Can you change the site to the mobile version? Or if it is in the mobile version change it to the full version of malazan empire? Another way is to open it and save it as a picture, then go into your gallery to view. I have an android so it works for me, it just isn't clear, so looking at it on the PC is the best way forward for me.

So the wormhole generator will cost me 15, can I flip my colony cards at the beginning of the round?

....if I decide to take it that is.


Warp Portal is only 8 materials. You have 8 materials.

I use both skins, mobile and mezla, the mobile skin doesn't let you rep, so that's why I keep switching. It's the same issue with both. The only way I can actually get the link for the jpg is by reposting the op.
When I do as you suggest and 'save image' it appears as a blank screen in my camera roll.
Serious, I've been enjoying this game so much, it's makin me want to renege on my life pledge to apple. It's just frustrating.

Few more things I can try yet.

The advantage you have is that you can actually get the app "eclipse" where us android users cannot.

Can you not access another PC?

Well, I managed to get half of it. The top half.
I just downloaded and tried Opera mini, worked a lot quicker and managed to give me a little sneak peak. But that's all. How fucked up?
Also, my dolphin app has just been destroyed completely. It's forever locked in a loop of trying to download the image, then crashing.
It won't allow me to do ANYTHING to stop the process! Ha! And when I shut it down and start it back up it just does the same. I'll have to delete it. Safari just keeps timing out and crashing. It's sooooooo weird. Never known my phone to do anything like this. Ah well. Looks like I'll have to wait till she gets in.
Thing is, on her phone, it's crystal clear. Right down to the small text.

Well actually, I nearly bought an iPad retina a few weeks ago with my bonus, exactly for that reason (it's iPad only, not iPhone). So I'm still losing out.
Haha you think if I had the actual app I'd be hanging out here? Pfft.
I still might get one.

Haha. It wasn't a joke. It has that sound though doesn't it?

Do you like Harry Potter? Is that where the Snape comes from? SeverusSnape? Why is he solid? You could have went for OpaqueSnape too and then why Snape over Shape? OpaqueShape sounds very good.

Yeah I like HP. It's more about the solid though.
It's just a play on words because solidsnake is always already taken. So it just became easier to change the k to a p. It stuck.
I then found out a few years later, (this was my original PSN name, so like circa 2005?) there was an achievement on Lego Harry Potter called Solidsnape. It involved hiding- of course!
I was quite proud that I'd obviously thought of it first.

Solidsnapesonaplane was already taken?

So what are you planning? What are your thoughts? You going to get the wormhole generator?

I've only just looked at those developments in the expansion rules. The trade ones look good.
So the warp portal requires half a worm hole already?

But now I'm just abbreviated down to a Vicious German, Fascist, ethnic cleansing squad. Nice.

If I had any plans I'd let you know.
Honestly I would.
Fancied a new dreadnought though. :D

yeah but you can only travel to the three hexes that use them, Tappers, CF's and er CF's I think.

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. If you are not going after Tapper then Wormhole generator or warp portal seem the best choice for you, I think, although this is my second game.

Yeah I think I see now.

If I buy the mining colony development then I can afford advanced hull and warp portal and a dreadnought.

So get the hull first. (-3sc). Then get mining colony (-5$ and -5sc). Leaves me with 5 science and 0 money. But with 20 materials. I can then buy warp portal and build a dreadnought. This is 3 discs used before I even do any of the upgrades I need. I'll probably end up flipping my colony cards to bankroll this round.

See where I'm going?

It also means that any of those above can jump into my territory on a whim though eh?

Mining colony has gone. Twelve took it.

Warp portal means you can travel to anyone else's warp portal (CFs and Tappers), but they can also attack through it.

Wormhole generator means you can pass through any half warm hole (on either side), and only other people with wormhole generator can follow.

I don't realise that the developments were finite! Shite!
