Does Morgoth have any systems with unactivated ships other than 1 system with a destroyer?

I have my lunch break in an hour and since I biked to work this morning I'm not going anywhere so will post my action then when I figure out which ships are where.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I forgot you could fire your PDS' as well.

All three come home to Jord, I couldn't have asked for more. Well fought!


Glad I didn’t waste morale boost.

D’rek, what about my resynthesize rolls? Infantry II.

You can do that at the start of your next turn (it doesn't respawn until then)

I've definitely made a lot of mistakes I can learn from (and make brand new ones next game). It will be very interesting starting out with a new race and figuring out the strategy for them. As someone who has taken very little advantage of PDS, it'd be interesting to play as the Xxcha and have their mobile PDSII of a flagship!


I've been regretting not taking the muatt ever since round 2.


Yeah, Muatt look super interesting to play! Of the races not currently in this game, Muatt and Lizix are the ones I really wanna try. Of those in this game, Nekro seems like lots of fun!

I was happy with three kills for three kills in a seven on three situation. The troops did me proud - shore leave in Jord's Red Light City for them all!

The Nekro are a lot of fun! They’re flexible and opportunistic, but very dependent on getting into a position where you can grasp the chances that present themselves. Not good at long term plans though.

Wonder if Morgoth left a provisional with D'rek. I probably only have 1 more action left in me this round and I will pass as well.
