Thanks for the link to an interesting read. As a casual Dominion player myself, I would like an opportunity to play against the AI that these folks evolved. They said only that their AI was "challenging" for human players, so I suspect that I could consistently win more than my share. (There is also an evolved Puerto Rico AI available on the Internet that is challenging, but I evolved myself to win 45% of 5-player games against it.) Do you know where (if anywhere) their Dominion AI is available?

No, I don't unfortunately know whether it is available for play but there's this page: http://gameprogrammer.dk/dominion
His email is at the top right. Maybe he would be willing to publish it?

Wow, I discovered Dominion only a few days ago, it's amazing. I'm completely addicted. Dominion AI seems like a very interesting challenge as well from my noob perepctive.

Yes, I have gotten sufficiently hooked on Dominion to buy two expansions (Intrigue and Prosperity) in addition to the base game. The only major flaw I find in Dominion is that it is a card game, i.e. luck plays an enormous role. However, a poker player shouldn't mind that given the many ways one has to express skill within variance. Now if only there were on-line Dominion gambling sites where you could make a living. (You might be interested in playing on BrettSpielWelt if you don't play there already, but alas no money changes hands.  http://www.brettspielwelt.de/?nation=en )

Oh, I'm playing at http://play.goko.com/Dominion/gameClient.html. And yeah, obviously it's all about % of chance to win (or average point difference? That'd be a slighlty different way to play). And as a poker player I'm fine with that indeed It's even better for bots, thay really can play tons of games to have significant sample size.

Have you played the game by Whale Song Games, based on Dominion, called Fortunes of War?
I used to play FOW all the time =)
