Has anyone ever claimed Specialist off 10 titanium production or 10 plant production?

Granted, this is extremely difficult to achieve. Barring opponents who are completely stuck or who refuse to claim milestones, the stars pretty much need to align to be able to claim Specialist off titanium or plants.

I've done it for the other four resources and came close to doing it for plants once but in that game the opponent took the final milestone before I was able to specialize in plants.

Just curious if anyone's done it and what happened in those games.

Well I haven't claimed specialist with it but I have gotten 15 or 20+ plant production. It's insects always of course that leads to this. Best wishes.

Fastest and cheapest 10 plant production needs:

corporation: ECOLINE +2
prelude: Biosphere Support +2 Ecology Experts +1 and play Trees (or KELP FARMING) +3
cards: 2 of ARCHAEBACTERIA/Adapted Lichen/Lichen +2


Fastest and cheapest 10 titanium production needs:

Infact all titanium production cards in game can give you +17 titanium production
corporation: SATURN SYSTEMS +1 POINT LUNA +1
preludes: GALILEAN MINING+2 IO RESEARCH OUTPOST+1 ORBITAL CONSTRUCTION YARD +1
cards: IO MINING INDUSTRIES +2 ASTEROID MINING +2 Space Elevator +1 PHOBOS SPACE HAVEN+1 VESTA SHIPYARD +1 Asteroid Mining Consortium +1
Fuel Factory +1 MINING AREA +1 Mining Rights +1 Titanium Mine +1 STRIP MINE +1

In my view the fastest and cheapest way to get specialize is:
corporation: PHOBOLOG
preludes: GALILEAN MINING +2 SUPPLY DROP
cards: ADVANCED ALLOYS first, then IO MINING INDUSTRIES +2 ASTEROID MINING +2, Power Plant & Fuel Factory +1 Mining Rights +1 Titanium Mine +1 INDUSTRIAL CENTER&MINING AREA +1

I had it one time almost with plants with Eco Expert+Trees, 3 oceans played from others and Nitro Moss into gen2 NRA - which is honestly a pretty bonkers start. But someone claimed it gen1 with the classic Allied Banks + Business Empire combo, so the dream died. In my experience, it is generally fairly edge cases that this milestone does not get taken super fast.
