underflow 5

Basic strategy: Mulligan for magnum opus or test run. Turn one, either get a mopus into play and stabilize, or cheat out a femme (test run, london library) if you suspect an early astro score attempt. From there, try to draw into library and 1-2 femmes, make money, install RDIs, and try to lock both R&D and the scoring remote.

Cards I'm considering: Patron, tech writer, daily casts, a real breaker suite (inti/zu/lady?), out of the ashes, some memory solution

Is this better than chameleon: No clue. :l

Seems fascinating, but with all those extra clicks spent pulling femmes back into hand, it seems like you might have difficulty setting up pressure on more than one server.

So, in a few (5?) games of play-testing, you can only really run one server a turn; brahman helps you return femmes to hand, and sac cons let you float one for a turn. The basic idea would be to run R&D with either 2-3 RDIs out or an indexing, then next turn threaten the scoring, then R&D again after the cards you've seen filter into their hand, and so on.
