Just to follow up on this, I ended up getting a copy of Martial Law in the last Math Trade. After one 2-player game, my preliminary rating is a 9. I was surprised at how brain-burning it is; not having card archetypes (at least not ones as obvious as Dominion) and having to pay close attention to what opponents are doing, plus restrictions on what you can play...a lot of weighty decisions. It had a much different feel than I was expecting. I found a "killer combo" in the cards that were out, and had been winning...until my opponent figured out what I was doing, got a large chain out on my turn, and proceeded to give me 8 wounds on the attack the next turn.I've played quite a few deckbuilders (and have even owned a few), but this is the only one other than Dominion I plan to hang on to. Well done!
