There is also the possibility for a gimmicky "megaturn", such as overpaying a lot for masterpiece, to then put all of the 8 points on Aqueduct and then buying a single Estate or even a feodom, if available. This beats out the point gain of a province and helps the deck more, if your deck can handle the 10 stop cards. This strategy, more than any other megaturn suffers from 4 or 5 player games, because chances are high somebody else already took the points before the megaturn can happen. | There is also the possibility for a gimmicky "megaturn", such as overpaying a lot for masterpiece, to then put all of the 8 points on Aqueduct and then buying a single Estate or even a feodom, if available.
