Poor start. Haven’t managed to gain any P1 initiative, and unfortunately drew neither Tech1 card this turn. Stewardess would put me further behind on board. He could go alternatively for a T3 Tech2 build and hit me with a Hyperion as early as T4. So setting up defensively at this point with Tower and teching in solid Strength Tech2 units.

[details=Thoughts][spoiler]

He could break my Tech2 this turn if he bounces Rook with Origin Story, but am guessing he’s more likely to start bringing in the Tech2 fliers instead. So teching in Degrey as anti-Stinger, and Dinosize to buff my Birds or Barbarians. Returned Ogre to hand rather than attack so I can play 2 Barbarians next turn without going down on cards (if my Tech2 survives). Alternative plan would be to tech in Maximum Anarchy, maxband Zane T5 then clear the board T6, though that fails pretty badly either to Origin Story, or killing Zane eg with fliers after bouncing my Birds with Forgotten Fighter/Stewardess or a second flier with Now.

EDIT: actually, i jsut checked, pete, u have ur worker count wrong. u missed gold the last turns :open_mouth:
u had 8 workers at the end of T4 and 9 at the end of T5

12

@legion Thanks for spotting. Looks like I made the mistake T4, in which I didn’t move the intended unit to the worker column in the spreadsheet. So I reshuffled for my T5 hand with the extra card in discard.

@Request would you be OK if I redo the T4 reshuffle with the intended unit workered, then redo T5 with the extra $1? Alternative would be for us to say I skipped the T4 worker (not what I intended) and redo T5 with the extra $1?

Apologies – there’s been more moving units around on the spreadsheet than usual (with the 2x Forgotten Fighter bounces and the Ogre return to hand), so more opportunity than usual to mess up!

13

Turn 4 was legal (other than not listing what was workered, and having an incorrect summary), so don’t re-draw your turn 5 hand.

Turn 5 is also legal, so no need to re-do that either.

Just move the appropriate card to the worker list, draw a new card since I’m pretty sure you just drew your intended worker, and you are floating 1 gold.

14

@EricF Thanks. T5 now edited, with unit moved to Worker pile, card drawn, and $1 float.
