I think this is a good change. The strengths of domain denial has been forcing the number of domain sources in a reasonable deck to keep going up. More domain cards means fewer other fun cards.

I'm actually against this idea... as it destroys one strategy for playing the game. Domain denial IS a way to play....

..unless the developers are deciding that they don't want domain denial to be a viable play option?


domain denial will still be a highly viable strat. you just need to be smarter about it. seek out figures with no more salvage tokens, be more strategic with observing how much flux your opp has, etc. default buildings are not cheap flux-wise.

The main thing this changes is that domain denial is currently a way to completely take out an opponent without even a chance for recompense.

It doesn't work vs the AI if that is what you are trying.

Thinking that this will get abused with the astridian forum. The only way to get out of the Astridian forum lock is to survive untill you run out of domain buildings so you can start drawing other things. With this one will never run out of them. Need to nerf that Forum.

That's a good point, Cave... sometimes, you may not want to draw a domain building.

Perhaps a button option that can be turned on or off that decides if a domain building will be autodrawn or not?

Great idea! This could be implemented regardless of whether this new rule stays or not.

Maybe the situation where all - if any - cards in hand are unaligned should be handled somehow too, although it's a rare? Maybe it could pick a random domain from the domains you have had in play earlier?

This change makes Sink Hole almost free...

Lay a new building domain building, sink hole, get all your flux back with salvage.

Of course, it also makes using sink hole worthless against domain providing buildings.

YES!!!
The best solution of the Forum and autodraw problem. :)
Adding free domain cards when you run out of them is also good. (when the autodraw is "ON") It seems to be good solution to domain killer armies.

I love 3 domain cards, but in Beta is almost impossible to get 3 domains and hold them until you play your favourite card.

Yes, i think sinkhole will need a fixing too if this is to be implemented. Sinkhole will be far from worthless as long as u dont destroy your oponents last building with lots of salvage counters
