Editing Event

[[Image:Expedition.jpg|thumb|right|320px|[[Expedition]], an Event.]]

'''Events''', introduced in {{Set|Adventures}}, and revisited in {{Set|Empires}} and {{Set|Menagerie}}, are special on-buy effects not attached to cards; players can buy Events during their [[Buy phase]] to trigger whatever the effect of the Event is, as an alternative to (or in addition to) buying cards from the [[Supply]].

Events are not [[Kingdom]] cards; including one or more Events in a game does not count toward the 10 Kingdom card piles the Supply includes. In fact, Events are not considered "[[cards]]" at all; any text referring to a "card" (such as instructions to "name a card", or [[cost reduction|cost reducer]]s changing the cost of cards) does not apply to Events. However, for reference, the Event effects and costs are printed on cards in a [[landscape]] orientation with silver frames.

There are 54 Events, including 1 [[promo]], any number of which may be used in a game of Dominion, though [[Donald X.]] recommends not using more than two total Events, [[Landmark]]s, [[Project]]s, and [[Way]]s. When choosing a random [[Kingdom]], the Events may be shuffled into the [[randomizer]] deck; any Events that are dealt once 10 Kingdom cards have also been dealt will be included in the game.

== Official Rules ==
* Events are not [[Kingdom]] cards. 
* In a player’s [[Buy phase]], when a player can buy a [[card]], they can buy an Event instead. 
* Buying an Event means paying the [[cost]] indicated on the Event and then doing the effect of the Event. 
* The Event just stays on the table, the player does not take it; there is no way for players to [[gain]] one or end up with one in their [[deck]]s. 
* Buying an Event uses up a Buy; normally a player can either buy a card, or buy an Event. 
* A player with two Buys, such as after playing {{Card|Ranger}}, could buy two cards, or buy two Events, or buy a card and an Event (in either order). 
* The same Event can be bought multiple times in a turn if the player has the Buys and {{Cost}} available to do it. 
* Some Events give [[+Buy]]s and so let the player buy further cards/Events afterwards.
* Players cannot play further [[Treasure]]s that turn after buying an Event. 
* Buying an Event is not buying a card and so does not trigger cards like {{Card|Swamp Hag}}. 
* Costs of Events are not affected by cards like {{Card|Bridge}}.

=== Preparation ===
* Events, [[Landmark]]s, and [[Project]]s can be shuffled into the [[randomizer]] deck (despite having a different back).
* They are not part of the 10 Kingdom cards used in a game; when an Event, Landmark, or Project is turned over, put it on the table but keep turning over cards until you get 10 Kingdom cards. For normal play we recommend using no more than two total of Events, Landmarks, and Projects. Skip any further Event, Landmark, and Project cards turned over. 
* Also skip Events, Landmarks, and Projects when using a randomizer card to determine whether or not to use {{Card|Platinum}}/{{Card|Colony}} (from {{Set|Prosperity}}), or [[Shelter]]s (from {{Set|Dark Ages}}) in a game. 
* Events, Landmarks, and Projects cannot be {{Card|Young Witch|Young Witch's}} bane (from {{Set|Cornucopia}}).
* Another approach some people may prefer is to shuffle Events, Landmarks, and Projects separately into their own randomizer deck, and always play with one or two of them.

{{Quote
|Text={{Set|Adventures}} has 30 [[Kingdom]] cards. It also has 20 Events. It's high time we looked at some of those. Man, they're [[landscape|sideways]].<br><br>An Event is something you can buy in your [[Buy phase]] that isn't a [[card]]. You pay your {{Cost}}, you use up a Buy, and something happens. They don't take up Kingdom card slots; you shuffle them into your [[randomizer]] deck, but when you deal out cards, keep going until you have 10 Kingdom cards. I recommend stopping at two Events, but it's up to you.

|Text={{Set|Empires}} brings back Events. They were fun but I did everything I could think of to do with them in Adventures. But well, this set had new stuff; maybe that new stuff would allow for more Events? In fact of thirteen new Events, nine involve either {{VP}} [[Victory token|tokens]] or [[Debt]] or both.

|Text={{Set|Menagerie}} also has 20 Events. They're just like the ones in {{Set|Adventures}} and {{Set|Empires}}, only new. In your [[Buy phase]], you can use a Buy and pay the [[cost]] to generate the effect. Some of the Events involve [[Horse]]s or [[Exile]], but many don't, including these three.

=== Secret History ===
{{Quote|Text=There are twenty Events. Some people no doubt have already complained that the set has six [[blank card|blanks]]. Couldn't that have been six more Events? Man. You got twenty. I didn't have a pile of great ones I cut to put in the blanks. You have to stop working on the expansions at some point and let them get released.

{{Quote|Text=I used every good Event idea that I had in {{Set|Adventures}}. Still, why not try to make more? {{VP}} [[Victory token|tokens]] helped a lot, and I ended up with 13 new Events

|Text=I also planned to add Events to the set. The set was going to have to be 400 [[card]]s, to include 30 {{Card|Horse|Horses}} and some [[landscape]]s and not have fewer [[Kingdom]] cards than usual. So, it had space. It took me a while to get around to trying some Events, but when I did that all worked out, there were new things to do, not all of them involving [[Exile]] and {{Card|Horse|Horses}}.
