You ignored my post asking this earlier

Yes. But as far as I know, Ambassadors can only be exchanged with people who you're connected with through neighbouring claimed connected systems. So all this talk about exchanges is highly premature.

That being said: Solid Snape, I am fully willing to exchange ambassadors as soon as we connect. I think it will be a very distinct advantage if we can do this ASAP, which is part of the reason why I aligned my starting tile as I did: there's a good chance to do this during turn 1.

When I did that Tatts just panicked

While you were playing Planta? I guess he just realised that amongst all the weaponry, there were no lawnmowers to equip his ships with...

It was only a matter of time.

So, when do we start today?

Oh look at that, turns out my schedule has become mysteriously free.

I'll post my first move in my OP now.

[Tattersail_]

You little scientist!

[Morgoth]

I hope some of the early starters take responsibility and prevent Orion from aquiring improved hull, and hopefully plasma cannons too.

[cerveza_fiesta]

Too funny with the posts this weekend.

I was sick yesterday and didn't get a chance to do the pop cubes as planned. Doing that right now, but I should have it completed before long. Might as well start making moves.

Khell, you're up!

[cerveza_fiesta]

Woops, I see you've updated with your first move already. Khell buys fusion drive and neutron bombs. Gnaw is next

@ SOLIDSNAPE

You need to post your population cube discard. Maybe it was in the thread but it isn't on page 1. For reference, that rule was simply "everybody choose a pop cube to discard at the beginning of the game".

@ Everybody:

Board is updated....in about 2 minutes

[cerveza_fiesta]

@All,

I also assume we're playing with the ancient dreadnought in the GC instead of the GCDS?

I'm fine with that. Seemed to postpone the GC rush a bit.

[cerveza_fiesta]

EEEK!

D'rek, do you still have a copy of the real expansion game?

I need copies of the new discovery tiles!

EDIT

Nevermind - faked a few of them and can make placeholder tiles if the missing ones happen to get drawn.

If you get a chance though, send me a scan please!

ok, board is up now

[Khellendros]

CF/GC:

You need to turn my hex one turn clockwise as I am currently illegally parked (so wormies at NW, N, S, and SE).

[Morgoth]

Tatts, If we manage to connect this round we'll both gain a strong early game benefit.

[Galactic Council]

@Khell,

Thanks, forgot about that. Done in the working file and will show up in the next board update.

Sure, but which ancient dreadnaught? There's two! I suggest the one that we didn't use in the last game, just to mix things up. If you don't have the image for it, let me know.

I thought you had already taken these from the previous game's files? If not, np I will find/scan them.


Also, you mentioned Pulsar hexes but I did post those earlier in the thread - I think I posted the whole Pulsar rules/pieces sheet and you can crop them out of it.

[D'rek]

I thought we were still posting our actions in our latest posts as well as updating the front page? Given how out-of-order we are on the front page I am going to not realize it's my turn a lot if we aren't posting them here. If that's the case, Morgy can you poke me whenever you take your turn so I know it is mine?

Yeah, I wasn't sure, but it sounds reasonable to do so. So:

For my first move, I will,

RESEARCH Neutron Bombs and Fusion Drive for 5 Science please, Bob.

I will do so. But only if you promise to be nice to me. We lost our home you know

@ D'rek,

RE:the dreadnought, rules say to choose randomly. I just flipped a coin and it happened to be the one we didn't pick last time.

I will have a look upthread for those pulsar hexes. Will include 2 placeholders for now and crop them when they get drawn. No need to hold up things for now.

I think we're ok with the disco tiles now. I know the amounts we should have and will make fakies as needed. It's just as easy as cropping and the file sizes won't get so huge that way.

@ all

Yes, please post your move here in the conversation and update page 1 too.
