Nocturne Bonus Preview 5: Necromancer

Original Article by LastFootnote

Finally, the powers of the dead are yours to command. It’s about time. Today I’m doing the last bonus preview, Necromancer.

Necromancer lets you play Action cards from the trash. And just to ensure that you always have some options there, the trash starts with three Action cards in it, the Zombies. And two of the Zombies can help you get other Action cards into the trash. Somehow it all works out.

Nocturne Bonus Preview #4: Leprechaun

Original Article by LastFootnote

Today I get to preview the most fun-loving Doom card of all, Leprechuan.

Leprechaun costs $3 and gains you Gold. What a deal! But unless you’re careful, the Leprecaun will also play a prank on you. Just going by the Hexes previewed today, your Gold might come with a Copper on your deck, or you’ll have to trash a $3-$4 card, or maybe all your Silvers and Golds will be Coppers this turn. Is it worth it? I guess that depends.

Nocturne Previews #4: Werewolf, Skulk, Cursed Village

Original Article by Donald X.

Your punishment today: a preview. See it’s all about your own perspective on it.

You get an effect like “each other player receives the next Hex,” and then you turn over just one Hex, just one okay, and they all get that Hex. Of course sometimes you Hex yourself instead.

Dominion Nocturne: Night Cards PSA

Dominion Nocturne: Night Cards PSA

Original Article by Seprix

Attention, everyone. Night cards are not Action cards. There are a surprising amount of Dominion cards that deal specifically with Actions and thus do not deal with Night cards. This will lead to a lot of poor decision making and the sooner we get this list going the sooner people will remember and not mess up and lose for it.

The List

Vassal: Only affects Action cards. Night cards will simply be discarded!

Throne Room, King’s Court, Procession, Crown, Disciple: Maybe there will be a Throne Room for Night cards, but these are certainly not them.
