Twelve - I am told you did not use my Trade Agreement PN?

I did use it. It was in my first post but somehow removed during its many editings. I didn't give myself the trade goods on my turn because you hadn't refreshed your commodities yet.


You may want to confirm that with D'rek, then.

Nico - I am told by D'rek that you pillaged me (i.e. your provisionals were set to pillage me) when I took Twelve's commodities via his Trade Agreement PN, so you have 1 of my TGs that you had agreed not to take. This breaks our agreement, so either you return that TG to me, or I will choose someone else to receive the 2 TGs from my Production Biomes activation.

If Blend hasn't refreshed his commodities then you can't use the PN. As the card itself says: " Play when the Hacan player replenishes commodities "

You're better off sending me a provisional to use it automatically when Blend refreshes his commodities then trying to non-sensically time-dilationy add it to your post.

D'rek I used Blends trade agreement pn. I will add 5 trade goods on my next turn as I assume Nico is stealing one. You are always stating we can't take what isn't there yet and I refreshed my goods before Blend so therefore couldn't execute the pn. That is what I should have done right?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Simple solution - Twelve, when it comes back round to you, just trade me my Trade Agreement PN for my 6 commodities - then it'll be just like you used it. Deal?

Well I am waiting to give myself the goods until he refreshed and it was my turn again but will make sure to let you know that I will be using such actions in the future.

Going by his provisional orders, nope, he isn't.

Since Trade Agreement is a one-way steal it doesn't matter if you have commodities or not yet, but you play it on the other player's turn. It's weird in this forum format. Anyways, both posts are good now.

Very well, I agree to this deal as I was very much expecting you to take them this round anyway! :D

Khell - how did your strategic command tokens go from 4S to 5S since your last turn? Did I miss something?


Agreed, it should be 1/2/4


I started 5the round with 1/2/4. I gained three command tokens with leadership secondary - 2/2/6. Blend took one by using the PN I gave him - 2/2/5. I took a tactical action - 1/2/5


You forgot using TECHNOLOGY secondary, which brings it down to 1/2/4.


No, YOU forgot...oh no, wait, it was me, my bad. In my head, Tech was just pay 4 resources. Well, I'll take being 50% correct :D

Place a tactical token in Silvano, move a carrier to silvano. Build 3 fighters and 1 infantry on silvano. exhaust torkan.


Assuming torkan here should be Tequ'ran.

Unfortunately, the rules don't let you split resources between infantry and fighters, so you'd have to either do 4 fighters or 2 fighters and 2 infantry. (I know, it's lame, but them's the rules.)

@Morgoth: I've got you at 1c/0tg, rather than 0c/1tg. You traded 1 commodity to Tapper and 1 to ItGnaw ?

Nico - given your most recent action does not mention giving me back the TG you stole from me, I can only assume that our deal re: pillaging and Production Biomes is off. I will not be providing you with the 2TGs from that action.


Everyone else - I will have to give someone 2 TGs when I activate Production Biomes. Who wants them, and what are you willing to give me for them?

I should note that I would be interested in having one of my planets become the elected planet for the Cybernetic agenda. I'll give you the 2 TGs in exchange for your support on that agenda.

I'll give you my votes in exchange for your votes helping me bring about a favourable vote on the other agenda, and the 2TGs I guess, which I'm happy to just give back to you.
