Re: Request: have "always 2 actions" as an option on async tournaments

This is a non-discussion. 1) As players have pointed out, there are various reasons to do one action. 2) The rules of the game permit a player to take one or two actions per turn. 3) BGA's developers are not allowed to change core rules of a game. If anyone wants to waste time writing a suggestion ...

Highest score? (just to chat)

Hi forums, I realize this forum isn't very active, but still.. anyone care to share their highest (2p? with a player trying?) score? I had 129 earlier; three early active leaders helped. https://boardgamearena.com/8/lorenzo?table=780832966 I think someone once scored 135 or so against me but now I d...

Re: What is the optimal strategy with this hand?

Many games rely on luck, including T Mars. Mining Guild in particular, with the low starting cash and corporation ability, is very "luck" dependent on drawing tiles to place to trigger the corporation ability. Sometimes it lines up (I had one such game just now, https://boardgamearena.com/...

Re: Status of the game and bugs?

I think the interface is ok; I also think BGA (or whomever owns it, Asmodee?) should pay their developers actual employment salaries, benefits, etc. . If I read some forum posts correctly, most (all?) developers on here work as volunteers? You pay peanuts (or nothing) you get a low quality product? ...

Re: Late game strategy advice

Hi OP / all. Great information on this thread. About question 1- I think in general 11 to 0 plant prod advantage, and being ahead 2 tiles, warrants a landlord fund. Doubly so if it late gen (past 5 or so)? As always the scenarios can vary (maybe if you are playing against ecoline, and they have AI c...

Re: Milestones and Awards in 1v1

In 2player, milestones are even more important imo. I usually play doing almost anything to get them; I have at points discarded 3-5 cards to claim a milestone I was not sure I could keep the next gen. My point of view in 2 player strategy is as follows: - If the game status quo yields to my determi...

Re: I have a lot of delays/lags in Terraforming Mars. Any Suggestions?

I need help with this too, someone just kicked me for time while the animation was still showing their turn! Updating browsers helps but... there are some folks are there who never chat / will do anything for these imaginary internet ELO points. If you are ever playing and more than a few seconds p...

Re: Terraforming Mars Analytics

Hi, I don't know if those stats are available on BGA. I will say there's at least one discord (hodgepodge?) where this data can be found; I haven't joined that discord but it gets discussed on these forums from time to time (someone at some point copy/ pasted some of it on here). The data from that ...
