Ooh, IH, it might be perfect for you! Take Bereg without casualties!


And also you don't take any casualties and get to move those infantry somewhere you might want them. I'll take your racial PN instead of the 1tg?


I owe you 1tg? I already forgot about that ;) But sure, let me just double check on the racial PN wording and we may have a deal (but still after I exhaust Bereg).

I'm not sure, but it sounds like you get to choose the planet. But as I only have one other, that seems fine ;)

Man, if I'd actually bothered to look at my racial PN, it would have saved some hassle, like with Nom.

I'd really like to try the Saar again, but not next game. I think I'll go back to one of the more starter-friendly races. I ran before I could walk.

And on that note... I should point out that I'm still holding my racial PN, which gives you an extra strategy CT. Consider it for sale ;)

If Khell attacks Tura Nora, I was offering to recompense you for using it on his attacking forces. My racial PN would be a good alternative payment for that, too, if you prefer.

Or, I'd be up for something like your trade PN and a promise not to pillage me for the rest of the round in exchange for my racial PN. (Given your trade PN is only 2 TGs, and a CT would cost 3 even in ordinary circumstances I think it's a fair deal.)

I currently have Nom's trade pn. FYI
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I have no plans to do that.

We said one TG for me leaving bereg alone until you had exhausted the planet (IE I stall one turn) and you leaving mansa 3 alone. I'll take your racial PN instead of the 1tg. Assuming you are okay with that deal?

And my understanding of your racial PN is when a planet of yours is invaded the invader can move all the infantry and you choose one of your planets to move them too. I'm not sure what would happen if you had no other planets to move them too.

So the deal is you give me your racial PN on your turn and I don't attack bereg until my second turn (by which time you will have exhausted it) and in return you leave mansa 3 alone.

Looks like someone if finally trying for my sftt. Only about 2 or 3 rounds too late to salvage my game but my odds of survival just went up.

Aaand you don't try for Mecatol this round.

D'rek if you take his home world for my sftt my expectation is for you to at least make a decent effort to make Gnaw spend resources to take it back. It's not take it and bail the very next opportunity so all Gnaw has to do is spend 1 tactical action and he gets it back. But bailing leaving infantry would be fine as long as there is an even chance of you fighting off his invasion.

I'm not. Gnaw will probably pop his racial tech and you don't actually go anywhere. And if you do happen to take his home world down the line I'd give you my sftt as soon as I could after you took it and you can do whatever you want after as it has no bearing on actually claiming my card. But thought I would throw my thoughts on that particular result in case you wanted to fulfill the spirit of the request beyond the letter of it.

Did you just... lock yourself in your homeworld on turn 1? ;)

Why in hell would I pop my racial tech? Now I’ve got a super dreadnought blocking that wormhole. And all it costs me is a destroyer??

Yes. Yes he did.

Of course he didn’t have much choice.
