Eh. Like I said before if Morgoth riders were reversed I would have no problem voting with IH.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

If his were reversed, mine would be on FOR and I'd be voting that way. Keeping Morgy from getting one tech is essentially futile at this point.

Gnaw, if you make sure not to give it to twelve i’ll act in a way that will not only prevent twelve from winning, but also make your hold on Mecatol Rex quite a bit more secure.

Gnaw me and Morgoth wiping each others fleets out helps you. If I go first likely we both lose lots of ships. If Morgoth goes first he wins the game.

I dont think taking your homeworld wins me the game, it just forces you to move all fleets in that direction. Besides, I imagine Gnaw wants to take imperial and still be first player.

Your insane production and the fact you are essentially tied for first place does. If you aren't hit hard this round by more than just me I don't see how you don't win. I can only score 1 point this round... maybe. With that ridiculously hard public objective and the fact I have no production to speak of and the fact I'm likely to lose my homeworlds to you if I score 1 point I would be very lucky indeed. You could lose half your fleet and still have enough production to replace them all. If people don't challenge you this round I see you walking away with the win.

1 point behind, technically. And I am no closer to the new objective than you are, or anyone else for that matter. It seems all but impossible to me.

You can still score secret objectives which I cant. To me that evens us up in points and you can battle and afford to take losses. Me if I lose a fight I'm done.

I'm waiting to hear from Tapper. If he is willing to vote against the one objective then I'll vote for his choice of hazard planet else I'm voting for Khells.

Quite so. Leaving your home system so weak when it's within easy reach of my main fleet was an odd choice, but I meant to leave it be anyway in favour of taking Khell's home system instead. Now that he didn't score anything however, and you being one point ahead, the choice seems clear though. At the same time, I am effectively sacrificing my hold of the center in order to attack Jol Naar, so I doubt I'll be quite so, hm, system rich at the end of the round.

Blend, looks like Twelve is voting for either Tapper or me, and Tatts is voting for me. Could I get your votes for Sakulag?

Twelve, vote for me and I won't harass you remember - and I won't deliberately leave an opening for Morgoth to fly through.

Play creuss political secret pn for the executive sanctions agenda



Twelve. You don't want that to pass either. How about you put all your votes on Mehar Xull. That would free Tapper up to vote AGAINST.

I actually do want it to pass kinda, but I really don't want Morgoth to get a free dread more. If Tapper is okay with it then sure I'll vote for your choice if Tapper votes against the executive sanctions law.


Consider morgoth gets a free dread now, but he potentially could have many more such free dreads or worse in the future.

Vote FOR and I'll take an action card off morgoth and tell you what his other cards are.

IH I have had a look at the board and I want to trade with you whilst we can in this agenda phase.

I propose an exchange of ceasefire PN's and my trade agreement for your racial PN.

The ceasefire PN's because my strategy may leave me vulnerable to you. So ceasefire PN would put me at ease to do what needs to be done.

What exactly do you want from my hand of action cards? I have several component action cards that I want to keep, and I want to keep some element of mystery about what I have in my hand, but there are action cards in my hand which I'd hand over for a suitable trade.

Also what guarantees do I have that you will get a refresh?

I'd be happy to exchange ceasefire PN's if you compensate me for the trade good Nico will inevitably steal off me.

If we do it all in one transaction then it will only be 1TG so I can give that to you. Ceasefire PN's are good.

How about you show me 5/11 cards when I use it? Your choice?
