Power Grid - Simpler Resource Grid Having each of the number of players info on separate pages is great! I'm going to have to print these. :) |

Can one creature block multiple attacks? I would bold the "one" in "chooses one creature for it to block." |

Why are Shocklands better than Guildgates? You're also correct; having the types Forest Plains also makes the shocklands slightly better, because they interact with other cards that care about those types. In some cases, that can be a disadvantage though, like if your opponent has a creature with Forestwalk. |

Does Fateful Hour apply in this combat? Also, his opponent probably would WANT to go from 7 life to 5 life, if he's playing Fateful Hour... |

Is Lookout usually a good pick with a Big Money strategy? "But if you are playing Lookout/Smithy you aren't really playing Big Money any more." I don't think this is accurate. Big Money doesn't have to mean just 0 or 1 action cards in addition to money. It just means that you are much more focused on getting money than you are on other actions cards. See this article on Big Money for more details: forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=6403.0 |

What happens when the {X} in Mind Grind *is* zero? Curious, why the need for the X can't be 0 restriction? It seems like if that weren't there, and you did cast it for x=0, then each opponent simply wouldn't have to reveal any cards, because they have already "revealed 0 land cards". So it would be a pointless, wasted spell... why the additional restriction? |

Processioning a Madman Also note that if it weren't for the "if you do" on Madman, then you would draw a total of 9 cards, not 6 cards... 3 the first time, then 6 the second time. Brian Mains appeared to think you should count your hand only the first time. |

Procession and Throne room interaction @Jefromi You are definitely correct. The game designer has discussed this several times. He intended for all cards that force you to do something to keep you accountable, like Beaurocrat, but missed it on Throne Room and a couple others. This is indeed why King's Court is "may." |

Procession and Throne room interaction If you Procession your Throne Room, as opposed to the other way around, your 4th point is incorrect. You DO have to play an action twice when the Throne Room is played. You cannot choose to play no action with it, because Throne Room does not say "may". Although it doesn't tell you to reveal your hand to prove you have no actions, that doesn't mean you can "get away with it." If you play no action after playing Throne Room, but you had an action in your hand, that's cheating. |

Do the shipping rules restrict my choices if all ships are empty? Wow, I've played Puerto Rico probably close to 100 times, and I've never noticed this rule! It's probably not come up very often at all, but I always thought that if there wasn't a ship with your type of good already, you could choose any empty ship. |

How to use Chapel card to its fullest potential? Keep in mind also that it's somewhat of a different story when playing with only the Base set cards. Chapel is best when playing with the types of decks that the Base set doesn't allow. That's not to say it's not still a good card in Base set only; but it's not nearly as good as it is when you start playing with other sets. |

What happens when you need to tear-down a hotel but no houses are in the bank in Monopoly? Normally you could, but not if there aren't houses to place.. that's what the question is about. See also boardgames.stackexchange.com/questions/8049/…; same question. |
