Oh.

@Morgoth and Tapper: Yes I would prefer that Morgoth not have neutron absorber because the only way I see him being attacked is via jump drive or wormhole generator. Tapper doesn't have the balls to take on CF's starbases; he's too conservative to do that.



Tapper, feel free to prove me wrong.

I just think you're overplaying the absorbers' importance by a huge margin. I mean, they're a measure of last resort. IH or anybody can still go into the hexs and can still bomb population. Firepower and computers late in the game makes it pretty easy to win that battle.

Even if he doesn't have the absorbers, he can still defend normally with starbases and such, and might build enough defense to deter any kind of attack in the first place.

This is the type of thing you'd do to keep a powerful weapons tech out of our hands...not a 5-point tech of moderate, situational importance.

Do what you will, and take my biased advice for what it is....but it seems foolish to give your primary rivals first tech pick just because of some future "attack morgoth and CF" scenario that may or may not come to pass. We're not even being aggressive toward any of your faction!

Hmm. You must have a mouse in your pocket to be saying "we". 'Cause there are white ships in two of my hexes. And two of my discoveries on his playerboard.

[Galactic Council]

Yooohooo, Twelve. It's your turn.

I guess that's true.

Your logic still fails on the absorber point, but do what you will. I'm sure your Tatts and Grievance will appreciate you giving D'rek and Khell the opportunity to pick first tech

[Khellendros]

I have no science production to speak of, so it's hardly a risk in that sense.

[Morgoth]

Pah, I only attacked you a little bit. It was more of a tickle really. Or a small love tap.

Do not mistake my show of affection for aggression

So you'll be reaction moving your cruiser out of 105 to rejoin its mate in 104? The Riit Second Daughter is annoying when she's losing and the Admiral and I would love to send her on a re-population trip.

[Tapper]

I am present up until the 24th and after the 27th. Other than that, I am slavishly working away.
As for all the Bootis talk... there ain't no sandwich like a pork sandwich.

[Gnaw]

Ganoes and Dr. Vengrief: we can survive my losing my homeworld. Losing ships is a bigger danger imo.

So let's do some thinking once Twelve makes his action.

[Galactic Council]

I see no reason for a freeze. If somebody pops on and it's their turn, do something. No hurry. No fuss or muss.



Morgoth turn 5 reaction move cruiser 105 to 104 is noted.

Yeah I know but I'm trying to figure out what my best move is still. I'm fairly sure I'm going to be doing an Upgrade action but not sure what exactly yet.

Action 4: Upgrade Cruiser blueprint
-Place plasma missles over ion cannon
-Place gluon computers over electron computers

Be a man twelve, stop this pussyfooting around and put your money where your mouth is (also why on earth are you leaving a blank slot on your cruiser?)

RE: Neutron absorber, I don't know about anyone else but I would be shocked if Morgoth got neutron absorber.

Personally I think D'rek having it would be infinitely worse

@Morgoth/CF you guys need to step up and do something about the hippie alliance, they are running away with the game here

I would pass at this point, and do everything else I want to by reaction.

EDIT: or actually since twelve appears to be going for cruisers, maybe build another starbase and interceptor, building a third interceptor on a border somewhere, but that leaves tatts alone to be smashed up by khell, and I'm not sure twelve has the moves to attack

Re:Khell in that corner, my dread probably turns the tide in your favour, but d'rek has free reign on all your systems at the moment, i'd be more worried about that, every ship of hers you kill at this point helps you immensely (or here's an idea, neutron absorbers!)

I'm astonished how you guys have managed to lose both your homeworlds to d'rek! her ships are utter crap!

I'm pussyfooting around because I actually want a chance to beat you/grievance. You have the tech to beat me but not the actions. So I was trying to force your hand so I know what I'm going up against.
