Blend. I severely doubt twelve is gonna give up those two PDS2 he can gain from construction. After all that totally shuts down your movement more than anyone.

Well, Twelve doesn't need to shut down my movement as I have no interest in attacking him. It benefits him to let me do what I want to do with it as it will keep a good chunk of players away from Lodor, which is the door most non-border players need to get to Twelve.

He could PDS Everra twice .. ? You get that right. Basically locks you down.

Protects him from A travel well.

What's your point? He owns Evarra. I have no interest in attacking him, so I don't really care if he can PDS it twice.

And what does "Protects him from A travel well." mean?

Alpha wormholes, I presume.

Twelve can put 2 PDSes there, with enough reach to shoot anything put/build/travelling in Lodor/ through the Alpha wormhole, is I think what Nico means.
Due to that, one might be unkind and say that Blend is relegated to junior partner of Twelve in that part of the galaxy at the least.

Blend as you travel your ships across your systems he could just destroy them at will as travel.

I’m just saying PDS 2 as he builds them and turtles away really harm you.

And everyone going for Rex as he could drop 2 more next too it.

Lots of options.

Twelve and I have been allies from Day 1. I choose to trust that our alliance is and will remain solid. Until he shows me otherwise, I will continue to do so, despite your attempts to persuade me otherwise.

[Nicodimas]

I guess we will know if 12 picks construction how much he values you as an ally.

If it weren't for the hairballs, the Hacan would laugh hysterically at your attempts to sow dissension in the Jol-Nar/Hacan alliance.

Actually, Khell would be an idiot not to take Imperial right now. The whole point of the game is score the most points and the players ahead of him just gift wrapped an easy point to him. I can be convinced to not take it for an action card and 2 trade goods as Nico will steal away one of every transaction I make. I could be convinces to do it for just the trade agreement pn with the promise of not using it for 2 rounds.

Not interested in the PN I already sent you?

I don't have TGs to trade you at the moment, I have all of 1 commodity.

And I can use the secondary to add one of the 2 I want to build anyway. Will look at the goods and get back with you blend.

Well to be honest I can place pds next to lodor and fire on people attacking you too so it's 6 one way half a dozen another.

D'rek told me to wait to pick my card which means there is likely some funny business going to happen. Still need to catch up on the thread so please standby

I am not saying Twelve has plans to betray you, I am just saying that he won't particularly need you or anyone else to put a heavy lock on Lodor. You could see that as him having your back, or as devalueing Lodor as a location for a Space Port, or a bit of both.

Blend that pn has some risk associated with it that I'm not willing to take on at the moment. What else do you have?

Alright, Gnaw and Tattersail. When do you plan to play your strategy cards? Play it on your first turn and I'll give you the refresh for free.

Deal. I cannot trade as we don't border but Tech first for free refresh I agree to.

We have had a mutually beneficial alliance to this point, I wouldn't want to break that over a space dock and PDS that you can likely just get on another round anyway.

Sorry for trying to follow your example and try to get the best deal possible for myself.

How are we playing diplomacy? Card as written or house rule? I'm still foggy on how IH's play of it got resolved.

No need to apologize, but let's be honest here - I've been helping to ensure that you're able to keep Khell in check. That can change real quick via my action cards, and the moment you attack me, you go from being able to trade with everyone to only being able to trade with myself, Nico and Khell.

I think it remains in your interest to work with me to retain your economic dominance over Khell, and I will continue to help you on that front, in exchange for a little help on my part!

Work against me, however, and there WILL be sanctions. I'd much rather not break our alliance, but I'm not going to cripple myself for you.
