    Don't know if this was mentioned before, but I think I figured out the reason why turn notifications don't always work (at least one reason). Before I got my ipad, I used to get them nearly every time, but now that I have an ipad and play the game on both devices, the notices only come on one of the devices - generally the one on which I most recently played. They really should go to all devices.

    Is there any way to tell your opponents' total score while the game is going on?

    Count yourself. The game is already easier than the board game because you can dig through your own discard pile.

    You can count your own score, but you can only count your opp's score if you remember or write down every card he purchased/defeated, since the log doesn't show every turn.

    how interesting .I usually manage to get those 7/8 cards. Huge factor is luck of course. I usually aim for the mystics since those are the most useful IMO. It lets you get bigger cards to get more power for middle/late game and also gives you a solid construct pool.


    Anywho, just wanted to say "sorry" to everyone. I just recently got a Vita and it has really taken away from iOS gaming. I already dropped a bunch of games. but i'll try harder to be more consistent with this one since i love it and the community so much. :)

    Yeah it's a lot of fun playing you. You have some really smart plays and I think I'm about even against you, you may even have the upper hand.

    Edit: Also set a new personal multiplayer record. 166 points. I had 12 constructs :p

    Just won three 4 player games in a row with kitkeat, celeric and emos.

    I find playing 4 player games not all too different from playing 2 player. Same concept, build a solid deck that works well together. There are a few key things though which differ.

    1. Don't lead in honor. The Sordid Asp is painful and you have three more opponents to take advantage of killing it.

    2. Banishing is slightly less important because you typically get fewer turns. Maximize gains from constructs and +1, draw type cards.

    3. Don't buy more infantry than you would otherwise because the honor pool is bigger. celeric did this a lot and it didn't help him very much.

    In 4 player games, find draw cards to be the best. I still go for quite a few constructs, but there are 3 other people that may make me discard them. Completely agree about the honor pool, given I generally try not to focus on honor as I feel I do better at focusing on getting better cards. Only time that really fails me are shorter games when the other person focuses on getting honor and ending the game in fewer turns

    Just my experience, feel I do better in 4 player games, sadly they always seem to take a week or more to finish as 1 or 2 players always seem to drop out waiting for the 3 day time limit set. (what I always make my time limit for them)

    Also, play Camzy quite a bit, feel free to invite me to games as well! Playing Camzy over and over made me learn quite a bit and feel I do decently well.

    You guys are getting better and better -- now most of you can cast 6 or even 8 runs before round 8 now, some time even at turn 5 or so. Need to catch up.

    Any word on the update (bug fixes and feature requests, not RD)

    Well, likely 3-5, but yeah, it should be arriving very soon now, and I could probably accurately name a list of TA members who will be buying it day one. ;)

    Haha I also recently bought a Vita too! It has taken away 60% of my portable gaming time during my public transport time to and fro work. I am playing a bunch of games on it, Super Stardust, Lumines, Uncharted Golden Abyss and Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3.

    The only games I still consistently play on my iPhone is Ascension and now also Nightfall.

    When is the new expansion for Ascension coming out? TAKE my money 1st day!
