Congrats on another win! I think the optimum play for last two actions was using invasion ships to go to Selective breeding into Interstellar shipping to buy detonation. This gives you the Bene friendship(+1)(9 tot) and allows for you to pull Ixian engineer(+2)(10), SMF(+3)(11), AND win the fight with first (Ambush + Detonation Devices + Pay 4 spice)(+6)(14) or second place(+4)(12). With the endgame(+7)(13-15) you would have been up to 15 victory points if you drew perfectly which was about 30% chance or if anything went wrong still be up to 12 which was the case anyway if the AI was not dumb and used your cull. Either way, well played.

Hey thanks for the thoughtful comment. I don't think I could have done that though - if I'd sent the Foldspace to Selective Breeding I would have to count on drawing a Spice Trade card to go to Interstellar Shipping. Not sure what the odds were on that.

At 28:13 immediately after buying training drones, the UI was shown on the left that you used in the following round to activate that tech (but you clicked on end turn). Does that mean you could have activated it immediately? I don't remember the exact rules on this. Or was it only the game indicating that you just bought that tech with this particular effect? Very interesting and entertaining video! I'm impressed how you manage to play well with the 90 seconds timer running while also commentating.

Hi! Yes, I could have activated the Training Drones immediately if I'd wanted to. Instead I waited until the next Agent Turn when I went to Stillsuits so that I could deploy the extra troop from it. (You can activate it once per Round, not once per Turn) Thank you, yes it can be a challenge managing all those things at once sometimes! I appreciate the kind words.

1:19:30 The ai used your intrigue card just before you clicked end turn. I'm not sure how I feel about that being a feature.

Yeah I don't think anyone actually likes that feature. It's burned me more than once!

It is a great feature! Best against sleepers like Bludgeon. 😂
