[This is a now-outdated April Fool’s joke. The actual Cornucopia card list

(and strategic analysis) can be found here.]

I’m delighted to announce that thanks to a little bit of inside information from one of the readers of this blog, we have a SNEAK PREVIEW of the 13 cards from the next Dominion expansion, Dominion: Cornucopia. Although the five unique cards are still being kept under wraps for now, and the artwork has not yet been finalized, you can find below an exclusive preview of the text of the new Kingdom cards!
