Yeah. NeedING Tapper to finalize a trade unless you want to trade. Interested in trading me 3 trade goods now for 5 later on the round? That would be the same outcome for you as if I traded Tapper. And if you use trade first round you would get it back on my next turn.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Yep.

I'd like the free refresh thank you Nico. Are you planning for me to move out of Abyz first, thoughts to where IH is positioned on the board and in turn order?

If I move he could just jump right into the empty planets.

Or take on your homeworld before your turn.

Morgoth, what are the possibilities of Leadership this turn?


Considering he has already gone this turn, I'd say 0 to none.


So have I. I was willing to give him the benefit of being intelligent enough to know that I was referring to his next action.

Gnaw, any thought to attacking Morgoth's prime system right next to Rex? That is some juicy production with no trooms to defend the planets.

He has admitted that he would attack you if I wasnt such a soft target. You don't owe him anything at this point.

Hah! I’ve stated that I would have taken Mecatol if it was the only option available to me, but I chose another option when I had it. This is not a game with more than one victor, but that doesnt mean I can’t prioritize the options that do not harm my allies, like Gnaw. I’d be surprised if he expected me to deliberately lose in order to keep the alliance going, I certainly do not expect that of him.

At any rate, I see nothing has happened and so I go to bed.

As you shouldn't expect him to sit by and allow you to win. Though knowing Gnaw he won't do it but I had to throw it out there as a Hail Mary anyway.

Oh you know, it's all up in the air, I go where the wind takes me etc etc. Why? Do you have a plan for me?

I keep seeing people use this strange word: plan.

What is this "plan" thing and where does one acquire it?

Also, what is its use?

I would also like to make what will on the surface seem a ridiculous request:

Make me Speaker.

What? Ridiculous! I hear you say in cacophonous predictability. But you're all intelligent people, I'm sure you'll hear me out.

Morgoth appears to be inexorably moving into pole position to take victory next round. One of the best ways to hinder him would be to give him the least amount of choice in strategy picks. Ergo, pick me, his leftiest neighbour, for Speaker, and Morgoth will have the least choice possible.

It would be cool if you two both attacked each other.

Cinematic and such ! Fun stuff that.

Don’t you have some grudge with IH .. I remember something...

Tapper, as long as Twelve needs your assistance, make him move that destroyer.

Cool you are interested then. State you will give me 3 trade goods for 3 VP later in the round and I'll gladly trade under those terms.
