Hands are sent. Remember you use one of these cards normally (building, wonder or coins) and the other is discarded immediately. After this, Military is resolved (+3 for a victory, -1 for a defeat) and we move onto Age III

Hands have been sent for the third, and final, age. The cards move DOWNWARDS this time. At the end of the age, the military victories are worth 5 points, but defeats are still 1 negative VP. When this age is finished, the cities will be scored and the highest VP will be the winner.

The hands have been sent. THIS IS THE FINAL TURN OF THE GAME.

After this turn, we proceed to the military conflicts (+5 per victory, -1 per defeat) and then the final scoring. The people that has wild scientific symbols should be sending their choice of symbol too. After that, we proceed to scoring.

I have really enjoyed this game. At the start I didnt have the time to really commit effort, and in not really reading the rules I missed finer points. I spent ages waiting for a card to build my wonder, but kept not getting any. Once I freed up a bit more, I sent my moves a lot more quickly, and made much more progress.

Here's hoping things go well for all, and that no-one finishes last.

If my math works out correctly, I earn 44 total victory points at the end of the game. I've thoroughly enjoyed this as well, and I want to pick up the game if I get the chance.

SCORING

lexprod · NOT not a title

Thanks for modding it! Congrats to Dethwing for winning, and jesternl for getting second, partially due to my army brutally ransacking his nation Revenge most foul!

FWIW: I completely forgot to use my wonder's power, which is getting 1 free building each age. D'oh

Wow, I'm surprised. Good game everyone. Thanks again for running this Ref.

Scurra · Daedalian Member

Yeah, gifting Giza a massive army was always going to be a mistake. And it just goes to show that War trumps Science every time Revenge most foul!

Thanks for the game, I enjoyed it.
