Khell - I am having D'rek show you a couple of Action Cards I'd be willing to trade for you to leave Construction there.
Twelve - I am having D'rek show you a PN that I'd be willing to trade you to leave Construction for me.

Khell - would you take something other than Construction in exchange for an action card? I have one or two that you may be interested in.
Twelve - if Khell agrees to the above, would you let the Construction strategy pass to me?

Well, it was one of the ones I was considering...but sure, I will pass on it. Are you offering PNs, actions cards, or both?
Edit: Sorry, just realised you sent them for me to peruse!

Blend. I severely doubt twelve is gonna give up those two PDS2 he can gain from construction. After all that totally shuts down your movement more than anyone.

Does this mean that the player whose infantry gets put onto the planet basically invades the planet for free?
So we could vote for one of the players with lots of infantry on a planet to have to destroy them all, then put someone with low VPs' infantry on there to invade the planet, essentially taking a planet away from one player and giving it to another?

Well, Twelve doesn't need to shut down my movement as I have no interest in attacking him. It benefits him to let me do what I want to do with it as it will keep a good chunk of players away from Lodor, which is the door most non-border players need to get to Twelve.

He could PDS Everra twice .. ? You get that right. Basically locks you down.

What's your point? He owns Evarra. I have no interest in attacking him, so I don't really care if he can PDS it twice.
And what does "Protects him from A travel well." mean?

Okay, but if you look at the original offer:
It says trade for AN Action Card.

Haha, well, tell you what. As you still haven't got the commodities off me, I won't push it, and will do it for the first action card you showed me. Just next time be more careful with your wording

Blend as you travel your ships across your systems he could just destroy them at will as travel.
I’m just saying PDS 2 as he builds them and turtles away really harm you.
And everyone going for Rex as he could drop 2 more next too it.
Lots of options.
