Gnaw finds ZETA CHAMAELEONTIS - ooooh, backdoor warp portal!

zeta chamaeleontis - Gnaw.png

Shit so much for locking the door and hiding in the basement
Influence, colonize, rotate one click counterclockwise.

You can discard it if you really don't want to have a warp portal near you.

I know. But if others can live with hives near them, I can live with this.

[Galactic Council]

Gnaw?

What do you think of discarding to get rid of the warp portal? I'll hold off telling you the discovery until you decide.


nevermind, beat me to it

You find 6 materials. You can keep em or keep the 2VP.

Shit son, I think Gnaw found damn near all the material planets in the game. If he takes this material bonus he's going to be able to mass a totally decent fleet next round.

"If"??
He'll yes I takes the materials.

@Gnaw,

Ok, done. You are at 10 materials now.

PS.

Way to not sally-out on the warp-portal too. Those things were key to success last game for Twelve and I.

And whose turn is it? And which number is it?

Edir: Page 1 has action 2 ranging to action 5. I'm assuming some of those haven't occurred yet

Would the Mechanema be interested in exchanging ambassadors?

Assuming the machines are interested in joining a third diplomatic treaty after he accepts mine after I clear the clutter off.

@ twelve: If you force me to tally my own VPs, I will lie. Just so you know.

I currently have 50VPs.


See, just like that!

Heh. That count looks correct to me. Khell, double check mine please. 47, right?

Hmm, I count 48 actually. Perhaps you forgot that 1VP you gained from proposing diplomatic relations but not actually going through with it but then exploring before discovering a discovery tile which you then flipped a colony ship over for?

Easy mistake to make really.

But I thought he had a racial bonus where he could roll a dice in the cleanup phase and the result of the dice roll times two minus the number of pulsars discovered plus the number of ancient ships on the board, if greater than the number of discovery tiles placed on the board but not yet flipped over, disregarding ancient orbitals of course, gave him an additional number of VPs equal to the number of materials planets he controls that are in hexes bordered by at least two hexes whose names are rooted in victorian latin instead of classical greek latin?

D'rek, come on, that's only valid in odd-numbered rounds! Even numbered rounds he has to roll three die before discarding the highest-numbered one which then goes to the person sitting at a 75 degree angle to him anti-clockwise who then multiplies the number by the number of ships they own plus two for every upgrade but divided by those upgrades which come from the third technology track which then forces Gnaw to give over 3 materials in exchange for...oh, hang on. Gnaw is Terrans, right.

Then, no, sorry, none of this applies. See, that's why Terrans are the dull race to play with.

It's ok.

I'm not going to process action round 4 moves until I hear from Gnaw and SS on hex orientation anyway. You've got a bit of time.

Uh. You mean action round 3 moves right? Because Khell hasn't started action 4 round yet.

****Release to Press Immediately******
The Central Committee of the Terran Union has determined that the forthcoming conviction of former Finance Minister Brevity Trygalle for treason, bribery, extortion, pandering, pimping, and sundry lesser charges has subsequently led to findings of widespread corruption in that Ministry. Therefore, following ex-Minister Trygalle's execution tomorrow, the Finance Ministry will be abolished. All offices and employees currently in the employ of the Finance Ministry will be transferred to the Finance Department of the Ministry of Peace and Public Safety under the outstanding leadership of High Admiral Nok de Napan.

The High Admiral has already taken the bold step of pardoning many of the tainted Ministry department heads and offered them the chance to redeem themselves as crew members of a special diplomatic mission aboard the interceptor TUSS-1492 Kamikaze. The Admiral declined to provide any details other than "They're brave sacrifice will be remembered by their loved ones I'm sure."

I don't get it.

It means I keep looking north. And I keep getting this itchy feeling on my back, right between the shoulder blades.

And I'm wondering how much disappointment one englishman can take in a day.

I'm going to think about my action 4 for a bit.

I thought that he was going to follow through with his Kamikaze mission into Vega with his interceptor.

Last game I didn't prepare for it, this game I will, but you still have me worried, i'd prefer we share diplomatic relations and that can only do us both a favour. Extra cube from Morgy and me, think of all the good you can do with them

Tatts wants to be friends with you. Tatts wants to be friends with me. Tatts wants to be friends with the Khan.

But Tatts also says he wants to win.

My only problem with all of that is I can see only one way for Tatts to accomplish his goals.
