Hey Gnaw - you still have that 0 token PN on you? Any chance we could make some kind of deal wherein I get that?


Blend I'm going to show you an action card. Not sure what you want the zero initiative ability for but one obvious option with the talk I'm hearing out of you is Everra. I do have 4 PDS shots I can get off that can bypass fighters but odds are you can sustain damage and survive them. I want to help convince you to go somewhere else this next round. I think this card when used for your benefit can gain you a VP.




Let me know if this can help convince you to leave me be?

If I wasn't allowed to show an action card privately earlier in the game then you shouldn't be either :headbang:

You weren't trying to show it to Blend, the one player who can actually trade them.

Who say we even have to trade. I can show you the cards I have and say I can play x card for your benefit if you do y.

Well, I could really use the card you showed me for something I would like to do, and I think you could really use the card I showed you for something you may want to do. I think it would make more sense to just trade them as I am currently at my action card cap so can't accept any others. And frankly, though I mostly trust you, I'd rather not put all my eggs in your basket.

I'd be willing to trade the one I showed you for the one you showed me, and continue our alliance for this round. That means that I won't attack any of the systems you control, and you won't PDS fire on my ships if they're not in your systems. I think that's pretty fair, and would benefit us both.

Alright, agenda phase is on. I will be placing all my votes on FOR the Wormhole Initiative. I'd like to know who else is putting their votes there to see if we have enough to ensure we win that.

My preference re: the Economic Initiative agenda is for AGAINST to win, but I don't particularly care either way. I could certainly do more with the FOR than with the AGAINST, but I think that it would still be good if AGAINST won.

Uh, hang on, but this is EXACTLY what I had been trying to do and was told no, and has nothing to do with Blend's ability.

So, once again, :)

So it's clear, Twelve opened a PM that has only myself and D'rek on it, and has only posted the text of the Action card he wants to trade me (and I've done the same back), nothing else. This way D'rek knows that is happening, and because I am the only player who can trade Action Cards, she doesn't have to constantly paste Action Card info to me.

And anyone is allowed to do likewise if they want to show Blend an AC they are offering to trade to him.

Also, every time we have done it, we have announced on thread that we were showing the other an Action card.
