Super high score without green

[rohusk]

Hello all,

Until today I used to think that going green is the only way to get an insanely high score. In this game I got 87
* without any green cards
* without winning red cheaply (3 cards, 1 per age)
* Without top blue cards like palace and pantheon

I must say I got lucky with a couple of nice guilds. My strategy was to not over invest in resources and get some 4 and 5 pointer blue cards in age 2.

What's your highest score without green? Would love to hear about your non-green strategies.

Hey,

For different kind of strategies you can see

although if you mostly play 7-player games, these will not fit

Hello
I have a question; i watched the replay.
At the move 117, you get 5 victory points with the haven, although you have only 2 brown cards...
The system says you get 2 gold which is right but where are those 5 points coming from ? I wonder...

Because he gets 4 gold from other buying him ressources + 2 golds from haven + 2 points = 4 points

That's about the most perfect first two round and two first moves in the 3rd round as it gets.

The very high scores without science always include getting both of your neighbors building all in science in a 6-7 player games where there are enough science for all and then getting both strategist and philosophers guild. Usually when this happen you can get around ~80 points.

Because you had perfect hands in the first and second round you got a little higher than that.
