I FINALLY got around to picking up 3-dragon ante. I figured I could use it to pass the time for the characters in a game I run. After learning the rules, my girlfriend and I sat down to play a few "gambits"This game is a ton of fun, and there's a lot more strategy involved than you might think. It's much like poker in that respect, in that knowing what your opponent has is half the fight. There is strategy involved in playing "good" or "evil" dragons, how much you ante, etc etc.Good dragons usually result in card draws, where evil dragons steal from the pot or force other players to pay you gold.I especially like the rules for playing a game in character. i.e. a character with 5 ranks in sleight of hand, when forced to pay another character gold, pays one less (min 1).Very well thought out and more complex than you might expect with your first playthrough. Highly recommended.
