No brainer on that one.

Influence Rotate so wormholes face NW, SE, S Don't colonize any planets just yet.

(3$, 2S, 4M -5 upkeep)

I even guessed the orientation correctly.

• Deadlocks on the front door,
• no backdoor, and
• orbital/monolith
• Profit!

IH left a provisional to explore Tier I. I'll need confirmation of that before proceeding with his turn 4.

Morgoth: You can't research so IH can do nothing that immediately affects you, so you can take an action.

CF: Morgoth can do nothing that immediately affects you. So you can go UNLESS it's the Tier I explore.

It's totally going to be a tier I explore.

As for what I'm going to do I've got options now. Not sure what I'm going to choose though.

What happened that you can't resolve IH's Tier 1 explore provisional?

Galactic Council, on 28 October 2013 - 08:05 PM, said:

This Tier I exploration ruling stands.

There are 2 unexplored hexes in Tier 1.

Currently there are three tiles in the draw pil; 101, 103, 106. One tile in the discard pile; 104

The next Tier I explore will be picked randomly from the draw pile. The remaining tiles are removed from the game and the discard pile becomes the new draw pile.

IH left his provisional when he thought I was going to cave on the Tier I discard.

I think he'll still do the explore, but I could be wrong.

[twelve]

I agree that I don't think IH will change his mind. For him it doesn't matter as he will get 101, 103 or 106 but I don't think waiting for him will keep others from making their choices.

Keep cruiser place in home world. It is just a standard cruiser yes I can use it like all my other cruisers??

You have to keep it on the hex that it was discovered.

[Tattersail_]

-5 Upkeep = 6 discs = 3 actions + 3 hexes

Bank == $3, S 3, M 5.

Production == $6 = 3 cubes = 1 planet + 1 ambassador + 1 discard

S 3 = 1 cubes = 1 planet

M 3 = 1 cubes = 1 planet 2 unused colony ships,

1 used 2 ambassadors free

Unbuilt ships == 8 interceptors, 2 cruisers, 2 dreads, 4 starbases

Tech == neutron bombs, Gauss shield

VP = 6 = 5 from hexes + 1 ambassador 

[Imperial Historian]

Yeah I'll still tier 1 explore. That works better for me actually.

Bank == $3, S 5, M 3 Upkeep =-5

Aww D'rek, I wanted to be friends

It's just a cruiser like any others you own. It's just "built" on the hex it was discovered for zero resources via the discovery tile.
