End of Game Statements
Kevin Wilson (Gleens):
Well, the combo of swapping the PI to help build federations and then
having the QIC to re-score them is tough to beat. Just a quick
read through, 3 federations, rescoring one of them twice, did the
trick. Congrats to Martin in a nice win and to Chris for running
the game. With only 3 it seemed a bit slower to get moving and
not much income early nor opportunity to charge power. I debated
getting an academy out there to open up gaining QIC but liked the
cheaper Gaia terraforming but it meant I was more off to the side and
not benefiting from proximity until too late. Probably other
things I could missed I could have done but still fun.
We all avoided the terraforming of Transdim planets and the
terraformers. Cool piece in the game but is that 2 games now with
no one making the effort? I don’t see the value but maybe I’m
missing something.
Bill Scharf (Lantids):
I have to get out of the habit of playing weak factions. Definitely…
although I would like to try the giants….hmmm, something to think
about…..
