The March solo challenge is now active. It is to play the Nevlas versus the automa of the month, the Geodens (you must select the 'Automa of the month' button), on the random map. It is important that you read the “Rules“ section for more details.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, this challenge is for you. The goal is simple: have fun and get a high score in solo mode. Thanks to the BGA set-up, you can easily compare your score, watch replays of other players and learn different ways of playing a faction. Start a good playlist and play serenely at your leisure: there is no timer pressure!
Thank you to the 10 players who reported scores for the last challenge, and to the many others that tried it. Well done kespie, who topped the scores!
Scores of the month: There's elite rank for the top 5 players and cadet rank for everyone else.
1st step: Create a new table. Select “training mode“ on the Game Mode tab and “Random map” on the Game setup tab. Choose 1 player and click on “Start game”. Select the red box Automa of the month (Geodens).
2nd step: Select the difficulty you think you can handle.
3rd step: Select the faction Nevlas. Check that the seed is 16776720 (in the player score panel). If it isn't, start again using the alternative starting method (below).
4th step: Play the game. Post your score(s), mentioning the chosen difficulty (see the format below).
Alternative starting method: Start the game with Random map selected >> Choose the Geodens faction card (as you would for a normal game) >> Set the custom seed (16776720 for this challenge), which is next to the heading 'Choose Automa Difficulty Level', and Select the Automa difficulty >> Choose Nevlas.
Optional: Insert the link of the game (you can find it on your profile – tab (x) games played). Copy/paste the link of your game(s) (see the format below)
Optional: Mention which tech tracks have been crucial for you (e.g. terraforming, format below)
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).
Have fun!
