Welp, thats my game down the drain.

Everyone! We have to unite against the seemingly inevitable victory of Tapper/Morgoth/Twelve (delete as appropriate)!! It's our only shot!

This coming from the player 2 VP points or more ahead of everyone else.

Tapper, Morgoth.

Let's make our triumvirate a little more 'three' than the current 'two plus one'

Let me give my support for the throne to one of you for the other person's. And I propose that we each exchange Ceasefire as well.

That way each of us has a problem regardless of who we might wish to backstab.

I would have Tapper's SftT and Morgoth's ceasefire.

Tapper would have my ceasefire and Morgoth's SftT.

Morgoth would have my SftT and Tapper's ceasefire.

Or the other way around. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Once a Promissory Note has been put into a player's "play area" (only some PNs do this - Support for the Throne, Promise of Protection, Trade Convoys, Antivirus), it cannot be traded to other players anymore.

Don't and I'll give you the speaker token. Do and it goes to Tapper.

Interesting interesting. But what would you like for the Speaker token?

I know right Khell, he hasn't actually given it to Tatts yet and we are willing to pay for it. I'll even throw in my ceasefire PN for it.

Okay so the speaker token is off the table, but I'll need something of value to turn off my pds. Are you willing to give me anything?

Nothing.

In light of recent news from Lodor we are re-evaluating our plans.

Now I give Khell the opportunity to block that damn wormhole. Choices, choices.

I thought I read somewhere where it said specifically that fighters could not block other ships.

Wow, that's weird. It's not just an errata, it's an outright changed rule from the learn-to-play manual. Huh. Well, I guess now we all know.

The Learn-to-Play manual says (said?):

Quote

A ship cannot pass through a system that contains another
player’s ships, excluding fighters.

But it seems they've changed that rule in version 1.1 of the main rules booklet. Maybe there is a updated Learn-to-Play manual out there with that changed, too, but my PDF still says the old rule.

Quick question regarding my bombardment in my turn, the war sun hits on a 3, and all 3 rolls are 3 or more, so is that 3 hits not 2 or does it hit above a 3?
