Pretty back-and-forth wild game with me an rspeer.
It got near the end and he was at 5 achievements to my 4. He had eaten away my entire score pile, so the only way back was through alternate means. It wasn't looking good.
So I played Fission. Twice.
On the second play everything was gone.
(I didn't realize the cards weren't returned - they are removed from the game)
So it was his turn and the piles looked like this:
a 3
two 5s (Astronomy and something)
a 7 (Railroad)
A bunch of 10s
rspeer picks up the 3 and a 5
I pick up Astronomy and meld it
rspeer picks up railroad and melds it
I dogma Astronomy and obtain universe (because I have no other cards in play... didn't realize that was going to happen until after I used it). I do it again.
Rspeer draws and melds Bio-engineering
I meld and dogma Globalization - gaining 6 points and ending the game.
Madness.
There was a ton of other madness earlier, but the end was the first time I had seen that.
I think if rspeer had dogma's Bio-eng it would have ended the game on a tie - since we both had 0 score and 5 achievements?
Here's the log:
