Per-game notes

How to approach Terraforming Mars

01

Prioritize production in the first generations, especially money and cards that compound over several rounds.

02

Track milestone and award timing; claiming one before an opponent often matters more than squeezing out a perfect value turn.

03

Shift from engine growth to terraforming and city scoring once the game clock starts accelerating.
