Looks good to me!

Gnaw will we be getting a precombat map update?

You know, I've been trying to positively reinforce the importance of the first page by patting you on the head for reading/using it.

The result was supposed to be more people using it. Not you stopping.

BOARD UPDATE 42 - Round 8 - Turn 8.7
LAST FULLY COMPLETED TURN: 7
WAITING ON: SS, D'rek

New boards posted

Please triple check for accuracy as this is the version I'm resolving from once SS and D'rek have taken actions. The action phase is over once turn comes round to Twelve and he passes.

Sorry. I have a dedicated Tab open just to look at the map and I hadn't hit refresh since I first logged in in the morning. I'll take a look at it now.

Thanks

I've got to run to the drug store and pick up a scrip the doctor called in. If CF hasn't responded by the time I get back, I'll use ancient rules to pick targets. (And CF can retreat since he nuked 318 though I'm sure he won't want to)

Draw rep and cleanup in ~1.5 hour. New map also.

Morgy since you know what tech is coming, do you care to choose direction now or wait until it's officially time to choose?

Naw. He is going to pick clockwise for his rotation. Even if he doesn't I think I still have enough points without maxing out my tech to win. It will just be a little more interesting is all.

Right now, I consider it to be the biggest factor in determining who will win this game. But no hard feelings one way or another, Morgoth.

You mean counter clockwise?

[twelve]

Clockwise so I get to pick second on tech. Counter clockwise all the cheap tech will be gone so I'll be one short of filling out my tech VP.

[Morgoth]

I'll go before D'rek, of course Which means clockwise, as Tapper passed first, yes?

Au contraire, the biggest factor in determining who will this game is me, Khell the Kingmaker. Everything I've done has led up to this moment.

Twelve, if we go clockwise, watch out for my turn 4 move.
And if we go counter-clockwise, watch out for turn 5.

Yes clockwise would mean that you would take your actions before D'rek. If you want to go after her then by all means chose counterclockwise. But if you still want to help me win then upgrade your computer situation so you can take an artifact hex away from her. She will be going for the artifact link this round. That is the only way she can come close to catching me. I'd grab it but it hurts my point situation enough that she could catch up without it going an alternate strategy.

So since the great battle with Tatts isn't coming until next round I went ahead and did my upkeep for round 8.
