True, but I was too busy playing yellow cards to notice.

When I have completed Pyramids, I'll have enough civil actions to grab techs left and right.   ;D

I'm just checking that my move is valid with Watno. This game is so cool and so complicated.

But I've only got 1 Military card in hand right now?

And I'm playing it as my Political Action, right?

Political Action
Play Aggression: Plunder vs ipofanes.

I assume you don't sacrifice any units? Waiting wether ipofanes wants to sacrifice and/or play defense cards.

cayvie plays Plunder (I) against ipofanes with a total strength of 3.
Plunder: If victorious: Rival: Loses a total of 3 resources/food. Aggressor: Produces same amount

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

If he does at least he can't use it for colonization, so it's not a total loss.

There are six bonus cards in the deck, it's not that unlikely he'd have drawn one in his... what, four card draws? Yeah that's a decent chance of drawing at least one (>40%)

I've reached the fun part of building my civilisation where I want to do about 10 things on my turn, at least two or three of them being currently impossible due to certain card row/military card draws.

Now I need to work out how to prioritize in such a way as to maximise efficiency. Or maybe that should be minimise vulnerability? Hmm...

Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.
