Universal Rule Planet Abilities
Basic (Pessimistic)

2/25/2016 At one point, Pessimistic cost 0 credits. On February 25th, I decided Pessimistic should cost 1. At the time, the outcome of an attack was tied to the cost of a planet, and a planet that cost 0 was problematic. Attacking is no longer related to planet costs, so we could introduce a future planet with cost zero. However, I think the design space that’s available when all planets cost at least one credit is more valuable than the novelty of a “free” planet. (editor’s note: Starting Planet currently costs 0).

1/8/2016  Added Pessimistic - you cannot win while this is in play. It upgrade version is very expensive, but can win you the game.

7/22 Two playtests with 5 players each. Both were won via “insta-win” cards (Lonely Victor, Aggressive Victor), which I think merit some changes.

7/25 Insta-win Replacements. Aggressive Victor: When you attack, add a counter. +2 VP per counter.

7/26/2016 Pessimistic should be “you can’t win.”

7/27 Attacking Victor: 2VP per counter is probably too much, especially as the attack doesn’t even have to be successful. 1VP should be enough.
