I'm also retracting my provisional. Now that I realize those with some serious drives can reach the GC and there are a few with such drives I'm thinking of actually doing a build order instead of a Pass. It's probably better to be safe than sorry.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

So it is now on Twelve, Tapper passed and was only reacting if someone said something nasty to him with a ship in his hex


Are we skipping Morg and D'rek?


No, I am waiting on an action from both.

You cannot be sure of that. just add an interceptor to your hex and my odds go up loads.

@Twelve
OK good enough. I was going to pause and await further instruction for that reason anyway. Take nothing for granted in Round 4. Yeesh.

Last game with 7p I think I researched advanced materials in round 4 and passed! No alliances makes for a much more hectic game. Once everyone was settled into their nice comfy friendships last time, the middle of the game was pretty uneventful.

So so eager to pass. I'm curious, how many reactions do you think you can afford? Especially with a two front war?

Do the simulation. Nothing you can field scares me. When I take your homeworld which I will I will continue on into your territory.

Drek won't want to fight me yet. Twelve is happy enough in the centre, you are my picnic

I do believe you're getting more over confident even as your doom is looming. I guess I shouldn't care.



And I don't.

Just so folks can think about future moves (if morgy gets back), my provisional is to pass also. Not much more I can do, really.

Tatts that is your job. I have stopped PMing people because I just assume that you have done it already. Heck you PM'd me this morning letting me know it was my turn so clearly my assumptions were correct.

Actually now that I looked at the Map D'rek might want to watch out as the Ancient Hive tile is within Tatts reach now too.

And Morgoth can take out 2 of her systems if he's willing to lose his home system...never notice that before.

That sounds silly, I would never do that.

Give me a little to adjust to the current map and I'll have my orders in.

Let the low computer pea-shooter war commence between D'rek and Morgoth.

Over to you D'rek. Any moves or are you passing??

Looks like SS has a provisional pass order in, and tapper has passed as long as nobody invades him. I am passing on the condition that Khell or Gnaw don't make any last-minute betrayals or other assorted funny business.

So Twelve, you need to put in a provisional I guess.

@All,

Was thinking about our break. I don't think tapper's vacation means we need to wait to see the results. Tapper isn't involved in any conflict at the moment and unless somebody is planning an invasion (which is highly unlikely at this point) we can just assume he'll pass until the end of the round. So Tapper, if you were to submit an early turn upkeep (with the caveat that an invasion means we would wait for orders) then you're all finished up and the other players are free to complete their remaining actions.

If you have any secret orders to issue or surprise reactions you're trying to squeeze in at the end of the round maybe you could leave your orders with Morgoth or D'rek since they're 100% disconnected from you and the territories you can access.

Anyway, if that works we can at least see the results of the combat round, I can draw new techs, and we can break on a high note.
