Yea the varient with the ISC that allows u to complete any number of objectives has been a known varient for a while. They just printed the official card now....

I've been behind because of the (lack of) planets that ended up near my home. This would make it easier for the person with the poor start position to get...
Agree with Robert as well . . . sometimes you just CAN'T get points and it's not because of "poor play." I just argued from the poor player position since...
So I've been working on what to do with myself since leaving my last job. Only thing I was sure of is that I am done with corporate America. Memo's are funny...

I'm a relative newbie, having only played 3 games (and only finished 1) but I'm definitely up for playing. Maybe we should set up a game for this weekend? ...
It does say this is to be used with the varient where they are revealed at the beginning I'd love to play TI3 maybe we can get a nice 8 player game in January...
Ok, I can see that. Everyone sees what ALL the victory points are at the start and can plan accordingly. If you can come up with a Master plan to swoop in...
Wow. I say, "Wow." I know people get fed up with working for a living, but to up and quit and then open a shop is rare. Make that a game shop and it's almost...

Well to be honest, back in the early 90's I used to work with TSR...when Gygax was running the ship, and after that Atlas Games. So, actually I'm a gamer that...
