Really? If you can and can convince me it's possible it's yours. Forgive me if I feel this is a ploy to prevent me from helping Morgoth win. I want to guarantee someone wins this round. I don't care who.

And don't worry about Tatts taking whatever card you need. I have the action card to prevent him from grabbing whatever card you need.

I see a couple of paths for you to do it. Imperial, lead for the front, taking my home world and 1 secret objective is the easiest choice. But If IH has flank speed he can also take my home world so you would have to contend with that. A less obvious choice would be 2 secret objectives and a 2 point VP

With IMPERIAL I could fulfill two public objectives as well as one secret objective to reach 14.

That being said, I don't actually want your PN. I want to win honourably :)

If they are Action Phase SOs you can fulfill as many as you like.

@Blend, since we have multiple players confused about how many action cards they have in here / in their status updates, maybe you could just post a list here of what everyone's AC count should be at (easier than us all waiting for players to go back and fix their status posts)?

I mean if I had twelve's PN I could concievably win this round. Can't everyone say that at this point of the game?

Yeah. I'd have a good shot too, but I couldn't guarantee it.

As long as the Game PMs are up to date (and yall know I haven't been the best at doing that properly) everyone should be at the following amounts of action cards:


Tapper - 3
Morgoth - 6
Twelve - 5
Drek - 5
Tatts - 3
Nom - 7
IH - 1
Gnaw - 2
Khell - 6

Yes but looking at the objectives and your board position I think your best bet is Imperial, lead from the front 1 secret objective and taking Rex (especially if you land the destroy pds action card). If you have any secret objectives that allow you to score outside the status phase those are also possible.

During the Status Phase you may claim one PO and one SO - no more.

However, there are some SO's that are combat-related (i.e. destroy a player's flagship, use bombardment to destroy final infantry, use PDS to destroy last ship in a system, etc.) which are scored as soon as you meet the requirement - if you had several of those, you could ostensibly score them all during one round as long as you could meet the requirements of each of them.

So vote for me to draw a new Secret Objective :D

Actually no. Tapper, Nom, D'rek and Morgoth are the only ones mathematically able to score enough points to win at the end of the round with D'rek and Morgoth the most likely.

Not true, I could conceivably win this round too if I fulfilled all my action-based SOs and took Imperial.

I mean, it's not likely, but theoretically it's possible :)
