True. But even more, I would love Exotrireme-ing two of those, and watch their owner cry.

Gnaw - you around? I'd appreciate if you could answer my question - will you be refraining from using my Trade Agreement before you give it back to me if I trade you this round in exchange for use of Warfare? I ask because I need to refresh my commodities before I can trade with you, and, frankly, if you are planning to use my Trade Agreement so that I don't get to keep those commodities, then we don't have a deal.

I'd like to know before I post my action as what I do will be very different based on what you do.

Well if I'm trapped by Gnaw I will be getting my own war suns next round and Tatts can have his fight with much lower odds of winning.

Speaking of Gnaw, are you going to trap my troops? If so can you be convinced not to?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

My offer of holding warfare has now been retracted as I was out bid and now don't see the benefit of you holding it.

Hmmm, you know, it occurs to me that if IH plays Trade this round, it won't really matter that Gnaw's giving me back my Trade Agreement as I'll have to do the Trade Secondary before I do the trade with Gnaw.... Hrmmm...



I just won’t use it.


Edit: submitted a PM to d’rek saying that.

Yeah. There's apparently an answer from the designers on it, per Boardgamegeek.

In addition, the wording on the tech is such that opponent choosing would make it backfire spectacularly.
First, it doesn't specify opposing ships, so opponent could otherwise nominate 2 Sardakk ships.
Secondly, it says "up to 2 ships", so the opponent would always just destroy 1 :lol:

Yup, exotrireme is self-destructor's choice. Similar-ish to Tatts' Wormhole Splicer and other abilities/effects that specify the player using the effect gets to assign the hits.

What!? I thought that was a separate trade that wasn't agreed upon by blend yet? I was willing to pay Blend not to broker that trade.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You just posted your action post and you hadn't posted in this thread you agreed to broker that deal. I say it's not.

Well, if D'rek agrees that I can retract that trade, then I agree to your deal.
