@GP I put smaller file size pics in my page 1 update. Split into game board and player boards.

So my special move is fusion source? What does that do? Go on your chips?
Also, what does the restriction on using my colony ships mean in real terms?

That whole area of your player board is where technologies that you have researched go. You start with the Fusion Source technology, so it is already there (so you can use the Fusion Source ship part on your blueprints already). For comparison, look at my (green) player board - I started with Neutron Bombs and Gauss Shield technologies, and then researched Improved Hull technology, so all 3 are in that area of my board, but if I want Fusion Source parts I need to research it because unlike you I don't start with it.

You have 3 colony ships like the rest of us (except CF, he has 2). Every time you want to put a cube down on a slot on the board, you flip over a colony ship. They all flip up at the end of each round, but you can also flip up colony ships using the INFluence action. The rest of us all flip up two colony ships every time we do an INFluence action, but you (and GP, who is also Magellan) only flip up one colony ship when you INFluence.

But you can also flip your colony ships over to get one of a resource.

Wait. What? As in +1 money???

[Imperial Historian]

Yes Magellan's special ability is to flip a colony ship for one of any resource (money, science or production) no one else is able to do that

Shit guys, sorry bout the ridiculous file size.

I posted the .png instead of the .jpg by mistake.

I'll put the proper file up in a minute.

EDIT - Ah fuck

The file I need is on my computer at school. I thought it updated the backup on my usb drive but must have forgotten in my rush to leave today.

Will take care of it 1st thing tomorrow AM.

Until then, happy downloading I guess....

Hi CF I had colonised the money planet on PSi Capricorni. However seem as you have not done it I will do it now.

Ok thanks D'rek. I am the humans though.

Right, so my interceptor has one blank space, so can I upgrade the hull one point without having to remove anything?

You are a magellan faction. Ponyboys of magellan. Same as GP. I just put the ponyboy thing there as a joke since there are technically only supposed to be 3 magellan races

Some research confers passive bonuses. Nanorobots, for example, lets you build 3 ships per build action instead of only 2. Other research is for civilization building, for examle, monoliths. Researching monoliths lets you build monoliths, which confer victory points at the end of the game. Still others are for defense. Researching starbases gives you the ability to build starbases.

Ship part research gives you the ability to apply new ship parts to your ship blueprints during your upgrade action. Researching plasma cannons lets you apply the plasma cannon ship part to your blueprints. Researching fusion source (which you have by default) lets you apply fusion sources to your blueprints.

To make it easier, and so you know which research equates to ship parts, I've posted a list of all the available ship parts on page 1. There is a ship part reference on the board but I see it's pretty hard to read. Anything that you have researched or that is already sitting on one of your ship blueprints is available to make upgrades with. On your dreadnought, for example, you could add the fusion source (either in the free slot or by covering up the existing source) and add an extra ion cannon. All of your dreadnought ships would then have that weapon loadout.

EDIT - and normally on an action you could build 2 things or upgrade 2 ship parts. The pulsar "free actions" are restricted versions of the normal actions. For a pulsar action you can only upgrade 1 ship part or build 1 ship/starbase.

Dude!!!! Don't freak me out like that. I thought maybe I deleted the post.

It's all good. I put the previous round's actions into spoiler tags so I won't have to scroll through a bunch of info to find the current rounds actions.

[Tattersail_]

I see it when I reply to it but I cannot open that spoiler tag to see your post. Maybe it is just something to do with me.

There seems to be no info within the spoiler tags when I click "Show".

Aye, I've just tried and nothing happens. The button doesn't even change from "Show" to "Hide".

That's strange. When I do it I can see it. I do have spoilers within spoilers too but you should see that to drill down. I'll play around with the edit to see if I can fix it for you all.

[Imperial Historian]

I think the problem is that the board doesn't handle spoiler tags within spoiler tags very well, just remove the excess spoilers and you'll be fine.

Edit: it works now

[twelve]

Someone try now. I've added additional blank lines to help space out the [ spoiler] and [ /spoiler] items. I'm hoping that helps.

Yep, works now. Thank God for that - my entire gameplan was based around knowing what was within those spoiler tags! I can rest easy again.

Mine too Khell. I panicked a lot when I couldn't see his bizarre upkeep and tactical genius.
