For anyone who’s spent quality time wandering the Mojave Wasteland, the caravan card game is an essential, yet deceptively complex, distraction. It’s more than just a minigame within Fallout New Vegas; it’s a key source of early caps and, frankly, a massive frustration for many.

I'm starting this thread to elevate our collective knowledge base (E-A-T) beyond the simple in-game tutorial. I need expert, semantic insights on the true calculus of the game.

What is the single most reliable deck building strategy? Are you running heavy on Jacks for sabotage, or is it more profitable to stack Kings and Aces for pure value and easy numerical manipulation? I want to know the proven pathways to consistently winning a caravan game.

Furthermore, the in-game instruction on the ranking and scoring system often seems vague. How are the suits truly factoring into the final tally, and what are the community’s best theories on how to best exploit the simple nature of the opponent AI exploit? Does the AI prioritize high-value cards or threats to its own caravans? Understanding these algorithmic weaknesses is key to becoming a true master.

Finally, I’ve heard whispers of fan-created variations. Are there any clever Caravan house rules that the community has implemented to make the game even more enjoyable or strategically balanced outside of its strict FNV implementation? Share your deep-dive strategies!
