4er. I won with 13. They had about 5 each.

I built an isolated black-red monument and hanged on to it for a long time.

Guanin placed his black leader and a blue tile on his first turn, so I put my blue leader in that kingdom. I would later win 2 blue external conflicts.

I won an internal conflict with my green leader to take control of a green monument Guanin built, which I hanged on to for a little while.

Guanin initiated a Red external conflict with me which I won despite having a 1-5 disadvantage on the board. He got greedy and opted not to play any and I played all 4 of my red tiles and won.

I ended the game by giving a treasure to another player.

Sand Goblins (me) and Deep Dwarves, versus Shadow Elves and Guild Dwarves.

The Sand Goblins used Mirage and summoned Silt and Biter to go after the Shadow Elves' summoner. He then summoned 2 champions (one of them the dragon) and killed off my two champions, but his summoner was down to 2 hitpoints.

We pressed his summoner and avoided fighting his dragon. He ran his dragon and summoner to the other side towards my summoner, who was down to 3 hitpoints himself. And then we realized something: I could move my summoner up to Sandstorm his dragon back, his summoner in, and shoot at his summoner with mine and a newly summoned Shaman for 4 dice (plus a Sandstorm die) and kill him!

It was my first time using Sandstorm offensively.

The Guild Dwarves then got the Hammer Quake champion out but we just avoided him and went after the summoner directly and won.

6er with action cards. I was the Spy and we lost.

First round was a Resistance and I voting. I voted to pass the mission.

Second round was two Resistance members and I voting. I voted to pass the mission.

Third round I selected two Resistance members, a Spy and myself to vote. I voted to pass the mission and counted on my teammate to vote a fail, which he did.

Two vetoes later my teammate selected himself and two Resistance members for the fourth round.

Last round saw three vetoes, and then I selected myself and three Resistance members (I had convinced them that I was a Resistance member since I voted pass on each of the first three times.) Unfortunately the one Resistance member left out vetoed the selection (naturally), another Resistance member vetoed it just in case, and my teammate vetoed it as well because he thought it'd be too suspicious if he didn't. It was a shame as we'd have won it right there if he hadn't, but he was counting on the selection not going through.

They had to pass the next group selection, and the one Resistance member I framed had an action card that let him steal the group assignment task. In other words if he was a Spy he had an auto win, so they figured he wasn't. And we lost.

4er with Leaders. Guanin won with the Pyramid.



3er with Leaders. Yao Yao won with Babylon.

He had 3 extra symbols with his wonder, a guild card, and a leader card. I stuffed 2 Greens under my wonder (Coloseum) and still couldn't stop him from getting 70+ points in Green. Maybe I should've gone focused Green (one symbol) myself to stop him.
