Actually I think okay. I just can't get my cruiser upgrade and have to research light/wave deflectors instead. Definitely not what I wanted to do but will take it.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I'm showing you an action card you may find interesting. Let me know if you're interested, and if you are, what you'd like to give me for it.

I think I know which one and if it is what you showed me last round I'd give you my trade pn for it.

Agreed, you can go ahead and post the trade on your turn.

I need to wait to make the trade until after I spent my trade goods though which means after Morgoth executes tech.

Out of one session and into another. I’ll make a move in 2 hours.

In the meantime I’ve got a suggestion. Let’s eliminate Nico. Twelve takes his home world, IH the other one, and I’ll do Lor.
We worry about the cruiser afterwards.

Need Mod ruling on if we can even do the timing of this to even be useful for me.

Morgoth are you using Technology as your next action?

The trade must happen AFTER you have activated secondaries, but can be BEFORE you perform any of your actions.

I am not the mod, obviously, but D'rek corrected a game post of mine a while back where she explained this.

I think you are right. It's trades with commodities that get sticky as one person trades before the other has opportunity to even refresh that I might be thinking about. I just need to do the secondary first so Nico can't pillage me.

I'm fairly confident what I'm offering will have no effect on you whatsoever.

Strategic Secondaries have to be the first thing in your turn (since they're resolving ASAP after the primary was played), but after those you can do transactions at any point during your turn, even in-between the steps of a tactical action (but not in the middle of one step, nor partway through resolving an action card).

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

So sounds like I execute tech secondary, spend my resources, execute trade with Blend and since I have no trade goods not get pillaged. Then I can use the action card I traded for that same turn....? I don't have to wait until his next turn to complete the trade...?

That sounds reasonable.

(Blend still has enough TGs to get pillaged from it though.)

Well he's getting 4 from me on my next trade refresh so he is more than compensated for that.
