Thanks, I'll forward this information!

The behaviour you encountered is correct. Exiling a card from the supply is explicitely not "gaining" that card (although it now is yours). It's one of a few ways to "become the owner of a card, without gaining it". The other most prominent example would be cards being passed by Masquerade.

From the Menagerie rulebook (https://www.riograndegames.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Dominion-Menagerie-Rules.pdf page 3):

* Exiling card from the Supply is not "gaining" the card, and will not cause "when you gain this" abilities to happen. Discarding a card from your Exile mat is not gaining it either.

Thanks for the further comments, that helps establish that this is not an insolated opinion.

Thanks for the report! We are aware that Highwayman and autobuy is bugged in the way you described. The workaround for now is to play one Treasure to be nullified, then autobuy should work again. But of course we look for a way to handle the whole situation better.

OK, my Windows Firefox is at 97.XXX What operating system does she use? That might also help finding problems.

Posting about Allies bugs is totally OK, because without report, they will not be fixed. In this case, we already know about the problem, but you couldn't know that. So thanks for the report!

Thanks for the report and the pictures. Can she check which version of Firefox she uses? She can find this by cklicking the "3-bars menu" on the top right of Firefox,



then selecting "Help" and then "About Firefox".

I'm using Firefox myself to play, and don't have that problem.

I forwarded the cimplaint (that is not the only one of this kind) and made a suggestion how to allow "a few" costumizations without it becoming "cooking the board".

That game you mentioned was a 6 player game. For 5 and more players, 4 piles have to be empty to cause the game to end (Province/Colony pile being empty is still also a game ending condition). I assume that your other games were also with 5 or more players.

The normal "undo" button does what it did in the "old" UI: It goes back to before your last decision.

The Rewind button let's you go back to before any decision. If you click it, each log line with a decision will have a yellow line surrounding it. If you click the log line, you will attempt to go back to that decision (could be yours or somebody else's).

That is handy in cases you did something wrong a few steps back, you need to ask your opponent just once for the undo effect, instead of needing to do it in 2-3 one-decision undos.

AFAIK some cards from Menagerie shifted "1 place". Can you post a screenshot of that garbled screen. Could you also check the Chrome version you have ( the URL "chrome://settings/help" gets you there directly, otherwise you have to click on the 3 vertical dots, then "Help", then "About Google Chrome").

I'll forward the remarks and ask what the supposed advantages of the new system are.

I agree that having cards suddenly pop up where you don't expect them is bad. I think what happened is that there is some order for the cards in your hand, like you usually don't want Coppers, then an Action, then Silvers, then more Actions a.s.o.

If you play IRL and draw a card, you usually put it somewhere where it feels correct for you. Here the game has to decide what the "correct" place is, and uses strictly that order I mentioned above, and that may interfere (as you described) with what the player is trying to do at the moment.

I'll forward this, and there already was some disucssion about how to best handle this, but I can't recall the suggestion right now.

It's debatable what the right choice is here. Ruins are in the supply, so putting them in the "Cards in supply" section seems appropriate. OTOH, they are listed again below, because the pile contains up to 5 different cards, not just one. The same is true for Knights.

Thanks for the report!

This has been mentioned on discord already. It looks like positioning the trash on the top right of the window might have unintended consequences. I've forwarded this.
