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.

That one I don't care either way but I'm very concerned regarding the other agenda. I'm waiting until riders are placed before I discuss. I've learned my lesson from last round.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You have my support.


LOL - well, honestly, given your duplicitous nature so far, I don't really trust you to keep up your end of the deal.

Anyone else?


I quite like that one as well, and was considering to ask Twelve to commit the 5 votes he owes me, to it.

Pay me the 2 TG, I will give you 5 of my votes.
It will give you 2 benefits:
1) Voting for you will prevent me from voting against you
2) I won't call Twelve to vote alongside me, either.

In other deals: I am interested in trading action cards with you, Blend. I have 6 currently, all combat related.
I am looking for something more economic in nature, if you're willing to part with one or more of yours.

Nico leadership was sprung in the first round you can't use it now so you can't spend anything to gain command tokens. Without command tokens you can't do all those other things either. Plus you are doing builds in 2 locations which would require activating 2 systems. Are you just trolling us with that post? Unless you have a component action I think you have to pass.

Plus he only has like 4 votes :D

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.


I don't have many votes - I think I'm at 6 now that I have Lodor? I was planning on plopping them all on one of my planets winning the Cybernetic agenda - given Tapper has expressed his intention to try to get it to drop his way, I think at the moment it would be more beneficial to me to go with Tapper's offer, unfortunately.

With your 5 and my 6, no one except Twelve would be able to outright change the outcome by themselves.

I tentatively agree to this deal - I'm still a couple turns away from actually using Production Biomes, but unless I get some amazing other deal from someone, I'll follow through with this deal in order for you to place your votes for Cybernetic on Thibah.

Most of mine are combat-related as well. The only economic one I have I plan to use this round, and I have one that affects the agenda phase, but the rest are very much combat related too unfortunately.

Yeah, good point.

The only secondary that would be available for you to activate this turn is the Diplomacy secondary, but you started the round at 0/3/0, so don't have any tokens anyway, so you can't actually do anything this turn....

Yeah I'll take Tapper lead on that agenda. Since I have no need of that prerequisite the only motivation I'd have is to prevent someone else from getting it and I'm not sure even that is worry some to me.

I know I'm getting ahead of myself here, but what are the chances I can get you to research Transit Diodes next round?

Coolio. If the math changes (IH has 12) I can add a vote or two more for the same money, although I would like to have more than half of mine available for the second one.

Twelve, just to be sure: I'm NOT calling in your 5 :D
