@ih

After a reconsideration, IF I came to terms with Gnaw to keep away from the alpha wormhole for some time, I'd be willing to negotiate you taking Mehar Xull for the round to complete the objective under the circumstances that you do so as late in the round as possible and you only take 1 infantry and 1 ship to carry them. If that's still possible.

(I spent my morning puking all over the place for about 6 hours)

[twelve]

Gnaw are you using warfare as your first action?

IH I'm going to be using trade first and you will likely be excluded from the refresh unless I can be assured of a couple things. First you will move the destroyer out of my path to Rex before the end of this round and Second you won't make any move on the Meer system this round. Thoughts, counter proposals, role play entertainment, etc.?

I could agree to that. Hope you are feeling better!

The Creuss express dismay, they were not aware that such a puny ship would be of concern to such as the winnu can you not simply pass through the void to arrive at rex unharmed?

The Creuss are always willing to trade with those not at one with the void, a cessation of hostilities for the round could certainly be agreed for trade rights.

[D'rek]

I think you skipped Morgoth, Tatts?

[Itwæs Nom]

Now I just need Gnaw to accept my offer IH

Khell about when are you intending to play logistics? I could pay you 1 tg, possibly 2 if I get to pillage IH this round, or pay the rest next round if not or you wanted more, to play it 2nd turn? I'm also not in rush for you to take the carrier away, but there's some chance I'll destroy it by the end of the turn if it's still there, as you didn't seem bothered by that happening. What do you say?

That'd mean I'd need @Gnaw to hold off 3 turns before taking Lodor. Well you have to play warfare first anyway so that means waiting 2 turns, is that acceptable for the action card, my dear slithery excoconsul?

[twelve]

It's not a concern but more a matter of convenience. Instead of spending multiple actions to remove or go around the ship I can fly through unmolested. The void to Rex isn't yet open to me.

And as I find your negotiations open for interpretation and misunderstanding could you please speak clearly and concisely if my full proposal of you agreeing to not activating the system containing the planet Meer for the remaing of the round by your forces and the destroyer directly north of the Meer system will vacate sometime before the end of this round (and no new units will replace this unit when you leave in case you wanted to pull a Tattersail). In exchange I will provide you with a free refesh of your commodities. Is this acceptable?

Yes I will agree to that. I make no promises about moving into that hex again in future rounds though.

D'rek what happens to your carrier when I move my carrier and infantry into Mansa 3 this turn? I plan on leaving Abyz/Fria undefended but what is to stop you from moving in on them when I do. Especially considering the new objective. Obviously I want good relations with you and do plan on production biomes going in your favour, exchange of SFTT when I vacate Mansa round 3. I just want your thoughts on the matter before making any moves.

It is tempting given the latest public objective... but it's not my intention. If it would reassure you more, do you want to just trade PNs now? How about we exchange both Ceasefires and Trade Agreements, and in exchange you can just keep Mansa III for the rest of the game?

I'd trade both of those things now, and still let you take Mansa in a future round if you'd want it.

Tatts you realise that's effectively you paying d'rek 4 TG to do what she was going to anyway?

If she doesn't research gravity drive in order to move her carrier to Arnor lor I'll be shocked!

Also, she's offering you Mansa and you don't take it. I get that you want to make sure you have a stable alliance with D'rek, but you trade away so many advantages with hardly a concession from her side that pretty soon, you run out of compensations to grant when you would like her to make a move that benefits you and hurts her.

Tatts we still good for 3 for 3 trade?

I understand. As long as it's free by you at the end of the round I'm good. I'd actually would prefer you waiting as long as possible to move it so no one else is likely to claim it and I have the same problem next round.

@IH what about you pay Tatts for my action card trade with Gnaw so I can agree to the alpha wormhole placement on Mehar Xull? Or use your good relations to not have to pay anything or whatever, obviously I wouldn't be pillaging this particular trade

Where's the turtles again

I think that's a few too many steps to be agreeing a deal. Tatts needs to place the wormhole and gnaw needs to agree (and be happy having the alpha wormhole there which I think he isn't, in which case the deal is off anyway)

So do you think Twelve has an Unexpected Action AC and plans to take MR at the end of this round once IH moves the destroyer, or what?
