I influence the Galactic Center. Hold off on colonizing the planets. I keep changing my mind. What is the discovery tile I scored? Most likely I'll take it as points but if it's a ship part I may keep it.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Khell - do you want to influence Zeta Draconis? You flipped your colony ships in battle so you won't be able to put any cubes down before upkeep, so you may judge it to be worth waiting until next round to influence it. Let me know.

CF/Twelve - what's happening in Beta Leonis?


I don't want it and I think cf was going to wait though cf you can put two money cubes down so you should factor that into your decision.

I saw you guys going back and forth on it, but I'd like a clear final decision, please.

If I could indeed put down 2 money cubes then I would take it this round, but seeing as how I already used all 3 colony ships, this isn't an option for me right?

It's always an option, just might not be a reasonable one.

Just Tattersail's upkeep left, but we'll let him do that since there is choice involved.

OP images updated.

Tattersail's board and the Supply board are up to the start of the Upkeep Phase

Player boards other than Tattersail's, the Game Board and the Circle Map are updated to the end of the Cleanup Phase.


...and yes, that sector really is named Iota Bootis...

I will wait to see if this is right, I assume that production happens and then the discs that you sent to the graveyard are put back after the upkeep phase in the clean up phase. If not there are only a couple of figures wrong. Easily fixed.

D'rek you are amazing for modding this game. I can see how complex it is and for you to understand it completely awes me.

Ever since Imperial Historian posted that link regarding the Board Game Cafe I have been dreaming of opening my own. If I could make it work I would. I'd have to draw up a business plan, apply for business loan, consider major changes to my life. I would love to do this full time, the risk is there though. I am married, we pay rent, we need the income I generate at the moment. That is the main thing stopping me I think.

@d'rek

Thanks for doing my upkeep, I wasn't just being lazy, I was waiting on an answer about the rules.

Was it an option for me?

Quote

It's always an option, just might not be a reasonable one. [/size]


my lack of colony ships makes it "not an option" right? If I was able to colonize then influencing could actually have been profitable for me right?

Just wanted to be clear on that, cause if colonization sans-colony ships was possible then I did want to influence.

@Twelve,


What havoc shall we wreak this round good buddy? We can continue to run rampant in EM's undefended sectors or take a breather round to bolster border defenses. I can see how "running rampant" isn't really encouraged by the setup of the game because you very quickly stretch yourself too thin to be effective.


with our relatively narrow borders we could probably turtle and win on research & other minor victory point stuff. I mean, the GC is sure to be contested eventually, but with your glass-cannon dreadnoughts/interceptors and my high initiative interceptors to back them up with 2 damage ion canons, whoever tries is going to feel the hurt in a big way.
