@aaron:matrix.orgaaron Yea, I like that one better. 12:46:42

@aaron:matrix.orgaaron Ok, that just escalated quickly. 13:55:39
@aaron:matrix.orgaaronBeyond the fleeting satisfaction of crushing you, those games aren’t even fun. :P13:57:04

@kon:matrix.orgkon I hate starting 3/3/3 with a trade row full of 4's and 5's. That might be the start that balances the first player advantage of the game. 16:40:53
@kon:matrix.orgkon2 Patrol Mechs (3 Trade/5 Attack ship from the base set), Bioformer (3 Attack base that scraps for 3 trade), Parasite (6 attack or free 6 cost), and Space Station (2 damage outpost that scraps for 4 trade) in the first 8 cards.16:47:48

@aaron:matrix.orgaaron Those gambits feel like power creep, but they’re very interesting. 03:08:41
@kon:matrix.orgkonThe decks are supposed to be super OP, but all equally OP. Remember, those are supposed to be about twice the power level of a normal Gambit.03:35:33
@aaron:matrix.orgaaron Ahh, makes sense. 11:54:37

@aaron:matrix.orgaaron I’m pretty sure I threw the game. I gambled on that early 8, didn’t draw it, and killed all my buy. 16:01:02
@kon:matrix.orgkonI am surprised you went for the Fleet HQ. It is, by far, the weakest 8-cost.16:31:03
@aaron:matrix.orgaaron It was the HQ, the brain world, or the 7 scrap base. 17:03:51
@aaron:matrix.orgaaron They’re both worth five damage unless you get faction. 17:04:13
@kon:matrix.orgkonBlob World, you mean? Brain World would be the obvious right answer.17:06:53
@aaron:matrix.orgaaron Yea, sorry, blob world. 17:17:31
@aaron:matrix.orgaaron 8-yellow, 8-green, 7-red. 17:17:52
