Title: Trojan Horse offers a Trojan horse

A crazy back and forth game, featuring a Fission explosion. Scroll down to my turn 28, and I'll give you some details:

I led four achievements to two, but my opponent led 10 points to 0. He had Combustion and more crowns than me, so he was poised to gobble up any cards I scored. I had Robotics and AI on my board... and on turn 28, I drew Software. I had visions of winning with AI, but there was a problem: if I activated AI, I'd first have to score a 10, and our scores would be tied. I needed my opponent to increase his score. So I offered him a Trojan horse...

For my second action on turn 28, I activated AI, and scored a 10. My opponent took the bait; he grabbed my 10 with Combustion, and claimed the 4 achievement. I then melded Software and activated AI again (scoring the last 10 in the process), and I won.

I'm glad I could live up to my username.  ;D
