Khell. Suddenly the silence of space is ripped asunder by the sound of your ship's cloaking devices failing.

Next time don't use the low bidder.


Wow, you were loaded with those assholes eh?

Am OMW home so will post my action when I get there.

You're no fun, Gnaw. It would have been glorious. Now I'll just have to go back to Plan A.

Unless there's some way I can tempt you not to use Sabotage? I can promise NOT to fulfil a second public objective or a secret objective this round. At the agenda phase I will vote the way you want, and I have PNs I can give too.


Edit: Basically I'm doing this primarily as revenge on Morgoth, not for the VPs. And it might even fail (his destroyer has anti-fighter barrage remember)!

Yeah. And it might work. And somehow I don't trust you to not score VPs.

I hate using it more than you hate having me use it. I know how precious those things are.

Edit: now I regret saving IH. *shrug* Call my use of it here as taking one for the team.

I swear I won't. I also won't use the Imperial card until my very last action, giving people ample chance to take planets back off me. How about that?


Edit: And my last action isn't planned to be for a while either, btw!


Edit 2: I just really want to see/imagine Morghy's face if this works! Don't we all want that?!

Uh. Blend. How are you activating Thibah?

You’re out of tactical CTs.

I purchased 2 CTs with the Leadership secondary, put 1 in tactical, 1 in strategy.

Tapper now you've researched gravity drive I'll have to rethink what I can do this round. Expanding outwards and building was going to be my intention with a surprise for someone but that'd leave me exposed to you coming in once I've left the house. What assurances can you give me?

What assurances can you give? You already asked if I would miss Mallice, after all.

Anyway, the guarantee is in your flagship, which contains a Delta wormhole. No matter how fast/slow I move, you are likely to have a fleet in the Creuss gate and in Creuss itself a turn after I would. If I am going to attack a remote corner of the universe and risk a big battle, I don't go looking for one against an opponent who can

A. Cross half the board in the blink of an eye
B. Go on a terror campaign in my slice of the board.

You can do both (although likely not at the same time.

That really depends on the PN. I am not fond of handing mine out like candy as they will hurt when cashed in.

If you want a pact, that's cool, I am open to it.

A. You don't enter the Mallice hex (you don't need it anyway as Alpha's are connected to Betas for you) and you don't use the alpha-wormhole next to Mehar Xull.
B. I will not enter a delta wormhole, Creuss or the Creuss-gate.

That's fine by me. I can give you a back door into someone's territory next round, so how about this as an added bonus.

You can choose where I put the Creuss Wormhole in the next status phase, (as long as it is non threatening to my planets), if you don't attack me this round.
