Khell - given the above, would the speaker chip and 1 TG be acceptable to you in exchange for your PN?

Wait what was Khells offer for the speaker token?


He is offering me a PN in exchange for the speaker chip and 1-2 TGs. I'm hoping I can talk him down to 1 TG.

Oh I initially thought he was giving up the tg but it was the other way around.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Yes, which is fine, I can afford it. And I'd really like to have the PN that he showed me.

Well, I've just agreed to give over four goods to twelve so two would be nice..., but I'll do it for one and the promise of good trading relations in the future. I know you'll be honourable, Blend.

Twelve - that is a sexy, sexy PN. Would you be willing to just straight up trade that PN for the second one that I previously showed you? If I sell the Speaker chip to Khell, you'd still get second choice of strategy cards next round.


Re: Commodities trading - yes, I will do a 2:2 with you once I can activate the trade secondary.

Just for my own purposes, here are the deals that I have for commodities swapping:

IH - 1:1
ItWasGnaw - 1:1
Tapper - 1:1
Twelve - 2:2


Tatts - you still want a 1:1?



Blend you have yourself a deal.



Perfect!

D'rek - I'd like to trade the second PN that I showed Twelve for the third PN that Twelve showed me (the most recent one he showed me). I believe we can do that during Twelve's turn, right?


Can you PM me the specific names of the PNs?

Since you just had your turn and Nico isn't here yet we'll just make it part of your just-passed turn.

Agreed then. Once I can refresh my commodities and flip them to TGs, I will provide you with a Speaker Chip and 1 TG in exchange for the PN.

He confirmed it in PM. I've edited the game thread post accordingly.

Some questions to which I believe the answer is yes:
Can you activate the secondary of a card after you have passed?
Can everyone who plays 3 command tokens claim the appropriate public objective this turn?
Can you use command tokens you get from leadership on the turn you buy them?

Yes

Yes, there's no limit to how many people can claim a PObj at the same time

You can use them for anything you do in the same turn *after* you play the Leadership strategy. Anything which must be resolved first (resolving the secondary effects of previous strategies, or anything that says "at the start of your turn"), no.

That's good to know, I thought it would go in the same order as gameplay, so like, Tapper would have gotten first jab at that Public Objective. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING!!!!! D:

Technically it does still happen in initiative order (the same order as the action phase), just without limits on how many players can claim each objective. We won't both with enforcing this order throughout the game, except for in the one instance where it does matter - as a tie breaker should multiple players reach 11 VP in the same round (in which case the first player to reach 11 wins).

Nico has been having login problems and we're not sure when exactly they're going to be resolved. For a bit he was able to get on via mobile but not his PC, now it seems like maybe he can't login at all.

He didn't leave a provisional, but after looking over his options I'm somewhat confident on what he would want for his next move anyway, so I'm going to go ahead and do it. When he is able to get back online if he really hates it we'll try and adjust as best as possible, but as long as he can get online before his next turn after this I don't think the order will make much difference anyways.

I accept Twelve's Support for the Throne PN and his two trade goods, and will tohhhhtally, 100% certainly for sure definitely keep my end of the bargain and give him four commodities on my turn, and definitely not just keep everything for nothing.


Ahahahaha, don't look so worried, fishbowlhead, that's what we humans call a joke!! You get it, you get the joke? You'll get your food pellets and undersea castle, don't worry. Jeez, you dorks with your learning, but you never learned how to get a sense of humour eh?

So just to be clear strategies are resolved in the order they are played? So eg on this turn diplomacy has to be resolved before construction?

That's how I understand it.

So currently, Imperial, then Diplomacy, Construction, Trade.

@IH:

You didn't actually use the secondary of Trade to replenish your commodities - but I assume you wanted to do that?
