Although I guess it's only Nico who hasn't posted a proper status in a while.

I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Can't believe you people just left the Imperial strategy there for Khell.
I asked last round already for an offer to take it. No responses at all.
Someone as fond of deals as you are shouldn't expect us (well, speaking for myself here) to take a burden for nought.
I mean, he's in the lead right now, why should it fall on someone in second to last place to stop him from winning? I figured you'd want to stop him from getting more points, but to each their own I guess.
Funny you should say that to me, because guess who you share that second to last spot with?
I would have been perfectly fine with taking Imperial if the whole board had thrown together an offer of, say, a combined 3 TG + a one-use PN + no piracy + no card steal.
Multiple turns in a row, I would get fed up with it, but for a turn, two tops? Acceptable.
It doesn't break the bank for anyone, most abilities wouldn't target me anyway and it would create a precedence that would also see me chip in if the shoe is on the other foot.
Ditto.

Regardless, I can tell you that if I had the chance to choose before Khell, I'd certainly have ensured he didn't get his hands on the Imperial strategy.

Really?
It’s strategy cards. How hard is it to put in provisionals for that???

Yeah, but you notice how during the status phase everyone else actually posted their current status?
I should be able to go into the strategy phase knowing exactly how much CTs, TGs, PNs, etc. that you have rather than going in blind.

I mean, she has been a champ and helping out, but I'm certain she'd be pretty thankful if we didn't all depend on her to keep track of our crap for us.

Not gonna lie, kind of excited/worried about what Nico might do with the Warfare strategy!

Blend, are you using my PN? Need to know...
Edit: I’m going to give him a little while to respond to this then just assume he’s not.

Well, we should maybe wait for Nico given he might have some kind of action card that could change whatever strategy card he gets, no?

Well, it will be one of your turns next, but before that Nico needs to post his Strategy Phase post and then I need to post the custodian post starting the action phase. (And it wouldn't hurt to wait until Twelve can fix his post, too)
