Re: How do YOU play the game?
Given that there are only two ways to ultimately survive the ascension wars
1) Don't be a pretender, and get lucky.
2) Be a pretender and win.
And that you are forced to play a pretender, playing for survival is the same as playing for victory.
I am Gamer +1. This is somewhat misleading, as I love the roleplaying side of things, and would also rate myself as Roleplayer +2 (in Dominions) but am competitive enough that I like playing to win.
I am not +2 or +3, as I will purposefully ignore certain strategies if I believe they will spoil the game for me or others.
Strangely, in traditional RPGs I am roleplayer +3. My character is more important than my stats, and than any viscereal (sp?) success I enjoy through his deeds.
