Board Game Arena

Playing at table 500089587, I attempted to use my United Nations Mars Initiative.This was several move after I had last raised my Terraforming rating,but I had done it since money and resources had last been generated.The system wouldn't let me use the initiative,although I was able to do so immediately after I raised my Terraforming rating again.What counts as a generation for the initiative ?

A generation is the basic round structure of the game. It begins with buying cards and ends with production. UNMI provides a "blue card action" to your tableau. Blue card actions can always be used only once each per generation. In addition, this action stipulates you must have raised your TR this generation before using it.

If you feel like UNMI worked in any other way, submit also the move number when it happened and someone can take a look - if it looks like a bug we should open a bug report.

Thanks,Erik.I have reported it as a bug.

And I see that you also got an official answer from the designer on BGG.

Yes,I doublechecked first !
It didn't happen again after that,though.Maybe something occasionally causes the UN Mars Initiative to re-set during the same generation,if you don't use it fast enough.

I think I didn't have the honor play it here yet, so cannot compare... Lets hope it works as it should.
