I think I have to call it here. Losing my tech II doesn’t actually impact my hand, but I don’t think my Tech 0 units are going to stand against the tide. :laughing: I’m down to continue though.

I realized last game that there aren’t many starter cards I want to keep, and since I’m at an econ disadvantage this game, I’ll give Rich Earth a try.

Yeah, I’ve reached the conclusion that the easiest and most consistent method of protecting a Sanatorium is to threaten a Pirate Gunship at the same time. Does not apply when facing Assimilate, Detonate, or Nature Reclaims.
