Nice. I figured other players would have appropriate cards to stop Pacifist, but I sure as hell didn't expect Pacifist to have two Card Zaps. Well done.
Should have played the morph, you do NOT want to give all those rewards out.  But hindsight is 20/20 I guess.

Wow, the game ended before everyone even got their turn?  Is that... typical?
There were a lot of alliances this game.  A few too many, but that's a common newbie mistake.  If I mod again I'll limit the number of players which mitigates the problem a bit.

Dude, you had MORPH.

Yeah, and I was toying with using it. I really should have.

Mea culpa. I thought six hands against one would have won out, but that's obviously not how things were shuffled.

I told you he had a Negotiate still. :P

I figured he would. I just didn't want to say that. I was planning on zapping him and didn't want the defender to play a Negotiate card.

Then it turned out I was the defender, so I didn't need to say anything after all.

But that was all for naught. I forget how crazy things can get with rewards. This was my first game in 15 years. Clearly I need to dust off the ole box and get back into CE.

I saw people playing this at a board games club yesterday, it looked extremely boring and un-fun.

Nowhere near as good as it looked on the forum!

I would definitely play again...

Although I would pay more attention to game size and how that effects things. I could've chosen Healer which, with 8 players, absolutely would've been better than Mite.

Yeah, I had never played 8 players before. The version I have goes up to 6. There were rules for 7 and 8 players, but they are….strange.

I at least figured out to pick a power that would help with allying. Fat lot of good it did me.

I actually chose a power that seemed to be better with the amount of players. I haven't played more than 4 before. And those games tend to favour powers like Warpish, Builder (or whoever those guys who gets stronger the more they lose) and stuff like that.

Anyways, thanks for the game, everyone!

I never got a turn, nor did I get attacked.

What a quick game.

And the day after I got killed in RMM2, so I'm in zero games now.

Hooray! I won! :D

Yeah, had like 5 flares. I expected to have to play my mite flare to make all the allies go away my first encounter. Also, I had my super, so had you played the morph Merchant would have had to lose six ships to my zero. :)

That was lots of fun, and really short (three players never even had turns!). I imagine that could've gone many more turns had I not had two card zaps.

If I did the smart thing and played my Morph, I would have thrown in the x3 kicker. So, you would have lost 7 ships to my 5.

Even with my cardships being a buffer, that would have been a nasty thing to give up on. Having you lose 7 would have been bad, but I was in a worse position and probably could not have forced a favorable negotiation.

Y u no play morph?? >.<

That was fun, I had no ships but lots of cards, unfortunately my flares didn't do a ton. Debated about saving my cosmic zap and probably would have if I realized that pacifist was up next, but oh well.

Galz, you skipped on healer for MITE??? Healer would be insane in 8 player, bro. INSANE.
