Tried another approach, increased the score by a tiny margin
danuer13 182 vs automächtig 153.
It's nice to see approaches that try taking resources advanced tiles (5c+1qic here and in @Joshua87cz's game, for example). Good game!

Felt like a hard map for Lantids.

This map is hard for them...
Yes, a difficult starting map but the Geodens do create a few handy clusters. Joshua87cz, taking on the ultoma without the PI is quite a challenge you set yourself!
@invalidname, thanks for sharing your less successful as well as your successful games, that's very much in the spirit of the challenge.

kespie 208 vs 158 Automachtig - Pretty much ignore PI ability.
I thought your game was very imaginative: early hopping with mines, and a late mine rush getting some benefit from the PI ability. Nicely balanced scoring across the categories.

kespie 208 vs 158 Automachtig -
https://boardgamearena.com/13/gaiaproje ... =510154538 - Ac + 2M opening, up Eco then Sci. Mine spree in round 4, Ac2 and PI in round 5. Pretty much ignore PI ability. Can probably be polished a bit in round 6, but round 1-5 are pretty solid!
208 !! Nice one, i was trying to beat ultoma , but couldnt find a good strategy, then I studied your game and realized that the 3vp per federation token, was a good one for this set up.
This is my victory against ultoma 185 vs 173 ...
it was pretty close
The victory was never in doubt
. Excellent tech and research scores. I couldn't at first see why you'd not scored higher but your booster and round points are a bit lower than some.
