Nico/D'rek would you like to discuss my removal from Abyz/Fria early next turn? I'm not sure how it'd work but I was thinking maybe you pay me TG's to leave and you move in. I'd take everything with me.


Why would you want to give away a perfectly nice system like that?


He has my support PN and I have his. This game is over in less than 3 rounds.

WCS, Khell gets 2VP this round and 2VP next round. BCS he gets 1 and 1 but by the 3rd round its impossible to believe he cannot get 2VP with what's available. So that's what we have to work with, my ships must stay mobile otherwise its game over. I'm not going to pour everything into defense when its more fun to see what can happen. I'd prefer to remain peaceful with Nico.

If you don't move it, it stays where it is. So what's it worth?

Although it depends if Blend still wants it because I think we agreed a deal.

Who's turn is it? Tappers or Khells?

Blend will you use warfare next turn?

I accept your Trade PN for wormhole placement.

Thank you for offering that action card.


He may not want to give me his Trade PN as he is not in the best position to go mobile, so he may want to keep his Trade PN for negotiations next round.

Huh I thought Nico taking that planet from you would result in the loss of support for the throne, but actually it's units not planets so you can do that.

Yeah, it'll be really interesting to see what'll come up. I think you've managed to claw your way into a much stronger position than what I thought was possible, IH. Chaos is indeed a ladder!


Yeah I've somehow managed to claw back a respectable position. Still think I'm a way off from the win as my success/ survival has been due to those of you with decent fleets ignoring me. The collapse of my neighbours has certainly helped though!

Well I'm asking you, what do you want for it? I'll tell you what, if we strike a deal I'll let you decide on the placement, so long as it's someplace we can mutually agree on (i.e. not affecting me or you negatively).

Mostly what I can offer is votes for an agenda. Or perhaps you'd like Mecatol? If you invade, I can put in the order for my troops not to fire at yours and you can just take free shots. Mmmm tasty :p That's quite valuable though, so I might want a little bit more in return.

In fact, that Mecatol offer is open to all comers.

I'm pretty sure I've read about people making deals like that on the board game forums (like, give me that PN and you can enter my space and we won't initiate space combat, etc).

I guess it's more a house rules sort of thing if it's accepted, but this game has a lot of wacky deal-making wiggle room baked into it.

Or as in our games, we can choose whether to fire or not fire PDS.

I no longer have my Trade Agreement, I gave it to Twelve for that Action Card in hopes that I'd be able to remove Tapper from the Lodor system, so I've got nothing to negotiate with, unless you'd accept me naming you the second recipient of my Production Biomes.

Hmm, I think I'll have to retract that particular Mecatol offer, as it probably goes too much against the actual rules of the game and I don't think it would be accepted.

Still, if there was some way to negotiate an easy(ier) transition of Mecatol ownership, I'm down for striking a bargain.

Okay so wormhole placement is up for grabs.

Twelve, IH, Morgoth, Tapper, Gnaw what have you got to offer?

Nico already has one, and Blend doesn't need it.

Khell's offering a promise :p

Why would you want to vacate? Owning it has landed you in first place.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I'm asking you what you want for it, so think of something :p And I'm letting you choose placement, with the obvious caveats.

Just the value of the planets, 5.

Edit. Or if possible during the agenda phase, any component action card plus 2 TG's?
