The numbers in the Resource Marker column indicate the box, numbered from left to right, while the number in parenthesis is the number of resources to be gained from that space.  N/A indicates that the marker is not in place because a card that can accept those resources is not in play.  Text in the colony spaces indicates either the owner of the colony, or the benefit of establishing a colony there.

End of Game Statements

Christopher Hunt (Ecoline):  Thanks to Chris for running the game. Congraulations to Dave. A convincing win.  I had no symmetry.

Dave Hooton (Arklight):  Thanks to Chris H. for another well-run game.

I would have thought that if both Ecoline and Arklight were in a game together, neither would excel. However, the latter played far more relevant cards than the former.

There was a point where I was worried that playing the colony-related cards would prevent me from playing all my important eco-cards, but this fortunately turned out not to be the case.

Kevin Croskery (Helion):  Thanks to Chris for running the game and well done Dave on another strong game. Lack of cash was my usual excuse - I had a nice floater engine but it produced very little in the way of VPs. First game ever where I had a minimal board presence, just the one city (missed in the VP calc but makes no difference...). On to the next one!

Chris Geggus (Teractor):  Well played Dave. Even without my faux pas, I would not have closed that gap. Stupid on my part, but would not have made that mistake in a live game. After a good start I ran out of point scoring cards and couldn't grow enough on the board either. Looking forward to the next one already. Thanks to Chris for his continued patience dealing with so many pushy gamers.
