Ascension: Card game for iPhone/iPad/paper

I'll try the Void Militia again and see if it'll work for me the way you guys describe.

Wow LeapingGnome, I thought the spread was going to be a lot closer on that game. Well done! (Will play you again tomorrow)

I really wish this game had chat.

Yeah me too, good match!

Me too.

Also: Void Militia seems to be working. Maybe I was mistaken earlier.

Thirded.

Closest game yet Katy! 1 star, whew.

I occasionally wish there were more game history stored, so I could see my record against individual players instead of just my overall W/L %age.

Ditto.
I would love, at the end of a game, if you had the option to save, in some sort of shorthand, the moves that you played and the cards you got so that you could put them up somewhere and get advice.

I am too lazy to go back through the pages, but are there an good sites that give strategy on how to play?

How do you take screenshots?

On the 4S (with latest iOS update) Power Button + Home button at the same time.

Screen should flash and it will be saved.

Shortcut works the same on the iPad as well.

Once you've become pretty familiar with the game, another option is to check out the exhibition matches we've had over at Quarter to Three. This is the main thread, and the first post links to two other precursors. These aren't master strategies, but they can give you an idea of how a match ebbs and flows and how the players adjust (and how the observers would do things differently).

If anyone wants some 3+ day games, feel free to friend me up. sirjoekcb in gamecenter

Thanks!! I read through a couple, and they have helped a lot. The idea of *not* taking a card never really occurred to me.

Ok, I'm ready to jump back in. I'm TheCounselor in Game Center.

From BGG:

Return of the Fallen Price Drop

Playdek wants you all to know that in celebration of the success of the in-app expansion, Ascension: Return of the Fallen, they are is temporarily dropping the price to $1.99. They also want you to know if Ascension is running in the background, the observed price will not get updated. They recommend players end the background process and re-launch the game. Playdek is currently working on a fix this issue. You can get Ascension on the App Store, if you haven't already.

I'm looking for some more games of SoS only. Fedaykin98.

Why, do you tire of beating me? I think that last game was pretty close though.

On the contrary, it whets my appetite for more conquest!

Dammit! Stop taking all the cards I want!

I have that problem with shoptroll right now

Great game with mrwynd just now. He had me until Serpent's Call plus Stone Circle allowed me to combo some huge honor points cards in the last three turns.

We just replaced Clover's stolen laptop with an iPad so I can finally play this. I've sent out a bunch of GameCenter invites already but if you didn't get one, my username is Edwin GWJ.

I'm pretty new to Ascension, but would love to play some some games, if anyone is willing to go easy on me. On Gamecenter I'm fivebrians. Feel free to send invites, I'll send some along.

I find I'm completely overwhelmed with 15+ active games.

Id be interested in starting an Ascension GWJ league. I feel my game can't improve at this point unless I really start focusing on a few games and think through turns for more than 5 seconds.
