Board Game Arena

Hi,

I'm not sure if this has been suggested before.

It seems that most Roll for the Galaxy games go along the path of Develop, Develop, Develop.

Once in a while, the stars align, and Shipping works as a strategy.

Once in a while, Planet building works as a strategy.

What if there was an Optional Rule that 6+ Developments only scored the "+" part as Victory Points? They still cost 6 dice, but the Victory Points for winning the game did not "double dip" and score 6 VP and the "+" VP?

I've been thinking sort of the same thing, though if I had to make any alteration it would be the following:
-Galactic Federation gives 1/4 of your development cost
-System Diversification gives 1/3 of your reassign development cost
-Galactic Bankers gives 1 point per 2 developments rounded down
-New Economy remains the same

I think this would substantially nerf the development strategy since it more or less relies on getting one of these tiles, while not making 6devs as a whole a bad investment.
