So whoever has the blow up a space dock action card; If you are willing to use it on Daemon I'm willing to pay for it. I've got 5 trade goods worth of trade agreement pns for that service.


Morghy's PN is probably not really worth that much in the current situation

So are you saying you have the card. If not the trade agreement pn, then what would be enough to use it on my behalf? A little pay back from the early round blackmail perhaps?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Take him for everything you can Nom. He REALLY doesn't want me dropping a war sun on Everra.

Edit: he goes from 96% to 40%.

It's your turn Tapper, what are your thoughts on giving me speaker and me letting your choice fall to you?

Not deciding on that yet. For one,it is too early to determine what if any objectives I can fulfill this round.

If we do that, because of the 'attack-Tapper-or-he-will-win' spirit that currently seems to be in vogue, I will also want a solid guarantee that there is not going to be any tricks with Racial tech to swap Strategies.

I'd be looking at your Trade PN, with me trading it or the 6 TG it gives me back to you when I activate the Strategy next turn.

If you did give twelve and I the refresh you should be well placed to claim the 2 vp objective I'd think.

Khell currently holds my trade PN, and that is the last time I am giving that out.

I can give you my political secrets PN as hostage to good faith but it's up to you.

I can give you my word that there'll be no shenanigans from me regarding strategy selection, I currently would like trade, technology, leadership or imperial so whatever you choose would not affect me.

Realistically though, if Tapper says he wants IMPERIAL and it will obviously win him the game immediately, there's no way you can honour that.

@IH - well, your turn now. If you are going for MR, great. If you're not going to go for MR, then like Khell had brought up before, how about giving me IFF so I can take a stab at his HW? Not worth it for me to lose 1 VP for nothing on MR, but it is worth it for me if I will possibly get a PO out of it.

He needs 6 points and has no SO available to get so he cannot win next round. Even if he scores 2 somehow this round.

2 this round from a PO

Next round: you let him have IMPERIAL. He plays it and gets 1 vp from MR + fulfills another 2 VP PO. In the Status Phase he fulfills another (1 VP or 2 VP) PO. Win.

Vefut can't be IFF'd, but there are other avenues since I have LWD.

Yes. I did say we can't let up on Morgoth, either, and I am still hopeful that the players who can actually access him will do... something.

That being said, Morgy has a lot less likelihood of getting the IMPERIAL strategy card. Pretty much the only way he can do so is if he has the right action card or if we're all horrible players.

You mean... like how he ended up with it this round?

And if I pinky-promise I will not take Imperial, will you let me off the hook?
