Good find, thanks! Shame they cropped it. This is one of the better Flanders inclusions.

Re: Introducing: BGA IRL™ – The Future of Real Real-Time Board Gaming

Finally the universal undo option we’ve been waiting for! The Devs must have been working around the clock to implement that one.

Re: Complexity 3/5???

Complexity yes, should clearly be 1 or 2. It’s such a simple, elegant game. The fact people have already blasted up to >600 ELO suggests luck is not a huge factor, or should be 2 perhaps. Very limited information about future tiles so I’d give strategy a 3. It feels a bit more tactical. The limited ...

Re: Question on 2-player rules

Niall 220 vs Ultoma 176 https://boardgamearena.com/9/gaiaproject?table=413474110 3 Feds, initial focus on economy, then Nav/science, Gaia from Rd4, then AI and Terraforming in the last round. Advanced techs from Gaia and science. It was my first run-through, so I’m sure there are loads of inefficien...

Re: Players conceding just a few moves left when they know they are going to win

I have a completely different opinion on this the previous poster. For me, a lot of the joy of board gaming comes from the process, not the outcome. Particularly in an engine-building euro game, where after you establish a great engine, it is great fun to run it and play the game through to the end,...

Re: #6 - Solo Challenge [February 2023] ACTIVE

I don’t have time at the moment to plan it out properly, but thought I’d have a quick stab before the month ends!

Gaia, Nav, TF at the end. I can see lots of points left on the table…

Re: #5 - Solo Challenge [January 2023] ACTIVE

Lost 155-161 to Ultoma on my first pass. Second try: Niall 180 vs 161 Ultoma - https://boardgamearena.com/gamereview?table=332934538 - focus on science, nav, terraforming and AI This one seems tricky to score highly, but I'll have to think carefully through another few goes. There are much fewer ava...

Paco224 224 vs Alptrauma 223 - Economy, Gaiaforming, Nav, AI. https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=325585529 I tried another time to start on north east side and managed finally to beat Alptrauma but it was very close ;) .
