Dominion Game Mechanics

I like that Dominion can be played in many unique ways by changing which card combinations you start with. You can change the strategy required to win just by adding or removing one card. The biggest problem I had is that I did not feel like I had very much control over the game, this may have been because of the card combination we used. I felt like no matter which cards I bought the game would still be too heavily influenced by the cards drawn.
