I wish I was next to Khell. Then me and him could just explore our backyards, building shrines and orbitals and staying out of the rest of you's way while you fight over everything :)



That's all I ever wanted, D'rek, that's all I ever wanted. But alas, this galaxy is a cruel mistress.

I wish I was exploring your back... no don't go there. Too easy.



Scandalous! D'rek, prepare your dreadnaught fleet, advance towards Tattersail's backyard and rip him a new one!

You guys are taking my stated intent of finding a brown planet waaaaaaay too far.

Shh, Tats, it's but a cosmetic change. I'm trying to play the 'nice, gentleman guy' card in order to see D'rek's pair of planets - it's all an act.

Well, this has escalated quickly.
Khell for now I have no problem with diplomatic relations.
I'm thinking I will build 2 ships. Either 1 cruiser + 1 interceptor or 1 dreadnought. Whichever is stronger.In the second world I influenced.
Khell, I put a materials cube on the ambassador.

Well, you will have to choose dreadnaught or cruiser+interceptor.

The main consideration, IMO, is that you don't want to be spending actions having to upgrade all 3 ship types later on, so pick now if you're going to go for 2 dreadnaughts or for a few cruisers to be your main "backbone" of your fleet and stick with that for a bit. Neither one is really wrong. The dreadnaughts can have more parts so they can be tougher, but are a bit more expensive and you only get two (but you move more bang for fewer moves).

Good times. Can I please place my hex so that the wormholes align to join with me and EM, but not to IH's hex. And I'll put an influence tile down, colonise those two (money and materials?) planets, and accept diplomatic relations with EM, and I'll put a money cube down on my ambassador tile. Phew.

And is that a discovery tile on my new hex?

I though you would build a Dreadnaught and the move to attack the double ancient sector with a cruiser and Dreadnaught but in ter est ing.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

No, Khell, resist, the moment's passed and it's not even that funny! This is all Tattersail's fault.

He can still be doing that - build this action, move next action.

It doesn't take a lot of exploration before you move your interceptors?
