Good games everyone, some very solid scores and lots of variety in approaches.

@Sassafia, @stevewithaj, I wasn't sure how a PI start would work out, but you got good wins - and with @stevewithaj managing a Rd 1 fed!

'Champagne cork popping' for first to 200. A magnificent 56 research VP and your tech tile collection looks like you were playing Itars! Oh, and 208 points from 0 in Rd 4. Nice. Had you seen my earlier post (18:36, 2 June)?

Yeah, I noticed that it describes the way how i scored points in my plays.
Couldn't miss the opportunity to get 3 knowledge tiles in Round 1, especially with the round 4-6 goals. I think playing wide would cost a lot of points in the late game. However I'm still considering some tricks with taking advanced tech tile early.

My first attempt at the solo challenge. Table 384038749

Can someone please check if I set it up right? What difficulty am I supposed to use?

It went really well (197), mostly bc the AI kept building near me so I could get cheap upgrades, but not taking the planets I wanted. Also didn't take the power actions I wanted. How often does that happen?? No Advanced Techs; definitely should have taken the one that gives VP for research.

This is cool, thanks.

Hi, your set-up is fine: excellent score! You can do the challenge at any level you want, and try it at different levels. Yes, the automa covered very few power qic actions, though it's set-up and level dependent. Itars and Xenos are unlikely to be so generous!

I noticed an odd thing: at about move 81 you were able to reach level 5 of nav and discover the lost planet, when the automa was already there. I'll file a bug report.

@danuer13, thanks for posting the first Ultoma game.

Score lists updated.
