You only need curses if you have the witch. (Or if there's another card I've not played with that uses them.) I mean, what else happens? They sit there being purple on the table.

Personally, I loathe the militia. It slows down the game too much. I have a new plan of just saying "no" and leaving it out. My favorite card is the throne room. And the adventurer is quite a fine card too. (It better be, at 6 cost!)

The game says to put curses out all the time - but yes it seems to me, they are only in play with a witch. I guess you could take them to increase your card count for gardens, but coppers work just as well. Same for remodeling. On the computer, they sit next to the Provinces, so if you are not careful, you can erroneously click.

I've seen the militia help people win, and definitely hinder others.

I wish you didn't have to discard your actions during an adventurer.

Depending on the 10 cards in play, there are so many different strategies to use. I think this game will go far.
