So i pay 3tg to tapper and take imperial or politics, Nico loots neither of us and takes the other, tatts takes trade and gives Nico and Tapper a free refresh.

Deal?

Deal.


He's going to take imperial. First turn take Rex. Second, play imperial. Giving him 9 or 10 Vp right then depending upon what objective comes up on the draw. You just shot him into a prime condition to win.

Perhaps. I just hope Tatts will open the alpha wormhole on Gwynan.

TATTS PLACE AN ALPHA-WORMHOLE ON GWYNAN.

alpha wormhole on Gwynan.



You may want to ask Morgoth to do that, basically I am going to put the Alpha wormhole on Arinam/Meer or Daemon at present, only so Morgoth uses my racial PN to move it elsewhere. Nico has done me a huge favour by placing a cruiser in the Creuss gate as it prevents Morgoth from moving it there and I am less of a threat to Morgoth's chances to winning anyway. If I place it near his HW, especially whilst the Alastor is in Twelve's, it forces him to move it. If you negoatiate/ask him nicely then I am sure he'll move it to where you want.

Thoughts?

There isn't a fighter there yet, I know you are moving one there though. Even the empty hex or Tura Nora. At a push, Quann. That vicinity anyway, but only so you move it to a better tactical spot, I know you keep saying you have no plans spreading as far as me, but I want to keep you as honest as possible. I have no plans on attacking you either.

Also, sorry for an early action. I didn't really pay attention, and hadn't had enough coffee yet!

I get to wait and see what the result of the strategy phase is and the objective before I pick, that's why I paid!

Gnaw if you are worried about rex could do a deal for my ceasefire PN?

Blend's Turn.

I post my update with all stats available, I hope some of you are not doing it because you cannot/are not able to do so and not to try and get an advantage from the rest of the players.

Do you think we'll see that War Sun in action? Would be a shame to build it and then never use it. But it also can't be against some teeny enemy, got to be a full on slaughter of a big fleet.

It depends on objectives. Right now it offers me no tactical advantage to go toe to toe with someone just to see what happens, it's better as a defensive measure but maybe when another one is built I'd have that advantage? If an objective comes up to spend resources then building a second sun may not be feasible.

Yeah. What he said. It’s back upthread somewhere.

I passed. Morgoth apparently I still have a commodity. Offered to trade for your 1. Or, if I’ve made a mistake, then I’ll give you a trade good for your commodity.



When Gnaw says in that last post that he still has 1 commodity left, that proves that the erroneous < Initiate 2:2 with Tapper and 1:1 with Morgoth > never happened. Therefore Morgoth still has 1 commodity left.

Basically, you guys posted a non-sensical "Initiate" that never actually happened, same as when I was harping on people posting trade "Offers" in their game thread posts but not actually fulfilling them earlier in the game.

Long answer short, you didn't actually post it in a possible fashion in the game thread, so no dice. Just do another trade on your next turn or something.

This is exactly why the Sol imposed 750% trade tariffs on all alien nations, and our economy has never been healthier!

What, you want to take a look at the figures? Sure, of course. While we get those for you, why not spend the wait in this latest magnificent orgy we've just organised on your behalf? Now with extra harnesses!

Btw, The whole blocking movement with fighters thing only works with fighter IIs according to a post on boardgamegeek

Quote

I received an official answer on this.


Rules Question:
Would an advanced fighter in a system on its own block opponents ship movement?

Hey Michael,
Lone advanced fighters can block other players' ship movement.
Let me know if you have further questions,
