Title: Highest possible score?
Post by: 640er on May 16, 2020, 06:35:14 am
Given the following rules:

you can build any kingdom you want and your opponent is LRattington.

What could be the highest possible score? I just reached 2027VP but it was far away from perfect. engine got stuck and lord could end the game way to early. did not have banish in my kingdom.

You can get infinite with monument and either the cutpurse pin or the bureaucrat pin. The game has plenty of infinite loops too, so that's another way.

Bishop/Fortress where neither player buys anything on their turns will give you unlimited points.

You can even generate infinite VP off Ambassador/Grand castle/Champion. Return the Grand castle every turn (it stays in the pile due to Champion) and then buy it back for more VP. Similarly Graverobber/Cost reduction/trashing makes this work as many times as the game lasts.

Or regain Emporium from the trash. That's quite fun if the board can do it.

Add some more restrictions that eliminate infinite loops and infinite points, and then you have a better challenge.
