So, again, on the hunt for epic delivery, i played against this guy that previously had obliterated me. REconstructible is palyin a red/blue deck, with lands and tons of surprises to support his fast build. The score on regions was:
Region 1 from left to right, merchants guilds both of us (presuming he didnt have the best hand as i scored 10 on this region and later on he set out a militia barracks over it).
Region 2 he had Vaticano on from like 2nd day and i was unable to counter that...the only thing i had (i was rolling a 30+ income rate pretty early in the game) here was the +1/+1 blue thingy so it was kinda locked out for me the whole game. Later on he had 3 or more influence on this region...
Region 3, i managed to set Art Gallery witch he countered later with papal bull. I had 1 courtesan left and got all my agents countered. He managed to pull a 9 influence!!!...not score, influence on this region by the end of the game.
At about half way thru the game things were looking pretty grim for me, when i got carnivale launched with success and struggled to hit some points on my 1st region where i had the lead and on his 9 influence site, the 3rd region....i was locked out of the 2nd as i said...so till now..it was still pretty bad.
We both waited about 3 turns, i had zero cards, he had a few in his hand. All hope was gone WHEN!!!.... Royal intervention pops in for me. I look at his hand....my only shot was this, combined with my carnivale units on his 9 influence site, i was still leading region 1 but shit was about to hit the fan there too. I chose this region with his 9 influence so i could combine it with agent's campaigning. My heart was pumping when i hit royal intervention with 30+ gold lol, i was certain he had a counter on it....
i managed to land it... I won ^^ wohooo!
Well, cheers yall.
