Card "Olympus Conference" - science tags vs. science ressources

Post by Torfi Torfnase »

Hey folks,

one question: the card Olympus Conference (card Corporate #185) holds an action to place science ressources on the card.

Do the science resources count as additional science tags for the fulfilment of requirements to play other cards? Or is the only use of them to be changed for cards?

Thanks!

Resources are not tags and you don't count them in tags.

thank you.

Well then, the effect is pretty poor, only giving one addition card for every second science tag you play..

You missed on this one. This is one of the better cards in the game. With expansisons while it's position is lower due to more OP cards being introduced it's overall strength becomes even greater making it borderline S tier card. Maybe even an S tier depending on how wide is someones S tier.

1. Science tags are very valuable
2. Card draw is very valuable
3. Card draw that can be acumulated in 1 gen is better then spread over the course of couple turns.
