Red Planet Blues: a Terraforming Mars tournament

Whose turn is it in Table F’s game? I get to the part about “Planet in sight — preparing for arrival” and it’s stuck there. @whovian223 @kennfusion @Mirefox

Table C done!

This felt like a weird game. There was barely any greenery, yet the game was over in 8 rounds,

Good game @JammaTal and @irishdomer08.

It was on me. Same problem I had recently, it did not register my “end turn” so has been sitting there waiting for me to hit end turn (but I know I did).

Just did again. game state should have changed.

Just noticed, 3pts for Vitor, who need the boost. Good going @Hardco.

Is that a bad one? I don’t remember what my other option was, but it seemed worse…

yeah, this kind of pseudo draft is really underwhelming,
often enough just a lose-lose situation.
some players don’t like Gaia’s free faction auction too much, but the limited TfM company draft is a downer for sure and i wish we could have a company auction instead.

At the table we give each player 3 corps to choose from to help alleviate this problem a little.

In my last game I got Robinson industries and thorgate, neither of which I rate highly. The game I won, I got the excellent Saturn systems

We are in the 14th generation. The game is not designed to go that long.


I get the error message, even when I try to reload. WHAT NOW?

Last time I checked, I had maybe 97 points? Aarrgghh. Why does it take that last screen a full minute to load in Mars, anyway? A full minute! What is it written in Basic?

Asmodee keeps delivering….

@js619, @Caradog, are you able to get in to the game or do you see the same?

Shit, same error when I try on the ipad. I’ll boot up the MacBook and give it a shot in steam once I get the kids off to school.

I had SO MANY vp’s….

We ALL had a boatload of VPs. 14 gens will do that.

Same error on steam

Aargh. Vanished completely for me. Hadn’t even finished this generation, I still had enough money for an asteroid to finish terraforming

We start fresh? Call it a draw all around?

I’m okay either way but in fairness to the others, they’d probably want a draw. Comments welcome! Let’s hear from you, guys!

Not to rub salt in your wounds, but for diagnostic purposes, the game I’m in is still running fine.

Let us know what happens when you get to Gen 14! :stuck_out_tongue:

@Zebracadabra @js619 @Caradog - happy for you to rerun the game, if you’re all up for it. We’re not on a schedule after all.

Also, well done for finding a new way to break the game :grin:

Happy to play again, also happy to share my workings-out from this morning when I was trying to see if I should terraform or keep going for another generation :smile:
