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.)


I am aware, and okay with it. Trade to Twelve agreed to if I'm not around.

Anyone want a trade on my 1 commodity?

I would, but I'd like to not lose a TG, making Nico richer, to give you a TG.

How did you move those ships Gnaw? I get that you used logistics, but don't normal ship movement abilities still apply?

That isn’t what the card says.

I think I asked about this early in the game and that's the response I remember being given. It's possible I dreamed the whole thing so get a second opinion.

Anytime a ship "moves" or is "moved", it is limited by its move rate.

If you want to see an example of when units can teleport around without the move rate limitations, take a look at the Transit Diodes tech:

"You may exhaust this card at the start of your turn during the Action Phase: remove up to 4 of your ground forces from the game board and place them on one or more planets you control."

^^no usage of the word "move" in there.

Pretty fucking worthless secondary you made there.
I’ll do something else in a bit.

You guys just can't seem to figure out the timing of it. Logistics and Warfare secondaries let you build a small fleet or in your home system, move it to another hex, and then move it again in a tactical action all in one round, every round. Or optimize your fighters and ground forces without having to activate systems. Great if your best or only space dock is your home system.

For instance, when I used Warfare to smash up Morgoth's fleet in the adjacent system. Good times.

So can the ships moving using logistics take troops/fighters with them?
