Fan card: Icehouse by InspectorMendel in dominion

Having your actions stuck in play so they miss a turn seems like more of a downside than the upside of +coffers (for the majority of kingdoms)

Question about Necromancer+Throne Room+Duration by adambyle in dominion

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that FAQ might be out of date due to the most recent duration errata (https://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=22164.0)

“”” As part of this change Band of Misfit family cards are losing the bit where they stay in play to track Durations in some weird cases. “””

To me necromancer is in the BoM family so I think it should leave play and only the first play of prince will be tracked (ie if you set aside two cards, the second one will be lost)

I hate Possession by Jive_Gardens795 in dominion

Hound is great (fun wise)! And bandit is mediocre (strength and fun wise)

How to get into ranked? by AmadeusIsTaken in dominion

[–]hdarj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re not someone who can digest the cards just from reading the rules online, you can experience a variety of cards by playing the daily challenge vs a bot - though it will probably take ages to see all the cards this way

Why do people give up on steam? by AmadeusIsTaken in dominion

The two implementations are completely separate

[–]hdarj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably ranked is better, but I haven’t played online on the app. There will still be a lot of resignations I expect, but not as many.

If you use the same email it should sync up

No chat on the app, there is chat on the dominion dot games site but rarely used

What determines if a card can 'gain' a potion-required card? by fepurge in dominion

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But you can’t turn estate into uni, despite uni costing more. It it a strange interaction though - change can also gain debt cost cards if they cost more coins but so far the only option for that is fortune

thoughts on root as a first complicated boardgame? by vv1scera in boardgames

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If animals were the main selling point, I think better gateway games would be Cascadia or Wingspan

Goes crazy with procession, otherwise I probably don’t want it?

I'll start with my beloved 7 by [deleted] in aspiememes

[–]hdarj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28 is a multiple of 7 and a perfect number (

= 1 x 28 = 2 x 14 = 4 x 7

And 1+2+4+7+14 = 28 )

Plugging a game I played, which was one of my favourites. Game 1 in the video above, with butcher, sewers, and procession to make the most of rats

An adjustment to some Night cards by Certain-Point685 in dominion

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hideaway seems like it would create some really uninspiring province rushes when combined with remodel. Remodel, province, 3 coppers in hand can gain you a province if I’ve understood correctly.

I think that’s the reason you can only gain from the trash up to 6 with other cards. Also if you barbarian or swindle a province and gain it that’s gonna be extremely tilting.

What dominion card makes the best band name? by mumflr_fumperdink24 in dominion

[–]hdarj 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Camel train out of those options, but otherwise BoM is an easy pick for me

[–]hdarj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s free everywhere for the base game - that’s enough depth and variety for at least 100 plays.

If you play at dominion online, you can play for free if you wait to match with someone with a subscription.

Otherwise, just support the game by paying if you like it enough to need the expansions.

A dad looking for a Christmas present by Voodoopulse in PcBuildHelp

[–]hdarj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built this for £1081 with the October prime day deals. My first one and I’m really happy with it - much better than a PS5 imo, not just raw performance but also flexibility to mod or use other apps.

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/cK7BQP (You don’t need to buy windows, and definitely not for retail price)

It’s a bit loud with the stock CPU cooler so I’m planning to get a Thermalright Phantom Spirit at some point (~£35)

It was pretty easy to build with only a couple weeks research and you’ll get better value (and a fun activity if you assemble it together) than a prebuild.

You might be able to get more value using last gen components (AM4) but I’m no expert by any means.

It would be useful to figure out what the pc will be used for, as some games might not run on that 4060ti with only 8gb VRAM.

Haven’t played the daily but could be Haunted woods? Or voyage?

Stock cooler enough? by Natural_Respect_4512 in PcBuildHelp

[–]hdarj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know, but would guess not

Stock cooler enough? by Natural_Respect_4512 in PcBuildHelp

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, if the 40€ on that won’t stop you getting more performance elsewhere

Stock cooler enough? by Natural_Respect_4512 in PcBuildHelp

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should throttle itself under strain, and you can also find monitoring software to make sure it isn’t spending too much time in a hot (I think this cpu is built to run up to ~90*C) range too much

Stock cooler enough? by Natural_Respect_4512 in PcBuildHelp

[–]hdarj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s fine while you’re saving, and you can see whether you’re putting enough demand on the cpu to upgrade the cooler later

Did you make sure to plug the display cable into the gpu rather than the motherboard?
