Homunculus Rune

This rune says that, when undamaged, attacks gain the ability to target the third enemy slot. What qualifies as an attack? The Poisoned round 0 ability to deal damage was not able to target the Timekeeper in slot 3, nor did an item (meat skewer) gain the ability to target the Timekeeper back there. ...

Re: Wistar is beautiful but could use some interface upgrades

I don’t often have trouble with worker movement, but I have had one or two frustrating experiences with it, playing on a phone. The simplest case of moving a single worker is fine. Click origin, click destination. Moving two workers from the same origin to the same destination is slightly more compl...

Re: Trash Dominance

Bga has no such restriction on workers played per turn. You can check out the replay to see for yourself—I played every worker twice per turn many times (start the turn with all workers, play them all, and then get card draw via your action or exchange token to redraw all your workers, play them all...

Trash Dominance

I’ve only played two games so take this with a grain of salt, but it seems to me that cow trashing is dominant. Once you get down to 4 cows and a 5 card hand, you can play all workers every turn and are no longer constrained by cash. I finished at 170 points and over $100. Perhaps with a different t...

Re: Average number of turns per game

I’m no longer convinced this is true. I haven’t had a game go 14 turns in months, and yet my “time bonus number” remains unchanged to the 100th place.

Re: Arena and Skunk Points

It is best of three, with skunking worth 2 games. So getting skunked will immediately lose you the match, since your opponent gets credit for 2 wins. In your example, you would win the match after winning each of the first 2 games.

Re: 10 turns!

When it rains, it pours. Three arena matches in a row, each in 10 turns. 26, 27, 30 points (and I missed some easy points in 26 game, looking back at replay).

10 turns!

I just won a full game in 10 turns (27 points). I believe it to be my fastest game yet. 9 turns might be possible.

Re: Average number of turns per game

Hah, thanks for the tip! I never would have guessed that “time bonus number” was game length.

Average number of turns per game

I wish game length was measured and recorded, so we could see data on this metric. Replays record turns per each button press, resulting in hundreds of turns counted, which is good for watching a replay and not so useful for seeing how long the game went. Does anyone have a sense of their average ga...
