When you increase the heat to -24 and -20, you are supposed to increase your heat production, not take an extra heat, as your bonus. Great video!
That is correct Jon! It was already noted in the Klingon Subtitles at 17:27.
One of my favorits. Tonight with my group we going to play Terraforming! Great video, Go on! greetings from Argentina
Thanks so much for this solo play through. Played this game at a convention last year and just got it for Christmas. Great refresher.
Like the game. Fast playthrough! thanks. One thing the bonus from rising the temp is a production increase not just 1 cube of heat. Keep up the good work
I love this game really fun multiplayer or solo. Enjoy seing other people play as everyone as different strategies and takes on the game.
When you place a tile adjacent to a water tile, you earn 2 megacredits for each adjacent water tile. That's something you should have in mind to win solo game.
Winning solo game is not that hard. The challenge is scoring more points than your own record or winning in fewer rounds!
Hey nice video! I played this game a week ago and can't stop thinking about it! I was just thinking though that near the final few rounds you might have been better off letting your energy turn into heat rather than using it for oxygen so that you could get the oxygen from your plants and could spend more money on cards or cities rather than increasing the temperature.
great job Tom. I got this for Christmas and looking forward to playing. Your video will give me a jump-start! Best wishes, Ricky
Thanks Ricky :)
Played solo a couple times last night, first with the corporation from the video (luck of the draw?) and the second time with Ecoline (yah yah I know, "cheat mode" but I drew it). First game was a loss with only halfway to heat, four oceans and about half oxygen. Just wasn't getting the effect/action cards and getting the 30 MC contracts.
Second game I changed my tactic (of course discount greenery from Ecoline helped) and used the minus victory point cards (bribed committee, hackers and indentured servants) because it's all about global conditions, VPs be damned but still had +2 at game end. Course having Iron Works, then later Steel Works spiked the oxygen quickly with my placing forests every other turn.
Helpful video; thank you
Amazing video, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Did you add the Corporation Era cards to the deck?
I'm still waiting for the follow-up, Terraforming Snickers.
I thought solo you add one city to the top of mars counting down and one from the bottom counting backwards.
You do plus 2 cities cant be touching
At 36:04 you prodused greenery with 6 resourse rather than. You have to complete 40 teraformings in 14 generations. And for this you should at avarage teraform 2.8 things at each generation. This is rather quite hard or extreme luck shall come in hand.
Yes and no - for sure luck of the cards comes into it, but as a previous poster noted, winning solo is not terribly difficult most of the time (once you know which cards are worth taking and playing); the hard part is getting a good score, which is anything 80+ (you'll have at least 56 before you factor in cards and board, so 60+ is very easy and 70+ is not hard most of the time).
Other than inventrix and maybe UNMI (the 2 corps a lot of people think are difficult to play), all other base game corps offer a good chance of winning most of the time, especially credicor, teractor and IC, which are all insanely good.
How teachers think we do our homework: 2.8 main factor per generation
How we actually do it: Half of oxygen in the last generation because we are rich AF.
Freat video. You were missing 2M each time you put a tile next to a sea tile.
Can you play more than 2 actions per round in solo game?
There aren’t really turns in the solo game so you just keep going :) only 14 generations though
Yes you can play more than 2.
This is the question I was looking for an answer for too! Just picked the game up on sale (late to the 🎉) and am so excited to dig in today!
So in essence you just play until you pass (aka run out of money/cards)?
Yup 🙂 in the multiplayer game the generation goes until everyone passes too, it’s just that it’s broken up into 2 actions at a time per player so there’s no need to wait in solo
What you do with all the heat after you already reached the maximum temperature?
There are cards in the deck that do other things with heat production, but not a lot of them. For example there is a card that lets you convert heat production to money production (Insulation), If you go into a heavy heat production strategy it is important to change strategies once the max temp is getting close to being met. There is also the Thermalist award so be sure to grab that!
To add to what Steve said, cards like caretaker contract can be useful.
I never stress about heat because it's the cheapest parameter to terraform; O2 is always the most difficult part of the solo game because it's very expensive unless you have a good engine for it - e.g., water-splitting plant, ironworks, steelworks, ore processor, regolith eaters, 7-8+ plant production, standard tech to make greenerys cheaper (especially great with credicor).
I like the game but I didn't like it with the Venus Next expansion it just increased the probability of having more useless cards (or so it seemed to me, only played 1 game with the expansion).
The main rule then I cant get from any video I've seen is Tags.
Here is a PDF of the rules, I think it's the seventh page.
If you’re still curious it seems that tags are just requirements for certain cards to be played. So if a card has 3 science symbols next to the cost it means that you need to have played cards with at least 3 science symbols on the top right.
@@vincentj.9057 I got it, however thanks a lot for the follow up
