Now Khell we need to decide on the price of you disposing all these empty turtleshells from my planets in round 6 before advancing any further


Well, the Saar have vast experience in cleanup duties.


That's why I asked you in the first place!

Can someone check my turn, Morgy?


It’s correct.


;)


Okay I think our little Lodor invasion should be settled for this round. You can still activate your blank alpha hex and use your flagship to destroy my cruisers, but once again I'd like to ask you to cease your hostilities that you so unjustly took upon yourself to inflict upon our rather patient coallition. I'm offering you payment of 2 TGs(1 this round 1 next) to leave those cruisers alone for the remainder of this round, since you wouldn't gain much from destroying them anyway, and I'm still interested in keeping our relations civil even after you tried to attack without me giving any reason for such aggression.


He can't destroy your cruisers through the wormhole without PDSII.


His flagship can use space cannons in systems adjacent to it


Ah yes, forgot it was automatically equipped with that.

Why do I suspect Khell and Nom are inevitably headed for a fight ?


Because they're setting themselves up as two snakes coiled around each other?


I wen to the grocery store tonight. Bought popcorn.

😁


Shoulda bought new antennas too :rollseyes:


Ignorant human! The Xxcha do not possess nor need antennae. Do not confuse us with the extinct Sardakk N'orr. They too were a warlike culture who confused weapons for racial longevity.


See, silly animal, I was talking about antennas, not antennae.

Hmm. Since it's your turn still why don't you go ahead and edit in that bribe, er gift.

And, in case all y'all hadn't noticed, Nom was shadowing that last game. He's not quite the neophyte all y'all think he is. He was questioning me off and on in our PM.

Also, he’s very fucking bright.

Yes I kept quite a close attention to the chatty thread last game, not so much to the game thread

You've mentored me well excoconsul

Ok, I think that's us sorted for this turn.

Unfortunately, there's something I now need to ask Tapper ;)

@ Tapper: I will entirely abandon Tar'Mann for you this round if you do not take it until next round. If you can't agree to that, then I'll have to leave behind ships/GFs you'll have to fight through if you want that system and potentially the ones above it.

If you keep it empty next round as well, we have a deal. I will not touch Tar'mann this round.


This deal doesn't say anything about khells homeworld right? Which is also empty and in range of your ships.

As implied in my first post, he'll be able to take that next round without fuss as well if he wants. If he wants to jump ahead and take them this round, I'll raise a quizzical eyebrow but otherwise shrug. I might be slightly more loth to continue trading, but also maybe not.

I'm more interested in why you're constantly piping up every single time I make a move or strike a deal, trying to drive a wedge into it.

I’m sure that crossed Nom’s mind. I suspect Khell has met his match in slippery wording.

And I’m going to enjoy his dawning realization so very, very much.

Because you are scary smart, you've had a good start and I think you are the most likely to win and I'd like to stop that :p

Zej Rajja is the one you're invading. And the red tech planet is Lodd Eru not Daemon.
