Atlas + 2 Juno, firing Atlas to reach sub-orbital (d3). Atlas outcome is a major failure; vehicle is lost. Paying ¤5 to remove that.
Firing the Soyuz: success, paying ¤10 to remove.
No money and no hardware, so I’ll end the turn here.
@lalunaverde to play.
Poke @lalunaverde (but I’ll be out tomorrow).
I’m not sure why the moves. I’ll buy Saturn and Atlas. Atlas on top of Saturn and fire to EO. Pay off outcome. If leftover moneys, buy Junos.
Saturn draw is a minor failure - paid off for ¤5, and the damaged Saturn remains with you.
Bought 5 Junos.
OK, this is the end of 1957 round 1. Remaining money is 4 for ОКБ-1, 5 for ISAS, which isn’t enough to put a joint venture together.
I’ll spend my 4 on a pair of Probes.
@yashima do you want to buy anything with that 5? Anyone else, any other actions before end of year?
I’m done thanks
A note, by the way - if you just want to test a rocket, you don’t need to put a payload on it. You can fire it off on its own.
So… since I don’t have enough to form a joint venture on my own …I think I’ll just buy another probe and 3 more Junos please.
Done.
OK, nobody has any money or any craft in being, so I’m going to declare end of year (shout now if you want to do anything after all).
2 cards each on Atlas and Soyuz.
2 cards on Space Shuttle; 2 Probes.
2 cards on Saturn; 4 Junos, 1 Probe.
2 cards on Saturn, 1 Saturn, 1 Atlas, 1 Juno
2 cards on Saturn.
SAC’s Saturn is repaired.
Everyone’s money resets to ¤30.
Turn order:
Could we get a picture of the equipment/ modules etc? I can’t quite make out the prices on the picture here. Or is there an easy to find list of them?
Roger. I have 5 junos in EO
Check. Ill fix the TTS save in a moment.

That’s great, thanks!
I am up, right?
I should have:
–
Buy another Saturn for 15
–
Same setup as last time. I should name my rockets. This one would then be “Hybris comes before the explosion #2”
Stage 1: 1 Saturn
Stage 2: 1 Juno
Stage 3: 1 Juno
Payload: 1 Probe
Then fire Stage 1 towards Earth Orbit
Buy off whatever happens and keep the rest of the money for now.
Saturn draw is a Minor Failure. Your inventory on Earth is now 4 Junos, a Probe, and a damaged Saturn, and you have 10 money left. Anything else during this turn?
Can I test a Juno? And buy off whatever.
If I have 5 Spacebucks left I’ll test a second juno and buy off failures.
(There is nothing more satisfying than a minor failure in a Saturn parked on Earth.)
Absolutely 
Couldn’t agree more. I will have a nicely repaired one next turn.
First Juno draw is a success, so ¤10 to remove it uses all your money. 3 Junos left in stock.
@Lordof1 to play.
I remember from last game that someone was selling payload to orbit… do we need joint ventures for that, too?
Just asking for someone whose Saturn’s only have a single result left on them.
