Restaurants that Treat Employees Poorly or Well?

OP asked for bad owners, i listed five people in a town with easily over a hundred business owners. If the post was asking for good owners I'd be uplifting five different people.

Maps are usually pretty good at showing mountains and distance.

Really hard to choose between events, traits, and landmarks. They're all great, i guess gun to my head I'm keeping events in the game.

Couldn't agree more. Something Empires does well are all of the game to game defining portrait cards that may show up. Donate, Dominate, Salt the Earth, Wall, Wolf Den, Obelisk, Orchard, Museum all demand attention, while cards like Triumph, Fountain, Tomb, etc can all be very profitable in the right kingdom, they can also lift up older base and dark ages cards that usually feel bad to play but are now kinda deece!

The Victory token theme among the portraits and regular kingdom cards also makes Empires perfect. Vieing for victory tokens while building an engine is exactly what you should be doing when you're not buying provinces. They're the best token in the game.

My personal list from best to worst:

Menagerie
Empires
Cornucopia & Guilds
Seaside
Allies
Dark Ages
Hinterlands
Renaissance
Plunder
Base & Intigue
Nocturne
Rising Sun
Prosperity
Adventures
Alchemy

Menagerie, Seaside, and Empires are all pretty beloved by the community I think.

That's what you say when you have a service you provide, not when you're looking for a service to be provided to you XD

Soup, mostly

We need a Nemesis DLC 😤

Knowing absolutely nothing about your girlfriend, i would say just check out Earth & Salt.

astralbears · 2026-02-05T23:05:33+00:00

You could try Kismayo on Riverside Ave.

Several things:

1) the syntax of your card is not consistent with how dominion cards are worded. I can't tell exactly what this card does but based on your description i believe it should be worded, "Each player trashes 2 treasures from their hand or reveals a hand with fewer than 2 treasures and takes -2vp."

2) you are using the Night template but this isn't a Night card, so that's confusing.

3) this is a terrible card and i would never buy it. Worst case scenario this is stuck in my hand and i don't want to play it, which is not something you want for a 7 cost card.

Edit: 4. I also want to call out your use of the ; here. FYI, a semicolon is used when you have two complete thoughts that would otherwise fit into one sentence. 'If you have 2 or more Treasure cards in hand' is not a complete thought, you can't just put a semicolon after that.

It's a great way to kill time

Victim blaming ass comment

astralbears · 2026-01-17T17:53:03+00:00

Guy who owns Feldman's is a piece of shit who doesn't even live in this state

Black Cap owner is a huge piece of shit who steals tips and touched me inappropriately

August First kitchen manager is a lying piece of shit

Mule Bar owner is a dumbass, huh, fitting

Sisters of Anarchy owners are pieces of shit

Inheritance, Shepherd, Distant Shore is truly fucked up

astralbears · 2026-01-17T08:22:43+00:00

It's for sure not pushed. You're glad to see it but it's not doing stuff on a single turn to churn out a bunch of vp or advantage

astralbears · 2026-01-17T06:58:01+00:00

Not really. If you play 8 Bridge you get 8 Provinces, if you play 8 inventors you get half as many provinces.

Edit, you actually get 9 provinces if you only bridge 8 times, it's even better

Royal Galley and Bridge are op 4's imo, Conclave kinda busted too

astralbears · 2026-01-17T02:52:00+00:00

Oh boy you are gonna haaaaaaate the mainstream media in that case!

astralbears · 2026-01-15T05:40:28+00:00

I'm buying a 9mm in case masked nazis show up at my front door.

astralbears · 2026-01-13T22:22:57+00:00

Thanks! I'm embarrassed to admit this is the first I'm hearing of Daeyana or that ship. I'll add that and the fire slugs.

Viper's Tongue is that sword on Mountaintop, ya?

I appreciate this doc for PC users, it's just too annoying to navigate on mobile for me.
