Great vid. Ones rules clarification though, Sarween Tools only gives you discount when you use "PRODUCTION" ability. So when you use Chaos mapping or other things that tell you to "Produce" you do not get the discount. Sarween is tied to the specific game mechanic "PRODUCTION" which is related to, but different from "Produce".

@@averybailey2500 very cool, thanks for the positive feedback, sorry for the error. I just looked it up in the FAQ, and you are definitely correct. In my defense, the wording on the cards was a bit vague. ;) As for the Empyrean, You’re wish is my command. They will be the third video for the series. Stay tuned and be sure to share episodes of the series so that hopefully it does well enough for me to go through every faction. :)

Sarween is a base tech. Unless you mean use the skip for factory 2. That is the only way I would get ff2. I think I would rather upgrade carriers since dreadnought 2 is easy to get to and feels necessary.

Another possible (but likely weaker) opening if you are left with Diplomacy is to, use 1 carrier and your Floating Factory to capture two systems, save 1 trade good from taking over planets to use with your home planet to research Gravity Drive. Then, use Diplomacy to refresh planets to get 6 influence. Finally, activate Mekatol Rex, and use Gravity Drive to give your cruiser +1 movement, and activate your agent to make you remaining carrier on your home system to move as fast as your cruiser, so both move 3 and can reach and take control of Mekatol Rex in the first round.

@TheBoardGameKaptain 3 года назад
Very interesting, I'll have to take a closer look at this strategy. Thanks so much for posting. :)
@SilentNSly
@SilentNSly 3 года назад
Personally, I prefer starting with Warfare, and researching Sarween Tools in round 1. Use a carrier and two infantry to take two planets, giving 2 trade goods. Assume you follow research and use your home planet and 1 trade good to research. Then use your Floating Factory (FF), your carrier and two infantry to take over two more planets, bringing you to 3 trade goods. With the discount from Sarween Tools, you can build a Dreadnought and two more infantry. If you are lucky, you might even get to follow construction and place a Space Dock with your other Space Dock, however think of this as a bonus if it happens. Play Warfare to get your command token back from the system with your Space Dock.

From what I've read you can't actually do this as the Cruisers move value is still 2 for the sake of the agent. It just gets a temporary+1 for that activation but it's moved value does not technically change to 3. So your Carrier can only move 2 with the Agent unless another player has researched Cruiser 2 or another unit that has base 3 movement speed.

Taking MR super early is a really good way to put a big target on your back. Everyone will be your enemy. You will take an early lead, but then you will lose it and probably take a big beating in the process that you may not recover from.

One more error coming stemming from the fact that you seem to own one the earlier prints of the game. Hypermetabolism (green tech with 2 pre-reqs) increases number of tokens you get from 2 to 3 (not from 1 to 2 as original print states). There was an errata for that plus newer prints have that error corrected on technology cards. Thanks for your work on these - hope you will have the opportunity to power through all factions :)

Sarween Tools and AI-Development Algorithm only work with regular PRODUCTION (Warfare passive or Token in system with a Space Dock) Chaos Mapping does not work with it and the nice new surprise produce gimmicks from Arborec also do not work with it. This important rule is unfortunately not very intuitive since it depends on specific wording, making it even harder when you play a translated version of the game. PS: i know it got already mentioned in the comments, just wanted to add on to this point.
@TheBoardGameKaptain
@TheBoardGameKaptain 3 года назад
Indeed, they should definitely have been more clear with their wording. I did also post a correction video by the way. I don't know if you saw it, I'll post a link below. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nm5BrHhgfoI.html

if you go for War Sun (AI-DK lets you skip one red) Sarween Tools (Y) (2 free infantry/fighters per space dock every round) AI-DK(R) + Duranium Armor(R) i would try to get Duranium Armor with a red skip, since the Self Assembly Routines is very clunky and not so great imho. You can get 4 Mechs out early for 4 Trade Goods and then use SAR to destroy one Mech on a less useful spot to get it to the frontlines, giving you 1 Trade Good every round. And if they die in combat you get the initial cost back. but researching the Tech costs you 4 Resource and a Token in the first place, so you break even in late game. i think researching a unit upgrade serves you better in the long run.

Loosing your homesystem as Saar, or not having a spacedock stationary there DOES come with a huge loss ... You can't build of WARFARE secondary (which lets you build a ready fleet that is not locked by an activation token). Also, Sarween tools do NOT reduce costs while using Chaos Mapping.
@TheBoardGameKaptain
@TheBoardGameKaptain 2 года назад
I'm aware of the mistake I made with Sarween Tools. As to your other point, I understand what you mean, and it is a disability for sure, but it is a very minor one in my opinion. It's certainly much more minor than what happens to any other faction that loses their home system. ;)
