And how fucked up is my situation that both the player to my left and my right get to pick strategy cards immediately before me.


That was a factor when I made the decision to invade you.

Tatts, if I don't take Diplomacy, Twelve will use Logistics to take Everra from me. I still think you should take Politics. *shrug*

Tatts, take whatever you like. You haven't crossed me (technically) yet so I have no quarrel with you. Do what helps your game. Attacking me won't do that. Once I'm gone Gnaws troops will be on your border and he doesn't have your support for the throne to prevent him from attacking you. Where as you would have his to dissuade you from attacking him.


Don’t need to attack him. He and I needed elbow room.
You just happened to be occupying that space.

Oh. I didn't think through the Thibah implications of him attacking Everra. If he takes Everra from me he is essentially handing Winnu to you turn 1 of the next round.

And...it’ll be easier for me to kick his ass back off Everra than it will to take Fortress Winnu.

Tatts, you are right and I am less right.

Not that I'm advocating for/against wiping twelve, but I think Tatts is correct. At most, if you're worried about Twelve countering DIPLO with LOGISTICS you're still better off to just counter-pick LOGISTICS for yourself anyway.

Gnaw you are best taking Politics and giving the Speaker token to Morgoth so that you are able to pick early and I'll take Politics next time and nominate you speaker to also get early strategy pick. That beats whatever plans Twelve may have, it gives us both advantage and 2 action cards this round may come in useful.

IH before you take your turn let's talk. I think we can help each other and you gain a vp without having to deal with Tatts at all.

Gnaw would you like to trade 3:3? Free refresh

D'rek 2:2? Free refresh

Would you IH 1:1? I'll offer free refresh to you and Twelve for an additional 1TG instead of giving 1 back to Twelve you'd give it to me.

I'll wait to see who has what strategy card to discuss trades further.

IH, looks like Tatts is going to charge you for my refresh. And Gnaw is stating once I'm gone he won't attack Tatts which leaves you and Khell (who I assume will be parked in the asteroid field next to Rex) as his likely targets. If you pop Leadership first I'll have the ability to pay for the refresh but I would like some additional things to go with it that would be mutually beneficial to you as well.

Nom, Khell how much will it cost me to get one or both of you to hit Gnaw's homeworld?

Ah, I see it now. Sorry, it was tucked in the middle of a big chunk of text, so when I was skimming I didn't see it! :crybaby:

What are you offering?

If I did, it would take me some time to get down there. I certainly wouldn't reach it this round.

I understand. Actually you taking Rex this round could possibly help me the most immediately. And as it looks like you will take logistics you will be able to move to the asteroid field as well if you dont want to keep Rex. That would put you in prime position to meet my sftt card offer for Round 4.

Khell, if you didn't know it's also your go for a strategy card selection.
