Like card games? Come to Mumford Con!

Did you grow up playing War, Go Fish, King's Corner and the like? Ever try out Euchre or Sheepshead? Dabble with Magic? I've got a game for you to try out and it's called Dominion.

This is the future of card games. Well, at least card games that you have to shell some money out for. The game is quick, and different every single time. There is a theme packed in there, something about building a medieval kingdom, but it doesn't matter. This is one of those games we'll be playing as a filler since you can knock it out in about 30 minutes. Then again, you may want to play it over and over again and turn it into a 3 hour session.

Evolution of a Dominion Player

DominionLet me break down the progression of your typical Dominion player. By typical, I mean a player who strives to get better at the game in order win more often. I'm sure there are players who just want to "have fun" and build a deck to mess around with, but I like to think that most players want to figure out how to build a better deck. This progression has three major phases, from new player, to big money player, to well rounded player. Hopefully, you'll pick up some tips as I detail each step of this evolution.
