First, we play the original Dominion board game. And all our group member thinks the game takes too much time, and lack of player interactive.

Modification Goal:

1. Accelerate the game pace.

2. Increase the game interactions between players

Modified Dominion

***Damage and Revival:

Damage

Resolve damage from action cards with each player in a clockwise direction.

If a player gets attacked, they roll the dice once, and the number on the dice is the damage that the player suffers.

Revival

If a player has a revival card when they die from damage, they can trash the revive card immediately to revive with 1 hp.

Revived players are invulnerable until their turn.

Other players can revive them to prevent the attacker from winning.

Players must be alive to revive other players.

Resolve any disputes in a clockwise direction (eg. multiple revives).

Looting

If a player chooses to revive another fallen player, they get to loot 1 random card from the fallen player’s current hand.

The reviver may choose to add the card to discard pile or trash it.

Additional Rules
