Scores reported. I didn't register your score bk_marvel because your last score is under the previous one, even if the automa was harder. But GG ! :-)

Opps, I played with the wrong faction. Will try it again.
outsider84 232 vs Ultoma 173 – https://boardgamearena.com/7/gaiaprojec ... =329862033 – Focused on econ early on, switched to gaia mid game. Finally jumped onto AI for the extra points.

KoBeRiGhT 161 vs Ultoma 170 – "(diden't know we had to copy/paste the end game URL)" – Focused hard on Eco little on GaiaForming and Nav – Should have taken the 3pts/ Gaia Planet earlier.

I tried another time to start on north east side and managed finally to beat Alptrauma but it was very close ;) .
Nominative determinism? I’m going to rename myself Niall250 for the next one! ;) Great score though, great game.

Thanks so much Marcus for all the admin and positive engagement with players, and excellent scores all, looking forward to trying January’s challenge!

(And a small tip for the person who was beaten to the advanced tech by the AI in round 6 - I found my solo play improved somewhat after I read through the Automa rules and worked out how their actions are executed. It’s not necessary to learn, as the computer does all the work for you on here, but if you know how it works you get a little preview on the left of each card as to what the next turn’s actions might be, and therefore if they are potentially threatening certain tech tracks or power action spaces. Maybe this could help?)

Self-fulfilling prophecy never works.
Ideally, use this format : YourNickname Score vs AutomaLevel Score – LinkOfTheGame – Techs focus – YourComment (e.g. : Marcus Aurelius 222 vs Ultoma 165 – www.boardgamearena.com/game=12345 – Focus on Science and Terraforming until mid-game.
