Tile 1: The Lodor system! (3/1 and an alpha wormhole).

Bliss, I have no placements near you, but I hope that we can be friendly in the game. We're both warlike races and we're right next to each other. I think we would both benefit from trying to find ways to cooperate rather than going to war. This is a game about points after all, and the less we need to spend on ship building, the more we can spend on objectives.

Do we have to do it like this, that's take forever. I think Blend just gave us the numbers to assign our hexes to asap and order in which to do it in. Can you not just do what Gnaw and Twelve did and assign all hexes to all numbers at the same time.

[Tapper]

My considerations:


For D'rek:
#9: 46 (empty hex)
#10: Arnor-Lor (3/3 spread over 2 planets)

For Twelve/Gnaw
#27: Nevant (1/2 red tech)
#28: Everra (3/1 nebula)

For Bliss:
#45: Silvano (2/2 with green tech, which gives Bliss Cruiser II on her first research opportunity --> I think that's just as good or better for you as Arnor-Lor would be).

I hope Bliss and D'rek repay me in kind.

My placement depends on what IH has to say.

IH I have 2 wormhole hexes. Not sure what you have to give me for one next to your homeworld/creuss gate.

Are they just empty wormhole hexes?

What are you offering an empty wormhole hex? If tatts is placing a wormhole near me not sure I need both.

[Tattersail_]

Mine are both empty yes, so Morgoth probably has Quann.

And I would appreciate if they get back to me about that

No, it's Quann. Consider that we'll be neighbours I figured it would be advantageous to have a friendly start, and for you to get options for expansion that does not include myself.

[Imperial Historian]

I have sakulag Lazar (yellow tech 1/0, 2/1) and quecenn rarron (1/2, 0/3) both two planet decent systems I can place. I'd rather not have two wormholes next to me but perhaps we can work something out with a wormhole with planets next to me and another system with planets (or at least not a hazard)

It wouldn't take forever if the rest of you didn't negotiate over absolutely everything And yes, where I put the rest of my hexes might be dependent on what other hexes pop up around me.

@IH - I'd trade for Quecenn Rarron. I can't really offer you any other systems with a planet unless I were to break a previous deal, and I'm not doing that.

My considerations aka Tapper speech

Hex 7; Gravity Rift
Hex 12, Zej Rajja, 2:1
Hex 25, Abyz/Fria 3/2
Hex 30, Alpha Wormhole
Hex 43, Beta Wormhole

Early days that'd leave the galaxy in even expansion I think regarding wormhole, especially if Morgoth gives IH his wormhole too. Once the Ghosts get their wormhole generator it'd be interesting. This is not confirmed yet though. I'll see what D'rek has to say first.

Technically, it is part of the game, so why not play it? Since there are also rules about placing/avoiding anomalies, it makes sense to do it this way.

I think it's better to send it to Blend rather than posting it here. You're giving those whom have yet to place a serious advantage by revealing for all to see your choices.

IH, you'd surely want to keep the planets with influence as they help when Leadership pops. I found as the Creuss command tokens where important and influence was big on getting them. You have a lot of manoeuvrability late on and having command tokens can make you pretty scary. If you control both wormholes you can create a big fleet on each, put down a wormhole anywhere your objective say is needed and go for it. I think there's a VP that requires you to have ships in multiple wormholes too.

Oh, I know. At their convenience

[Morgoth]

Seriously guys, putting up a list of all your systems and where you're placing them is madness. This is an important phase and it will decide much of what will happen in the game. And you're giving all the info for free to everyone, including those whom have yet to post anything. Send it to Blend if you've decided on all of your placements already.
