Just so everyone knows, now that Gnaw has fucked over my entire round of planning, I am now UPDATING all my provisionals to take into account that motherfucking asshole move.

I think you've just scrawled 'DESTROY GNAW' in large crayon letters over your previous provisionals.

LoL, unfortunately that's going to have to wait until next round at the very least!

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

Probably next round, yes.

What happens then? We just don't get action cards anymore?

I'll shuffle the discard pile and/or add additional cards.

I'm thinking of not putting any played/discarded Riders back in, though. You guys don't seem to like them.

So does that entire round of provisionals still include attacking me?

Sorry for the delay been a busy day at work, looking at the map now

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

You agree not to attack me this whole action phase no matter how tempting I may leave myself open for it? I'd also ask for a trade good but by the time you have one to give nico would steal it.

That seems a little excessive for saving me one strategic token. Instead I'd offer to trade you a commodity for a commodity, rather than straight up giving you a trade good. The galaxy is my oyster as it stands, so I am happy to offer you a cease fire for the round.

Honestly, it's going to really depend on what YOU do.

You're really my most viable option for invasions at the moment. Make yourself less so and I'll be forced to look elsewhere.

Hey Twelve - you willing to talk about what you're going to research this round? I'm trying to decide whether I'm going to copy whatever you research, and how that might affect what I can do going forward.

I wasn't asking for a commodity nor a trade good as it would just get stolen but a 1 round cease fire is acceptable.Not sure if I was included in your plans or not but having a little more peace of mind weather real or imaginary would be nice.

Thinking cruiser and dread upgrades but may do something like 1 ship and 1 racial or military tech. Still cant decide.

[Imperial Historian]

Fair enough, I'm going to steal one of your action cards to give you an idea of quite how annoying a war with me is going to be. I almost certainly can't beat anyone on the board in a prolonged fight, but I can probably cripple anyone and make it very difficult for them to come back from.

Pay me the tg I'm owed and we can go back to being friendly neighbours, all is forgiven (I have no real motivation to attack you, it just costs me VP).

Well, I think he made his feelings known in the Yssaril-iest way possible.

I mean, I don't need my action cards to hurt you.

For the record, I do still plan to give you the TGs I owe you for your support in that last vote - but likely going to be using my Production Biomes later in the round.

I would definitely copy the dread upgrade if you go that way, probably not any of the others unless you go with Transit Diodes.

Sigh...

I'm starting to think we're all going to have to make a concerted effort of driving Morgoth into the ground. He's getting quite out of hand.

Speaking of deals. If I offer you a free refresh can I get a slight reprieve from pillage?

Don't fucking trust him - he offered no pillaging in exchange for my production biomes last turn and went back on that deal. He's nothing but a crook.

Well you never game me the biomes right ?

I hadn't fucking played it yet - it was going to be yours until you decided to pillage me instead. I said WHILE we were making the deal that I planned to use it late in the round, and you said that we had a deal, then pillaged me. So fuck you. It's your fault.

[Nicodimas]

How about this blend I’ll stop pillaging you if you trade with me some needed action cards? Will that work for you ?

[Khellendros]

2 v 2, right? Is this battle basically down to RNGeesus?

It's super easy to tell when Morgoth is planning something against you, because he stops interacting with you on thread
