Title: Wot, no Megaturn?

Turn 15, I gain all 8 starting Provinces.  Did I miss Megaturn because Colonies were available?  Or because I didn't "buy" the Provinces?

I think you have to buy it, but at the same time when you do get the goal the description isn't bought, rather it is "obtained" which can be translated to mean "gained".

Either way, that's a beautiful final turn.

Not to turn this into a Game Reports thread or anything, but I can't help but think that opening Silver / Silver is better for the kind of megaturn that you were looking for.

I don't know if I had a well-defined plan at the start of the game.  I think I was going for cantrips to keep my effective deck size small, then bootstrapping up to Governors and then King's Courts.  The early Remodel helps keep my deck flowing pretty nicely.  But, I think I did get my economy off to a slow start.

It'd be interesting to try playing this board a few times to see if Remodel/Silver beats Silver/Silver.

Well, you do want to get those Governors and King's Courts as fast as possible. Once you match your Governors up with your King's Courts, then you're off to the races.

True enough.  And, the Silvers are fodder for Governor-remodeling into more Governors.
