My wife was talking to me this morning about our last game of eclips and how there seems to be a way to exploit the last turn.since you don't need your minerals or science anymore after that last turn, there is no reason you couldn't stretch yourself thin and use every available influence disk you have and just trade away your science and minerals to pay for it. she thinks on the last turn you shouldn't be able to trade to pay for your actions like that.
she also though it would be kind of an exploit to say colonize a 3VP hex, knowing you wont be able to pay for it until the upkeep phase where you can take an influence disk off one of your 1vp hexes.
i told her i didn't really see how this was an issue or a real way to cheat to get extra VP's. since if there was a tie, you look at how many resources you have stored and that things like this were only happening because we were playing a 2 player game and had a lot of space on the board to expand.
does anyone else think she has a point? what are your thoughts on the last round, since you don't have to worry about funding for another turn?
