Game map has been updated up to end of Khell's turn.


I should only have 2 infantry on Everra. I lost 1 in the fight.


Thanks - will include in the next update.

Tapper what can I do to convince you to use Diplomacy as your next action. I desperately need it now or else I'm out of the game round 2.


If Tapper does want to wait one more turn before using DIPLO (not a bad idea considering Khell's planets are all exhausted currently), I can trade you (via Tatts, if he is willing) an "as an action" AC to let you stall 1 turn until after Tapper uses DIPLO.


@Tatts - alternatively, if you're interested, you could just play the ^^ card on Khell yourself, if you want to/don't mind stalling a turn.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

I'll get to a computer and come back to you. You think it's a good idea?

Nom you can't do this as a) you don't have a space dock on lodor and b you don't have the fleet capacity to have 4 ships in one space.

Twelve just in case you've not realised if you activate winnu with anything other than logistics gnaw gets 5 PDS shots on anything you build or have in the system. Which is really nasty.

Pull yourself together, D'rek, you're becoming a paranoid wreck (hey, that rhymes!). Though I would have liked Tura Nora, I have no current plans for you. Remember that I had to remove the CT from Herrah as it was the only one I had down on the board.

Now, you, on the other hand, look like you're preparing to leap toward Mecatol ;)

Now why don't you want to play it/waste it yourself, D'rek?

Also, you can't be like 1) Nom and Khell make a deal for Tura Nora; 2) You see that, you take Tura Nora; 3) "Oh my, Khell, it seems like you're planning to take Tura Nora and coming for me!" :D

You're trying to set me up to be an aggressor when the sequence of events doesn't bear out. Now that you have TN, I don't have plans for it. And besides, it's Nom who gets to take first stab at it ;)

Yeah and I had plans for Mecatol and winning the game by round 4 :p Again though, doesn't matter, if D'rek wants to tie herself in knots needlessly worrying about me, that's up to her.

Our sectors are resource poor and overpopulated. For there to be peace in the galaxy first there must be a reduction in those who hunger for those spare resources.

The Winnu teeter on the brink. Should you also give them a push we can share the spoils and work together to bring wise leadership to our galaxy.

I.e. anyway you can park a ship in their home system thereby blockading them?

I literally could only get 1 cruiser there this round and he has a PDS with GLS. I could advance to Thibah with 2 cruisers and a carrier which is what I was planning to do anyway.

Like IH says can you not fire upon any ships built in that system with your PDS from your flagship? It would prevent him from building.

I didn't think you'd move so early to be honest. I was going to prepare to invade next round, because i'd need more infantry for ground battle.

The carrier cruiser and 3 fighters could take out Arinam/Meer, you'd get shots in from your flagship in that battle and you wouldn't have to use GLS. Meaning you can save GLS for when/if he builds.

I can either, move carrier to Thibah with 2 cruisers this round, or build a carrier, loads of infantry this round and use Warfare next round to invade his home system. That'd be 2 carriers 2 cruisers and loads of infantry moving in.

If someone other than gnaw activates a system he can only fire at the active player ie whoever activates the system and not whoever is already in the system.

I had no choice but to go this round. Twelve has a tendency to build lots of dreads. Needed to cut that off early.

I’m short a CT. I can either destroy his fleet in arinam/meer OR shoot at anything he builds in Winnu system. IMO the existing fleet takes precedence. If you take Thibah immediately I can provide cover fire should he move against you later in the round.
