Fair enough. And it's been awhile since I played Dominion, I forgot about the ABC aspect of a Dominion turn and how that's kind of similar to energy points.

Now you're really making me want to check out Mage Knight. I was curious about it before, but maybe I should finally pick up a copy.

I hope you like playing games solo or have a group of friends just as excited about Mage Knight as you because it is a lot of rules with instructions that only make it harder to learn.

It's really not that much more complex than StS but you have to keep track or rules and perform game tasks (like refilling shops and playing out enemy encounters) that the video game would perform for you.

That's really where digital games shine, tracking lots of small numbers, states, and actions which would be hell to do by hand. That's e.g. why hearthstone can have persistent damage while that'd be super annoying in MTG: you'd pretty much need a -0/-x die per creature which would get very old very fast.
