#25 - Solo Challenge [September 2024] ENDED

[w2_boardgames]

w2_boardgames 179 vs Ultoma 166

Opened with PI, tried to get to reach 2 soon to be able to get crucial planets before Ultoma takes them away. Also advanced on economy track. Rushed up later on the Terraforming track to get more different planet types and the federation token. Tried to make most use of the round scoring tiles and also the round booster scoring tiles. Could have used the PI ability more I think and build more TS for more coin income. But I’m satisfied with the first try.

Gave it another (couple of dozen) try(s)

The improvement is not as much as i hoped.

ThorAvatahar 221 vs ultomate 166.

eco max first turn, acadamy, getting the 2 federations asap, trying to squeeze in as much 3qics as possible only. getting the third city in the last turn.
There must be a better score, but I am not sure what to improve.

There are a few days left for you to try the September solo challenge or post improved scores.

at the last day of september, i managed to squeeze out 1 more point

https://boardgamearena.com/13/gaiaproje ... =569163809

so went academy first turn with max econ, second turn federation, from third turn on every turn 3qic action, in the 5 turn squeeze out 2 more feds and in the final round get the 4th fed (12 point). I mis three points on endgame scoring, but have been able to do both 3qic and 2qic action in the last two turns.

ThorAvaTahr 230 vs Ultomata 166

i thought it should be easy to improve on Mallumän's score with the second turn Fed, but it is amazingly hard! Impressive work by Mallumän.

46 VP from qic actions and 23 VP from tech versus Mallumän's 45 VP and 23 suggests your games were very similar, but actually they are very different. Great game, especially to get 4+1 feds! It's nice to see an economy advanced tile being used (5c+1qic per round). I think it's been impressive work by everyone who has posted scores - thank you all.
