'm going to definately need a post upkeep map update and knowledge of all the tech before I take my action.

Fuck no.

I just updated it. I'm not going to do fresh boards every other turn.










































Of course I'm going to put a new board up for the new round. Tatts, reach through the screen and slap him.

Then when I take Vega I will offer the diplomatic ambassadors to you then. I don't want to accidentially be a betrayor if you go something sneaky and influence Vega before I settle it.

And I will take no reactions at all. Consider every option for me to react as Confirm Pass

Tapper is at a dinner party. Major possibility his moves will be tomorrow.

[Galactic Council]

Tell him:

Nobody is attacking you. you have 1 money, 4 mats, 4 science, -7 upkeep, +10 money, +6 science and +6 mats. Everyone else has passed.

[Galactic Council]

Oh. Look at twelve and D'rek's storage areas. The space stations. They're a little cartoonish but much easier to see than the stabase images I've currently got.

I turned all interceptors pointing up. Cruisers are pointed down. Should help us keep track of them better.


Thoughts?

Morgoth: I think it's likely he'll do another upgrade.



Khell hasn't passed yet. So is anyone going to do a reaction? Since I built the interceptor, specifically CF and or Tapper.

Summary:

Morgoth may upgrade or pass. That is irrelevant to the rest of the game for this round??

CF and Tapper may or may not wish to react to my build. I can see no reason to delay combat on that. Should they do so, we can add it tomorrow??


Is there any reason why we cannot resolve Khell, Tatts, and IH now?

[twelve]

Worse that can happen is people come back on and say hey I wanted to ...

If that affects combat then you'll just have to redo something. But that isn't terribly likely.

[Khellendros]

This is one of those life-or-death decisions for the Galactic Council. What will he do?!

[Galactic Council]

I see no reason to delay it. Everyone but those 3 can get their upkeep done.

Indeed, you even say at the beginning of your combat post that the ancient fires first...

And that solves the conundrum. The mistake was in the listing of the description. Since both sides roll the same number of dice no re-roll is necessary.
