Sounds interesting. How does your "robot" player work?
Well, it's not entirely automatic but this is what I have now to enable me to play one side when I play solitaire.
On the Robot's turn.
- Flip the top card to be the Robot's play for the turn
- If it's for an empty section, or a Tactics card that cannot be used, discard it and flip the next card which the Robot must play.
- If the card is First Strike set it aside for the Robot to use later and flip the next card.
- If the card is a section card and the Robot's side has a hand of at least one less card than you roll 1 "I am Spartacus" die to generate an extra order for the Robot that can be used in any section.
- Perform the best moves and attacks you can for the Robot.
First Strike
While the Robot has a First Strike card set aside you must check to see if it will use it whenever you make a close combat attack.
- Flip the top card into the discard pile. If the test card is a section card then the Robot will play First Strike.
- In addition, if the test card is I am Spartacus then re-shuffle the deck
Victory
[Optional] If there are any objectives for your side then you must claim at least one for victory. The Robot does not have to do the same.
