I agree that it's nice to be able to play on a tablet, but it's not a good option.  Last night I was in a game that had a lot of combos so I was almost going through my full deck each turn.  Each turn was PAINFULLY long due to having to click each card I wanted to play or option I wanted to take numerous times for it to go through.  I gave up after that game and got my laptop out.  I know that this new platform is in its infancy, but I wish they would have been better prepared prior to the launch or just bought the rights to Making Fun's software.

Ahhhh... I only play against bots, so it works fine for me.  Good to know in case I decide to risk a live person that plays too slow ;)

I want this too.  I loved my saved kingdoms.  I took screen shots of them on the 31st in hopes that I could re-build them.

I have also seen Summon a lot.

Loophole - Go to the "Familiar Cards" screen.  Click or "grey out" any card you don't want to play with as an unfamiliar card.  Go to "Options" and scroll to the bottom.  Select 0 on "Max Unfamiliar Cards".  I no longer have to see another Possession, Swindler, Oracle or anything else that pisses me off... lol.  This is DEFINITELY a feature I love about the new platform.

I purchased most of the expansions with Making Fun.  I also own several expansions of the physical cards.  If I moved to a new house, does that mean I have to buy my physical cards again?  No!  The game moved to a new house.  My cards moved with the game.  I shouldn't have to buy them again.

My theory is that the online popularity of Dominion grew to a point where Rio Grande saw a bigger money making opportunity.  I bet they killed their relationship with Making Fun just to move to a new provider to give them an excuse to start charging an annual subscription so they could keep making money off of the players.

The new platform is of lower quality than the one created by Making Fun.  That alone is offensive and asking me to hand over more money for a lesser quality product is even more offensive.

I don't think Rio Grande thought ahead when they allowed players to buy expansions.  Once purchased, they no longer profited off of us.  They found a loophole to keep making money and while I get it, it's effing BS.  If a subscription was offered from the beginning, we wouldn't be having this argument.

Those of us that already purchased cards should be given our access with no additional charge.  Apply the new policy to new members or the cheap members who refused to buy cards in the past that are always in chat asking to be invited to expansion games.  That's my 2 cents.

First, I've been trying to register for this forum since this started.  I just finally got an email verification today.

I played the old version on my tablet most of the time.  It was great!  Playing on my tablet now is so extremely frustrating!  I have to click on the action I wish to take multiple times to get it to work.  Also, some of the options for top deck, card selection, etc... are so tiny that you cannot see which card you are selecting.  This web based version is not good for a tablet.  I have a Samsung Galaxy A, if that helps.

Do you have an app that is being developed?  I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem.
