If someone solved Homeworlds and made an AI that could easily beat a human to that game (assuming it hasn't been done yet), would you give that AI a medal?
Very nice to give a voice to this Pyramid Classic and probably most strategic Pyramid game. I just noticed that you published the second episode and I will watch it with interest. Could you publish the game moves, or at least provide a reference? In this way, it would be possible for others to replay the game as well. Thanks Andy and John.
11:20 area. Does the sacrifice action complete before the catastrophe takes place? Would the catastrophe happen as soon as there are 4 at system or either EOT or as soon as the sacrifice actions have been completed?
How is the first player frozen out of the blue economy at the beginning of the game? Aren’t only the small blue ships unavailable? They have a blue star so couldn’t their larger green ship be changed to the same size blue ship? Is there something so inherently bad about such a move at this point in the game that it would never be considered?
Yay! I've played TeeTeeTee, and he's like a machine. He never makes a mistake. He's better than TwoShort. Maybe better than some of the Great Old Ones. Fortunately for me, he's also retired.
This is a really cool idea for a series! Loving all the games and videos, guys!

Love this series! It's entertaining plus I had a hard time wrapping my head around what to do but this really helps.
YESS!!! This is exactly what I was hoping to find...you guys are awesome.

Players choose when a catastrophe takes place.

You can convert a ship to a different color if the same size is in the bank but if there's nothing in the bank you can't convert. hence frozen.
Where could one find the star coasters you are using here?
Use areopress round coffee filters with ink drawing. Or we like cardboard coasters
Please do another episode with more evenly matched opponents.
We're definitely planning on more episodes in the future!
