It's a mathematical model for predicting the probability of a win among a group of opponents. No, it's a model for estimating the probability of a win in a two-player game with no luck. When it comes to a group of opponents it is sometimes abused (BGA isn't the only offender), but it isn't really a...

It also varies with time for the same game, as the number of players increases. When I got my first group of "Top N" awards for Space Base, "Top 5" got me 600 XP. When "Top 20" was added to the game, two months later, it got me 750 XP. It looks very odd in my trophy cab...

I think that the current round should still be completed though, I don't think that "I win" prohibits that. As a matter of personal policy, I always wait until the last turn of the round and until everyone else has finished their choices before activating the ability. The rules were desig...

There is a subtlety, which is that the VP decrease from Gordon is timed to happen before other people gain VP for their red triggers in this implementation. The rulebook says: Also note, almost always players can simply allocate dice, gain rewards, and execute abilities simultaneously in order to mi...
