@Twelve, what is your next move? What are you thinking? I see there is no provisional. Who is your biggest concern on the board at the moment? I am curious.

I'm still waiting for Tapper to make his move. When he goes I'll let you know what I'm going to do.

There is a reason I ask, I could move a dread and pin d'rek's cruiser. That would stop her from adding that to the battle, i'd beat her cruiser and remove some population discs and set her back some. yet what would be in it for me? I think you'd benefit the most from that move otherwise next round she could have 2 dread's and 2 cruisers with all that hull which would be scary for you. So what would you offer for me to pull that move?

Edit, I wouldn't benefit because I could not possibly influence the hex or I could but I have no colony ships.

That is such a crock that you wouldn't benefit. D'rek would be set back as another strong competitor to win improving your chances, you could influence a valuable hex next round, and if next round you grab the artifact key you would get 30 resources for the price of 14. I'd assume most of them would be materials and you would be in a great position to win the game. I wouldn't know why you wouldn't do this for your own benefit.

I didn't look at it that way, I don't think the artifact key will be available next turn and I am not planning my moves on that. Plus I would have to influence the hex before I got the key which is something I am not able to afford.

Well there is one on the board and there are still two in the bag. But even if the artifact key isn't available next round you have another homeworld hex for another 3 points to your overall score. Picking up the artifact link would also next you 6 more points. I can't believe you didn't see that too. Though granted you probably wouldn't want to spend your 7 materials to get it next round but you are the only person where spending those 14 resources to get 6 points would make sense in the near future.

I did notice the key to be honest. That is one thing I was looking at for later rounds.

Well so much for SS being around more this week. />

le sigh.

[Gnaw]

Damn. All y'all are some lying bastards.




So far today the only person who hasn't lied (I think) is Khell. And that's just because he hasn't posted.

Oh, and my provisional for Turn 4 is:

Begin Decomposition

[cerveza_fiesta]

I wasn't lying one bit.

No intention of pursuing tapper. Regrouping for next round.

[Solidsnape]

Sorry man. I've had 2 little blighters to entertain all day. I'm fooked.

Right using the other pulsar, Geminga, I'm want the positron computer on the dreadnought blank space please.

I'll do my OP now.

Sorry again.

[Solidsnape]

Done.

[cerveza_fiesta]

I dunno about this turn, but if you picked up some drives SS, you'd have enough initiative and the weaponry to start doing some pretty serious damage.

[Solidsnape]

Yeah I need drives. Thinking of getting that fusion drive.
So if I'd more materials, I could have built 2 ships?

Looking back, I should have made my first build a pulsar move, then used a full upgrade turn on turn 3.

I've done it arse over tit kind of. But what the hell. I need to get those drives.

[cerveza_fiesta]

Yeah, it's best to save those pulsars for things you know you're only going to do 1 of...like building a big ship getting a single ship into position when you know you'll be moving 3 total.

Hardly the end of the world. I would pick up drives though, it would make you much more competitive.

[cerveza_fiesta]

Alternately save up for wormhole generator. Then you can blast d'rek where she's least expecting it!

[twelve]

Now where did Tapper run off too........

I always lie, and that's the truth.

Yes, you do. And you're quite slick at it. The example above is a classic example of lying by misdirection.

"I always lie." "That's the truth." They seem to be inherently contradictory. The reality is that the two statements have nothing to do with each other.

"I always lie" is a statement of fact. It can be disproven. Theoretically at least in your case.

"That's the truth" is a statement of belief. It can never be proven or disproven. "Truth" is an amorphous and ambiguous abstract concept that philosophers, theologians, politicians, and teenagers have been trying to pin down (or wiggle out of) for all of known history.

For 6 mats and 6 science converted to mats, build 2 cruisers in hex 281 (wormhole hex).

Scrap that. Research anti-matter cannon, converting 3 money to 1 science to get the required extra science.

You don't have the energy to put that on a ship at the moment do you? Is it just to prevent others nabbing them before you?

edit, just saw your dread

Twelve has a provisional in to research artifact key for 15 materials, so it's back to Khell.

I want Twelve to confirm this. If he wants me to go after D'rek then he should leave the key to me, otherwise I'm leaving her to have uber dreads and cruisers and he better be worried about the pair of us. I was going to propose diplo relations with him once I break with d'rek and someone else takes traitor card.

edit but I don't mind teaming up with D'rek to take out Twelve, it'd be d'rek and I going for the win. Just some thoughts to ponder.

edit edit. My moves are provisionals, twelve has to confirm, then CF and Khell to go, IH missed out CF's turn.
