IH, I am planing to place the A wormhole token in Arnor-Lor and spread my roots there. I hope that doesn't collide with what you've got planned. There are limited options left for me with how Tapper and Nom managed to vacum up all the empty systems left over from Khell, and I need a place to expand away from my own home systems.



D'rek is going to go spare :p

@Gnaw I do have devious plans, but they can go awry so I would probably need to shoot the shit with you.

With Twelve grabbing his flagship this turn I have a good way of pummelling him to death but I'd need to see what you say first.

Ie Say I attack Twelve first with a kamikaze sort of army to destroy as many fighters and damage as many ships as possible expecting them to die.

Then you attack Twelve with the army you build to further destroy/harass/damage his ships and then I attack him again with a decent army. It'd mean we can wipe out his ships. It just requires a bit of thought. Logistics would come in very handy here for me.

I'm not taking New Albion-Starpoint, which I easily could do, but I'd rather not spark an all out war. Arnor-Lor is a tolerable loss I think, and if not, well I am good at digging in.

Quite a few reasons, expand borders VP, later on their maybe a capture someones HW VP, 4 influence planet which I'm starved of at the moment, a worry off my back and focus elsewhere. I am talking building destroyers, sending with cruisers and getting rid of the fighters, so that when our armies actually fight they'd be hitting proper ships.

Exactly. Destroying at least one ship and taking one of Gnaw's planets - the criteria for Twelve to give you a free point.

It's 2 hexes away... why would you need to? I didn't even know you had the wormhole PN, I thought you were just going to Quann to get close enough to go to Saudor directly.

When I made the deal I was hoping to move in on one of his empty systems, but you and Tapper got the lot of them before I got to move.

i obviously don't want you to go either Lodd Eru, as it towards Gnaw but that may have been good for production, or Vefut which has no ships and Tapper has just moved his flagship in the other direction. If his HW was possible you'd have 6/4 planet resources there. It just looks like you want those 4 hexes which are fairly close to each other to spread.

Vefut is perhaps the worst option available to me. Unless I want to give the victory to Nom or D'rek I guess. As for IH, I enjoy our understanding and besides, though Gnaw and I get along I would be pretty short sighted if I made a choice that would remove any pressure he may have on his other flank. There's no pressure from you after all.
