Even though it does support more, I don't like playing with more. The bases are designed with a certain breakpoint. I've played 5 player a few times and didn't really care for it since I felt like I had far less impact on the game overall (since often I would play a guy and the base would score before it even came back to my turn).

I loved this game so much I actually made a set of 8 custom factions for it. This was back when they only had the Over 9000 expansion, so a few of my factions have since been used (Werewolves and Vampires being the obvious two).
Cthulu Expansion is okay. It slows down the game a bit and adds a Risk VS reward factor. The Sci-Fi expansion is pretty awesome though. Cyborg Apes is all in on voltroning a Minion. Science Police is about reusing cards and bouncing your own minions. Spies are about manipulating your deck and setting up for the long game. Shapeshifters just copy and destroy other minions in play. Haven't picked up the Monster Smash expansion yet.

A coincidence. I just bought Dominion last night to play with the siblings. I bought the core pack, so where should I go from there?

when the core pack gets boring, or you feel you have good grasps on powerful combinations...add an expansion

Ok, I should be more clear. What are the good expansions if anyone here knows how they play. It's more likely I'll be adding one or two in the next few days.

Intrigue is a must have. I don't care too much for Seaside myself. After Intrigue I'd go with Prosperity. After that, whatever looks like fun.

Alchemy is a bit odd. We own Cornucopia, but haven't played much with those cards. I've played with Hinterlands, and it was ok. The rest (Dark Ages and Guilds) I have no experience with.

I've only played Love Letter and Cards Against Humanity. Love Letter is fun when money is involved.

In other news, stripping/doing porn to pay for medical school is actually a thing that happens in real life.

You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.

I've only ever played Alchemy and Prosperity. Prosperity is fun, lots of high value cards and lots of money to go with it. Alchemy is broken and bad. There are a couple good cards in there, but any time we've played with more than 2 Alchemy cards, the game sucked. I would not recommend it.

After growing for only 2 weeks, I have a feeling that my beard is going to be epic by the end of November. Men will stare at me in envy and women will get moist at the sight of it. Boys will want to be me and mothers will name their children after me.

Guys, I'm drinking and attempting to write a Magic article for this site and I'm afraid I've bitten off more than I can chew. As in, I'm rambling, but I've got a lot of points to get across. I may sober up and realize that this whole thing is crap.
