Game over at the end of Round 4. Yssaril Tribes is the winner with solid scoring every round plus Imperial.
Muat didn't get to blow up a system 😢.
We played with 3 of the new races from Thunder's Edge. All in all, it was very enjoyable.

Start of Round 4
The Yssaril Tribes just played a heck of an Agenda response card. Vote yes, and he gets Speaker (meaning he'll grab Imperial and stay on Mecatol Rex for another round w/ 4 mechs), or everyone loses their mechs.
All our mechs (14 in total) got downgraded to a single infantry.

Our #BoardGame weekend keeps rolling along. We're all set up for Twilight Imperium 4ed (w/ PoK & TE expansions).
It's everyone's first time playing Thunder's Edge, so this should be interesting.

Aaaaaaaaaand Civil Disorder just reduced me down to 3 cities. I'm going to stall on the AST chart, but at least I was able to make 4 more tech purchases.

And the following round did not go well. The players in the middleof the score track decided to keep us in the lead from gaining more cities.

Not just 6, but 7 tech purchases! Somehow, I managed to get 2 full sets of Resin and Copper

Celts & Carthage (me) have emerged as the front runners (Rome bought a Regression card). A bunch of us are set up to hit a wall for the late Bronze Age, but if I can pull off a good trade round, I might be able to buy the min 6 cards.

That was a rough round, Treachery, Slave Revolts, City Riots, Famine, and a Minor Uprising.

The borders have certainly been established. So far, only 1 or 2 minor conflicts. This is the big round for everyone to get 5VP in order to advance to the next age.

It's not Thursday, but any night is #GameNight when your friends are in town.
Tried a new one tonight, John Company. It's really different for a competitive game in that everyone is trying to support the East India Trading Company, but in their own unique ways that are most profitable to them.

The original statement is insane. Not just for ridiculousness, but for what it's in response to. I'd wager $10k no one would ever guess.
