. At one point I was considering multiple new Smithies, and this one was a contender. You don't proc it much though.

I don't remember how this went but it sounds dangerous rules-wise.Dominion®: Plunder is an expansion, and cannot be played by itself; to play with it, you need the Basic cards and rulebook (Dominion® provides both). Dominion®: Plunder can also be combined with any other Dominion® expansions you have. Comes with a Copper. And hey the bad part by itself. It just kills the pile too often. It's cute when it doesn't.

When the pandemic hit, at first I just didn't work on games. I wrote some stories and novellas. Eventually my daughter Natalie started playing games with me. At the same time I typed up a few Dominion cards, in case external playtesters could somehow playtest them. One day in May I set up Dominion, which Natalie'd been resisting trying, and we played it and nothing bad happened. So after that, we played it a bunch. So I worked on an expansion! That's how they get you. Each turn you either gain a card and put it on the Quartermaster, or take one of the cards you've already gained with that Quartermaster and put it into your hand. Removed cards: Duchess Oracle Noble Brigand • Nomad Camp • Silk Road Cache • Embassy • Ill-Gotten Gains • Mandarin July-December 2022, hosted by nasmith99: In each round of voting, people were presented with a random card and were asked to vote where in the partial list it should be inserted; the card was then inserted at the median vote. 2022 was a noteworthy year because it featured Allies , Plunder , multiple second editions, and errata that affected several cards in big ways (e.g. Merchant Guild and Port ).At the start of your next turn, may play an Action, then draw to 6. I think LastFootnote suggested this. There are 15 Loot cards, with 2 copies of each. Shuffle them into a face-down pile before the game if any cards refer to Loot. Events: Triumph Annex • Donate Advance Delve • Tax Banquet Ritual • Salt the Earth Wedding Windfall Conquest Dominate Right, before there were Traits, there was Cargo. Landscapes with "When you gain a Treasure..." and then what you got. Let's see what these looked like. This is just everything in the file; some had died before the concept did.
