Dominion Pt. 1 of 2

Dominion is a board game created by Donald X. Vaccarino. It is published in the US by Rio Grande Games. This is part 1 of 2 of our Dominion overview and review. It is highly suggested that you watch this video in HD if you are able to. Our apologies for needing to split the video up into 2 parts, that is a Youtube restriction.

Also does depleting the Garden deck count as one of the decks to end the game?

[SaberGeekiN]

@trencher7 The Garden counts as a Supply Deck in the end game condition. So if it is the third supply deck that runs out, the game will end.

Can you never play a card optained on that same turn? If my action card allows me to upgrade a card can I play it if I have a additional action or does it go right in the discard? Same with a coin I buy? Can I use it that turn or does it need to go straight to discard?

[SaberGeekiN]

@trencher7 Pay attention to the wording in the manual. When you "Gain" a card, it goes into your discard pile, and you may NOT use it that turn. However, some cards (such as the Mine in the original set) say that you specifically "Gain" the card, but then you put it into your hand. If all it says is you gain the card, you may not use it. Likewise, anytime you buy a card, no matter what type of card it is, it always goes to your discard pile first. You are building for the future, not the present

What's the game at 2:07 ?

[SaberGeekiN]

@Tokse Last Night on Earth. We also have a video for it up.

[YoksterMan]

Good video, but you never mentioned the theme of the game before moving on to gameplay. I like how you actually play out part of a game to illustrate how it's done.

[SaberGeekiN]

@jxoxrxdxaxnx I assume you are talking about the victory point cards? If so, then you are incorrect. The cards clearly say "1", "3", or "6". Perhaps you are mistaking the victory point icon for a "0"? I don't know, but either way, it's incorrect.

In the future, how about we give some context and be a bit more constructive with criticism?

@yazmut - You're looking up a strategy game on youtube...what'd you expect

[yazmut]

these virgins (and yes i can see his wedding ring) just killed the game for me....

[trencher7]

@SaberGeekiN Thanks! Just got this game and love it. Only played once, but the Garden was key for the win. Not sure if that's normally the case.

Being someone that doesn't have a lot of experience playing different board & card games, I have a hard time following this walkthrough and ultimately don't really understand how to play. =\
