Gnaw I was able to get some computer time so this is what I show as left to draw.

3 Neutron Bombs
1 starbase
3 Phase shields
1 Advanced Mining
1 Tachyon Source
1 Plasma Missile
1 Gauss Shield
1 Improved hull
1 fusion source
1 positron computer
1 advanced economy
1 Tachyon Drive
1 Antimatter Cannon
4 Nanorobots
1 fusion drive
2 orbitals
1 monolith
1 artficat key
2 wormhole generators
1 antimatter splitter
1 point defense
1 conifold field
1 sentient hull
1 tractor beam

That's 28 regular tech left. In a 9 player game all regular tech will get drawn so to "true it up" I suggest that we only drawn 9 regular tech for the next three rounds but keep the same rules for rare tech, ie if a rare tech gets drawn then we draw another tile to fullfil the minimum regular tech per round rule.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You think The Culture had these kind of technology setbacks during their glorious rise to galactic supremacy?

Hehe. Sorry.

Well, the good news is that your list matches CF's if we adjust for the 3 extra regular and 2 missing rare. Those 5 differences are in the original file.

That means that files 2-29 are irrelevant since the counts stay the same.

"Fixing" it isn't my problem. :p The Terrans are extinct.


SS, yeah, I think we have to wait on Morg.

if so I'll

Upgrade - add fusion source to dreadnaught and cruiser, placing it on top of previous energy source.

If SS is talking nonsense, as usual, keep that as my provisional.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

The evil overlord laugh would be more sinister if you could build more than 2 of them. :p

Wait, is it my turn? I thought SS was after D'rek?

Anyway, I posted my 2nd action here in thread, and have now updated the OP.
For SS's next turn:

I would vastly appreciate it if you are building the warp portal on your next action if you intend to build it at all.
It would go a long way towards alleviating the pressure in our little corner of the galaxy.

Oww. Fuck. I was hoping it wouldn't come to this and could happily build orbitals instead. Nevermind.

Build 3 cruisers in hex 230 (homeworld).

Given that we only have 3 rounds left do you think I should retreat from D'rek and concentrate my forces elsewhere? Just asking advice on endgame. Not that I have to heed what you say but thoughts are welcome.
