OK, just picked out the tech. Oh man...so many game changers. Too bad I can't share with all of you before SS sends his response.

Oh...just did the rolls on the supernova hexes too. Not telling what happens!

Man...this is like being the only guy who got an advanced copy of the next Song of Ice and Fire books. I feel so privileged and soooooooooo sorry that none of you can know the juicy details that I know!

@Gnaw
Go for big and clear in your font. Nothing stylized. Really any of the ones you picked would be fine, but embiggen them a little bit.


They're already slightly bigger in scale than they should be.

I'm thinking of simply not putting the names in. Just the hex number. I found this on boardgamegeek:

The only reason I can see to include the names is ambience.

CF, I'm not sure why but you only colonized one of the science planets on Arturus. I said to colonize both the science and advanced science slots. The player board also needs to show income of 18 not 15. Not that its going to stay that way for long. I'm going to lose at least one hex this round likely more.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You suck man.

Also if either you or Khell join in on the fight against me I'll focus the rest of my game to eliminating you both.

hahaa.....my ruse worked.

I didn't actually pick any tech....just getting you addicts all riled up.

I'll wait a short while longer for SS to respond to my PM and then just consider his upkeep final.




@Twelve,

I found that mistake...it messed me up for a few minutes until I remembered you have adv. labs.

I, for one, really like the spacey visuals and imagery and am going to be very sad if everything becomes just chunky white and black images with no soul :p

If the ONLY thing you're waiting on is SS to decide on that flipped ship, I don't see any reason to wait. At best he's going to get 4th pick.

Oh, I intend on doing both kinds. A bit more work, but worth it imo.

All those images add to file size. So one like the current for people on computers. The simpler map is mostly for phone users.

I may use just the simpler one for the in round updates and the pretty one for Round starts with maybe one after turn 3 or 4.

But the idea is to enhance enjoyment of the game, not distract from it.

All thoughts are welcome. Especially things you don't like.

Supernova rolls:

Betelgeuse: [5,3] + 2 (khell's smallest tech track) = 10. Does not explode
Deneb: [2,3] + 0 (unclaimed) = 5 does not explode

New Techs: Nothing overly game changing after all. Fusion drive and improved hull are nice cheap pickups for just about anyone at any point in the game at least. Plasma cannon never hurts either.

Sorry, no rare tech drawn.

Who's going first and who's deciding rotation again?

And since there was some disc removals and some bugs to fix like morgoth's ships, are we going to have a new start-of-the-round board update?
