Module talk:Terraforming Mars

The module has the fifth player, yellow, but you can not select it at the start or via the resign option (Didn't know where else to put this comment)

How to play
No rules enforcement in this module. You play as if you were in front of the board game.

Just a few securized/automized elements, though :

- cards from corpo era can be sent in one click to the main projects cards deck

- right clic on the projects card deck allows for multi-pick : chose 10 for the 1st research, then 4 for each future generation. The number only applies for the next pick-up, afterward it's going back to default 1 by 1.

- each player has 3 boards (v 1.1 and after) :

--Map, visible by all, with coloured cubes as markers, and units

--Hand, hidden from other players. Cards MUST be placed here from the main board projects Deck, so their name is hidden from each player. During research phase, if you want to buy the cards, you have a reminder of 3M to pay for each. If discarded, they will go to discard pile as hidden from other players.

--Cards, visible by other players, but private. This means one can't move cards on another player's board. This to avoid looking at the red cards after they are played. On this map, blue cards may have a UNIT and/or ACTION action. The UNIT adds a unit cube on the card, the ACTION is a reminder that the cards has been activated, and should receive a coloured cube until next generation.

- main map toolbar contains counters which can be changed manually. In addition to what there are 4 buttons to act on the White Cube Markers. These must be individually placed on the map during setup : Oxygen, Temperature, and Generation are 3 different cubes ! Each of them must be placed manually, or from a saved game. Then clicking on the ad hoc button makes both the counters and the cube move ! Plus a message log telling which player should increase their TM (or victory point level).

Play by respecting the rules, and all is fine.

Manual count of each player's TM is to be done during game and at the end for all bonuses, and cards VP, and objectives/rewards as well as forest .... well ... everything .... :). In doubt, right click on a card to check possible action, like hide/show action/unit discard ... or drag and drop.
