Given Khell didn't refresh his TGs, I can't afford to pay Tatts the commodities I promised him, so I've got 2 commodities that I need to swap if anyone's got any extras lying around?

Khell - you're a dick for not refreshing your commodities. Waste of a free refresh as far as I'm concerned. I'll just steal them later now.

He got a free refresh. Isn't that automatic then? He probably forgot to just add it to his post.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

He still has to accept it.

@ItGnaw - two turns ago when you used LOGISTICS you didn't increase your strategy pool count from 2S to 3S (because you put the CT taken off the board via LOGISTICS there), so you should actually be at 2/3/1 right now, not 2/3/0.

Activate Trade secondary.
Trade 2 commodities to Twelve for 2 of his commodities
Trade 1 commodity with ItWasGnaw for 1 of their commodities
Trade 1 commodity with Tatts for 1 of his commodities



Twelve doesn't have any commodities.

The other 2 deals are good.

Sorry, Twelve will have 2 on his turn, and has already posted that he'll trade... *shrugs* I'll remove it from mine, but it'll be on his.

I do believe my post should be good now.

And I *AM* using the Jol-Nar PN to copy Hyper Metabolism.

Review top 2 agenda cards.


So now that the Agenda Phase is unlocked and with our houserule that agendas are revealed ahead of time, I'm going to give you a choice (and same will apply to future uses of POLITICS). You can:

{a} Look at the top 2 cards of the Agenda Deck (i.e. the agendas that would be played next round) and put them back on the top or bottom of the deck. Doesn't affect the two current agendas that will be voted upon this round.

{b} You can discard the two currently active Agendas, and they'll be replaced with new Agendas from the top of the deck.

{c} Discard one currently active Agenda; look at the top card of the Agenda Deck and place it on the top or bottom.

I've pointed this out to a few of you in PMs, but just to reiterate for everyone:

It is 100% meaningless to say that you "offer" some trade during your turn. If that player later agrees to it we will *not* retcon the trade to having occurred back when you "offered" it. Once two players agree to a deal in this thread they can post it happening in their next turn and it will happen immediately at the time of their posting *that*, and it makes zero difference whether they had previously posted an "offer" or not in their earlier game thread posts.

So anyone else have thoughts on whether I should get rid of one of the current agendas? I was thinking of eliminating the Compensated Disarmament Agenda.

Well as it was returned to me and I immediately offered it in trade to Nico for holding off on using it this round I figure I won't be hanging on to it for very long.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I'm okay with the current agendas as long as people aren't looking to disband my troops in Zohbat. Everra or Qucen'n I'd be okay with but Zohbat would be a big negative. But as there has been almost no chatter amount the members of the other races I'm afraid that is exactly what is going to happen. Blend if you don't replace that agenda which planet are you going to vote for?

I mean, whatever planet you want me to vote for, basically. I don't particularly want either of the current agendas...
