Yeah, that wasn't pretty. Defence choices were, lose all my military actions and 8 resources, or lose two Scientific Methods. The latter seemed worse. Should be better for the other guys as defence cards will cover me.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I just have to share this game.

Where I feel pretty good about triumphing with a 64-point wonder:
http://www.boardgaming-online.com/index.php?cnt=202&pl=160885&nat=3

Only to have victory snatched from me by crooked politicians.

The more relevant thing is to see green's wonder and then read the journal to see how the points changed.

I shake my tiny fist.

Cool game. Thanks for sharing. Who seeded this event? Tables?

I was getting really terrified. I figured that Kuildeous wasn't going to go for the Sagrada without Politicians in hand. Turns out he took the risk, and boy did he pay the price.

Well, netting 32 culture is still pretty good for any of the wonders. Politicians definitely blunted its teeth a lot.

I'm sure Galzria was just cackling every time I built up that wonder.

Heck no! I spend my days writing about how crooked these people are! I know better!

32 culture is good, yes, but most of the wonders cost 16 resources, not 64.

That's true; not a very efficient use of resources. That just means the Politicians card is so aptly named.

I discovered to my horror that I'm in only one game now on BGO. I have rectified this by creating 19. Using the Spanish version because they're funky fresh.

Created 20 because I apparently missed out on 19. Gone for Polish because I have no idea what the difference is between the versions but I've played standard a few times now and want something slightly different. 3p.

Do we have enough TtA players here for a mini tournament? Say, 9 person, 3 player games (all base probably), 2 points for a win, 1 point for 2nd, swiss style, say 3 games each? Any interest?

Centuries later, archaeologists discover the remains of your ancient civilization.

Evidence of thriving towns, Pottery, roads, and a centralized government amaze the startled scientists.

Finally, they come upon a stone tablet, which contains but one mysterious phrase!

'ISOTROPIC WILL RETURN!'

I'm sure Kuildeous will want in too. Maybe Watno? Ipofanes?

Galzria is right. I'm \in.

I may have to actually pay more attention to this particular game's journal.
