the “BoW + RvI with takeovers” setting really starts to grow on me.
adds one more layer of thoughts and decisions.
exciting game. only my last played card turned the tide (35-29).

just in time to save my aries symbols at the end of the line :smirk:

I never felt like I got a strategy going in that one - didn’t see a 6 point development the whole time lol! Thought I was making a comeback and then saw those 73 points! Gg!

327

great finish by KYakerdude (20 points in last turn), but i could resist with 17 consume VPs in the last two rounds.
GG KYaker!
and now Snotty will try to rebuild his clover farm :disappointed_relieved:

Don’t let JammaTal fool you. I got creamed by a master.

329

thx for your kind words, but no. it’s just a cardgame and i’m on a lucky streak :upside_down:

it was a game of exotic cards:
Galactic Scavengers, Psi-Crystal World, Retrofit & Salvage Inc, Interstellar Casus Belli, Alien Toy Shop and Terraforming Engineers.
a frightening consume engine (27 VPs in 2 rounds) depleted the VP chips for an early finish.
GG Snotty!

Well played Jamma! I really like what you did with the Cassius belli and consume. I won’t spell it out here because I plan on adding that one to my bag of tricks.

I made a slight mistake on the last turn, I was hoping to use the rebel sneak attack to get an alien guardian out, but even those 13 extra points wouldn’t have been enough. Not even close!

Now all I can do is cross my fingers and hope someone can stop Jamma before he takes over the galaxy! Good luck everyone. Go and save the day

333

i remember the great days of the “Rule of Clover”, only 3 wins short (9-3) of conquering the whole galaxy.
i’m not even close to that.
i think the galaxy can rest assured to be saved sooner or later :thinking:

334

Hello @JMH.75, can you see the created game?
still waiting.

335

Was a bit busy, game accepted

336

no problem at all.
i was just wondering if you could see it.
because i couldn’t see games created by KYaker lately.

@KYakerDude, problem fixed now? and notifications back again?

[edit] AH! can see your invite now, KYaker! good news :blush:
but i will not accept. too busy itm.

337

we both had problems with a slow start and to get any kind of engine going, but the end came with the speed of light.
together we played 9 cards in the last round.
GG JMH!

Gg indeed @JammaTal! Incredible how many 6-cost developments you managed to play in the kast turn.

339

@feederofgoats saved the galaxy. my congratulations to a well played game, feeder!
clashes of different engines (trade/consume/produce vs military/goals) are always a guarantee for interesting games.

340

Thanks @JammaTal! I got very lucky with the combo of Alien Factory and the card that added 2 cards to my trades. Sorry to be useless but can somebody help me out with what to do with the iconography. I wasn’t expecting to win!

I think the next up is @SleepingGiant. Do we play with all expansions switched on?

341

I think you get to choose, as the reigning champ!

Thanks @SleepingGiant…

Have I posted the icons correctly? Invite incoming.
