Twelve, there's a problem with your turn. You place a CT in the Zohbat-Mellon system for the CONSTRUCTION secondary. Then you activate the same system for a Tactical Action. But you cannot activate a system which already has a CT in it.

What are you talking about? The spent stratigic token goes on where the pds is located? I thought stratigic tokens went back to your reinforcement stack.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Just reread the construction secondary action. Yeah it says to place the strategic token on a system you want to build the PDS or Space Dock. Well then my amended action is to not use the construction secondary. I will gain back one strategic action and have one less pds.

Tapper, D'rek showed me that PN. That would definitely be nice to have in my back pocket and when Nico uses it I will definitely consider a trade.

Yeah, that. The idea, thematically and mechanically, is that it is difficult to build a Space Dock and use it all in one round. Since 1 round is all sort of a compressed instance of time, that would be like building ships at a dock while the dock itself is being built. Should only be possible with a special dedicated focus, like the Construction or Logistics primaries.

Some Strategy secondaries require paying a CT. Some require placing one in the map. Some don't require a CT at all. Gotta read them thoroughly, folks!

@Nico what's the justification for this?

Gain 2 TGs from blend


Looks to me like Twelve declined any such deal:

I think my ceasefire pn would be all I would part with for a single trade good. And that's questionable. Also our trade agreement pn swap, how does that work? When we refresh you take all 4 of my commodities gaining 4 trade goods and I do the same gaining 6? Or do I just get 2 and you don't get anything?


Ok it’s a take it or leave it type of situation. As I explained

My 2: for ya 1 ceasefire + 2 TGs
I’ll turn off pillage, you turn off PDS 2.

Be back later.

Nico I've declined your deal. I accept you will steal from me. We aren't best buds but I'll deal. This post was directed towards Blend and his unused commodity from last round. From you, however, I would like to know if upgraded space port is something you would use my pn on? Your answer will change my tech choice this round.

D’rek that was with blend, still waiting to see if they withhold their part of the deal for sure. Not Twelve, clearly twelves not willing to discuss a peaceful state and keeps blowing up my ships.

I'll trade 1:1 whenever the slimy, no good, misbegotten scumbag with the trade card gets off their fat ass and plays it. Uh, hold on a sec..

hello. You don't say? You sure about that? Damnit get me that info sooner you spineless idiot.

Anyway, as I was saying, I'll trade you 1:1 following the refresh of commodities that will occur at the opportune timing as determined by the magnificent creature wise enough to choose the trade card.

Sounds good. I'll do my best to be expedient, depending on what happens before it comes back to me.

I know right. I do remember Tatts saying it's a bank holiday in the UK. Must be why he's taking so long.

If Khell is present on the board, he’s at work. If he’s not, he’s on holiday.
Are we sure he’s not really an American?
