Dominion - Adventures

Adventures introduces Events, which let you buy effects instead of cards. Reserve cards wait in the Tavern until you want to use them. A variety of tokens can go to players or onto piles to change them. Duration cards return as a theme. Travellers are two cards that upgrade repeatedly.


Reserve cards are tan, and have an ability that puts them on the Tavern mat. It sits on your Tavern mat for as many turns as desired, doing nothing; then it is called into play at the time stated to do whatever it says.


Adventures introduces Events. In your Buy phase, when you could buy a card, you can buy an Event instead.


Adventures has Traveller cards. When a player discards a Traveler from play, they may exchange it for the card indicated.

Flavor

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. You’re not sure which, but at least you’ve narrowed it down. You are rich with life experiences, but have had trouble trading them for goods and services. It’s time to seek your fortune, or anyone’s really, whoever’s is closest. To the west there’s a land of milk and honey, full of giant bees and monstrous cows. To the east, a land of eggs and licorice. To the north, treacherous swamps; to the south, loyal jungles. But all of them have been thoroughly pillaged.

You’ve heard legends though of a fifth direction, as yet unspoiled, with its treasures conveniently gathered into troves. You have your sword and your trail mix, handed down from your father, and his father before him. You’ve recruited some recruits and hired some hirelings; you’ve shined your armor and distressed a damsel. You put up a sign saying “Gone Adventuring.” Then you put up another sign, saying “Beware of Dog,” in case people get any ideas. You’re ready. You saddle up your trusty steed, and head florst.
