Description

--- **TLDR**: Self-Replicating Robots, a blue promo card (210) costing 7 with 2 Science tag requirements, enables resource placement on Space/Building cards for reduced-cost play. Key mechanics include: - *Cost and prerequisites*: 7 cost, requires 2 Science tags. - *Primary action option 1*: Reveal and place a SPACE or BUILDING card from hand onto it, adding 2 resources. - *Primary action option 2*: Double resources on an existing card placed here. - *Persistent effect*: Allows playing placed cards as if from hand, with cost reduced by resources on them. Self-Replicating Robots is a blue promo card (210) that costs 7 to play and requires 2 Science tags. Its core action provides two mutually exclusive choices: reveal a SPACE or BUILDING card from hand, place it directly onto Self-Replicating Robots, and add 2 resources to it; or double the resources already on a card placed there. The ongoing effect transforms placed cards, enabling their play as if held in hand while dynamically reducing their activation cost based on the exact number of resources atop them, facilitating strategic resource accumulation and efficient deployment of high-value Space or Building cards. ---
