But of course, I just didn’t sit and cry, I returned the favor by winning the next conflict overwhelmingly with 2 sand worms against little to nothing resistance (so I suspect that the sand worms were menacing enough). This allows me to gain a pair of battle icons. And then I could convert 6 Solaris for 1 point (lucky me to have that Solaris lying around). Ricky on the other hand managed to summon sand worms too, his Muad’dib gains benefit from sand worms in the form of intrigue cards. While Ricky and Adhit got their hands on intrigue cards at an early stage of the game, I did not and only got them later in the game.
In one conflict, it was a battle of Spice Refinery where I had a control in, me and Adhit had a tie for first place, but luckily it turned out I was forgetting one strength defender bonus, this made me win the conflict. Such a good one!
The last 2 rounds were intense. We were left amazed by Ricky's sudden increase of Strength in reveal turn (well let say we had seen this coming rounds before). He managed to accumulate up to 7 additional Strengths by the reveal alone.
My plan to seize the final conflict was ruined by the sheer amount of strengths from Ricky and had to accept second place. Luckily I got some plot cards from before that allowed me to gain some spice (14 in total) and got into 9 pts in the VP track. Adhit got into 7 pts while Ricky boosted himself up to 9 pts same as me. This led me and Ricky with a tie for first place and my plan came to fruition with all those stash of Spice came in handy after all! I won the game!
Dune Imperium (Uprising or not) always delivers good and satisfying moments of player interactions. Such a good game and I think Uprising improves the original greatly. And here I am still want to play more of Uprising!
