I know. Keeping IH afloat is worth the risk. And before you get your knickers too knotted up, you might want to look at the star charts again. You need me for awhile to maybe help slow the Khellinator down.

Well you know it sucks that it happened, but that’s one less sabotage out of the deck!

@ Drek are we going to run out of action cards ?

Twelve, any idea of whom might be able to expect a free refresh?


I'm thinking everyone but Morgoth and Nico at the moment. On the fence about Tapper.

Can you for once just finally say WHY I always pop up on your shortlist of Big Bad Threats instead of just putting me there?

I have a fear of bugs. Trying to not let it cloud my judgement.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

oh, already there's drama!

Twelve, we managed to work out a deal for trade last round. What do you think of working out something new for this one?

Can you move those ships turn one out of Quann?

If I place 1 ship in a system, can that player who has ships in that system move those ships out?

Not without firing, no. I could announce retreat in the first round but i'd lose ships either way. Hm, moving in the first round is not ideal for me by any means. I can move everything but one cruiser this round, and allow you to destroy the last one, on the condition that if it produces a hit you sacrifice a fighter or something. I make a sub optimal move, lose a cruiser but gain a technology, and you get to take the system.

Tatts, are you seriously going to consider Morgoth taking a tech from you like Wormhole Generator or Dimensional Splicer or anything he wants just from destroying one of your fighters? I mean, are you fucking serious that you want Quann so badly (which you won't even take, trust me on that), that you will make Morgoth even stronger? He frames it like he's doing you a favour, but he really isn't.

That's fine by me, I'll sort my actions out accordingly.

I didn't plan on giving Morgoth a tech to be honest, but with one ship how likely is that?

What? You don't get a choice! He destroys at least one ship in combat (and he will destroy one of your fighters) and he gets to take a tech of his choice.

Then you come here, having made Morgoth much stronger, and try to take Quann, for which no action card will help you, if that's what you're thinking.

Yes, but I can promise not to do so. As you've seen so far I have been diligent about keeping my word, and have no intentions of changing that.

Oh, by the by, another sabotage and a flank speed (!!) is out of the game. That is definitely a cause for celebration.

The mighty Hacan fleets prepared for war.

The Yssasiril watched.

The Hacan merchants offered trade for political aid.

The Yssasiril agreed, for what is a man without honour?

The Hacan fleets launched upon there drive for conquest against the innocent, but alas a Naalu friend had kindly diverted the necessary fuel.

The Hacan fleets sat becalmed in the docks.

Chamberlain blend awoke in his chambers. A shadowy figure watchers.

The Yssasiril have many friends. Will the Hacan honour there word? Or shall the tribes mobilise for war?
