Fun fact, Khell can beat... no one he is so screwed.



I'm coming after you as soon as I've dealt with CF.

@Khell, what happened to trying to recover by beating an ancient? There's only one there.

I haven't stated a strong desire to overrun you either. That supernova is going to get real dangerous to keep real quick, and your homeworld was vulnerable and convenient to take last round, but I also have other opponents to worry about, you know.

You know what you must do, CF. Conquer Delta Eridani, forcing Khell to "walk the plank", as it were, into Betelgeuse, leave him in there and don't let him out. See if with only a couple planet slots he can research enough to stay ahead of the supernova. If not... player elimination via Supernova. It's like being a Bond villain in Eclipse.

@CF - in the next board update, you'll need to move a second disc onto RES and one of the extra discs onto the influence track of my player board - looks like you moved the tech tile but otherwise didn't do the rest of my 2nd action.

The ancient hex is not as valuable as the supernova hex, although that discovery might prove useful (yeah, right). I'm currently debating whether to protect one hex, try and protect both hexes (probably impossible), protect one hex and go after ancient (also difficult), or attack you.

The way I see it, the ancient has a 1 in 6 chance of flying out in my direction. If I leave it one more round, I may be able to fly in there and just claim the hex, if things fall my way, without a fight. So I won't be going after the ancient, I don't think.


With enough builds and upgrades, I believe I can beat your cruiser and all 5 of your interceptors, so the option to attack you is tempting, though doing so would get me extremely close to bankrupting myself out of the game.

@CF,

My upkeep is currently - 7 it will be - 10 after my 3rd action but currently it is -7



I think it is right anyway. I don't know why I thought it was wrong.

Does anyone have a record of what the starting tech draw was?

Action rescinded, if possible.

Yeah I realized after I answered I may have misunderstood what she was asking. I have a list of all the tech that has been drawn in the game. I'm not sure how accurate it is and I can't tell you when it was drawn. I try and update it for new tech draws and when they are purchased to give me an idea of what is still available even if it's not right at the moment.

Through powers of reduction you should be able to work backwards to see the first tech draw no?

Ok, feeling down again. There is so no point to me doing anything. I know what CF intends, and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it, unless someone else goes and attacks him.


But you all seem perfectly happy to watch him pick me apart and grow ever stronger, just so long as he isn't touching you, right?

CF is going to pin my ships in Eridani, fly some to Betelgeuse, fly others past me to the ancient hex, take both those hexes, probably lose in Eridani, but then take it next round. So that's three powerful hexes that everyone is just going to let him have.
