The Players

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

Chris Geggus (Aridor):  Rather surprised to win that. I guess it all came down to Excentric Award. I knew I was pushing Kevin, but didn't actually count that last turn, so just let the cards fall. My early cash injection really helped, although I didn't really see the cards I was hoping for. Surprised to see such a spread. Hard work, but enjoyable. Liked the Corp. Thanks to Chris and thanks to all.

Andy York (Viron):  Had trouble getting a cohesive strategy with the cards I received, but still ended up with a decent score. Chris G. definitely deserved the win with a fine score, though Kevin was nearing his coattails. Thanks the Chris H. for helming a fine game.

Kevin Wilson (Polyphemos):  Well, I thought I had a shot that time.  I picked up a milestone, tracked on an award, had some cards but that 39M€ production for Chris gave him the wherewithal to put too many cards on the table for the VPs they provide.  Those pets snuck on me!  Great job driving M€ production.  That may be the most I’ve seen.  Certainly the most I can recall and likely the difference.

Christopher Hunt (Valley Trust):  Thanks to Chris for the kind hosting and game management. Like Kevin never seen such an income. Failed to get the polar milestone and left the greenery for others. Failed.
