I mean, if I don't pay that cost and I'm going to be hit by your pds anyway...

And that is why I built the pds in the first place. And if you are threatening me I am more than happy to make the pds fire hit your ships past your fighters if you want. And the onl.... oh. Yeah no! Just realised where you are talking about going. That brings you way to close to my backyard for my comfort. Defiantly going to cost something to go there.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

In the states, sorry for the delay.

Impressive how Khell is taking on both Morgoth and Tatts and is still apparently none the worse off.

Thanks for the TG blend. Impressive how you've got to 9 TG while having all your commodities taken!

Nico, did you miss your free trade refresh? I have commodities to trade if your interested? a 3 for 3 would be really good.

Yeah. You missed it. Don't really like you going back and editing it in.

Can Khell's troops be defeated?


Khell has strong troops, so you can either try bringing superior numbers, or bringing even better troops. So far, the popular strategy seems to be neither of those things...


To be fair, two out of three of my attacks on Khell should have ended in my favour. Too bad our drones are riddled with bugs from our short and poorly planned java-phase.

So Gnaw, you up for that 1:1 trade?

Also, if there's anyone else interested, I have another commodity to trade.

Tatts, I am not too pleased that you destroyed my cruiser before I got to fire. One thing would have been if it missed, my incompetent drones would have been to blame for that, but in this instance the whole combat discussion was pointless.

You said you'd leave a cruiser in there and allow me to destroy it and if it produces a hit I'd assign it to a fighter. I agreed to that. It didn't produce a hit. I assumed you'd gain a tech for being in a battle with me, I honestly didn't realise you had to destroy a ship first.

My last commodity went to Gnaw Morgoth but I'd swap with you. How many commodities do you have?

I'll swap TG's for you commodities, so you can edit that into your post as I have them now.

I'll do 2 TG's for 2 of your commodities. Or 1 if you cannot afford that.

Yeah, that's perfectly acceptable to me 2 commodities for 2 trade goods.

Also, it's perfectly fine with Khell's fighters. It just came as a bit of shock seeing them yesterday, but that's my fault for not paying attention to the thread.

oh, already there's drama!

Twelve, we managed to work out a deal for trade last round. What do you think of working out something new for this one?



Can you move those ships turn one out of Quann?

If I place 1 ship in a system, can that player who has ships in that system move those ships out?


Not without firing, no. I could announce retreat in the first round but i'd lose ships either way. Hm, moving in the first round is not ideal for me by any means. I can move everything but one cruiser this round, and allow you to destroy the last one, on the condition that if it produces a hit you sacrifice a fighter or something. I make a sub optimal move, lose a cruiser but gain a technology, and you get to take the system.



Tatts, are you seriously going to consider Morgoth taking a tech from you like Wormhole Generator or Dimensional Splicer or anything he wants just from destroying one of your fighters? I mean, are you fucking serious that you want Quann so badly (which you won't even take, trust me on that), that you will make Morgoth even stronger? He frames it like he's doing you a favour, but he really isn't.


I didn't plan on giving Morgoth a tech to be honest, but with one ship how likely is that?


What? You don't get a choice! He destroys at least one ship in combat (and he will destroy one of your fighters) and he gets to take a tech of his choice.

Then you come here, having made Morgoth much stronger, and try to take Quann, for which no action card will help you, if that's what you're thinking.

You made quite sure of that :D. Ruthless application of the letter of the agreement over the spirit of the agreement, Tatts. Ruthless.

Well played.
