Morgy, please pick a strategy card and give D'rek a provisional or two before you go adventuring for the evening?

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the nekro can only copy two racial techs?
I think so - though I think they can discard one they previously took for a new one.
Yup!

Are there any support PNs unused out there besides my own?
Nope!
Ya know, if anyone is giving thought to attacking a player and wants to exchange that Support for the Throne card with mine....
Just have D'rek show it to me. Quiet, initially confidential, etc.
Properly done, we won't have to publicize the trade until just the right moment.

The moment a PN or Action card is shown by one player to another player it has to be announced on thread.

We're up to Khell for strategy card selection!

I wasn't thinking so much of doing you a favor, as much as everyone else, but I am happy you're happy.

Wanted to ask before I forgot, does Nico pillage, Blend, Khell, IH and I when we gained those 5 trade goods from the agenda phase?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Don't knock the importance of picking the right card. I've gone back and forth on what I will pick this next round as that will determine what I can and cannot do to accomplish my goals. I think I have it figured out but most likely Khell will pick it even though I'm convinced he will take Construction instead.

This annoys me a bit. It’s fucking strategy phase. How hard is it to leave a provisional with a list of “if available I pick X cards, else...”

Sorry all, was at the cinema. Saw 'A Quiet Place' - twas good, I recommend.
This was actually a tough choice - any other time I would probably have picked Trade so that I would have something to bargain with, but figures this is the one round where everyone's already got a nice chuck of TGs

Who'd you go with? Did you get popcorn? Was it as good as when we go together?

My friend and housemate. No I didn't, as I knew the movie would be super quiet and popcorn crunching would sound super loud. No, of course it wasn't. But I don't think I could have seen it with you - your high-pitched screams would have been too much with this film.

Guys, for this round I heartily recommend that you all pile on to Mecatol Rex in a big, destructive fight.
