I just hope I can out stall him now so I know in advance where I'm cut off.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I have logistics so I will be able to take something as long as I can out stall him and taking out his flagship is the priority over the Meer system.

Khell you don't have much to give, you only like to take this game :D



If Nom does my refreshes, then I'll have a fair few TGs I'd be willing to trade :(



Still bad at this giving values to stuff but what about the refresh and those 3 tgs for the battlesattion?

And I'm pretty sure I asked you what you can offer and you never replied


I think I asked in turn what you wanted for it :evil: I could accept this deal. Just so you know, I'm leaving MR to whoever wants it next round. My time on it is over.

Well sorry for breaking our little loop then

Aight

As I said I'm not certain yet that I really wanna sell it, do you want the AC anytime soon?

Wow.

That was quite a battle.

I fully expect I screwed SOMETHING up, but considering how many times I had to reroll some stuff I'd missed, I think I'll have done fairly well!

Whoa, quite a battle indeed. And here I thought Khell would off a bunch of bombardment after. Nice action cards again, Tapper!

And interestingly, that leaves both IH and Twelve with the ability to take 4 dreads to MR for bombardment and claim it themselves, but whoever goes first makes it easier for the 2nd to follow...

1 tactical token and a whole lot of nothing else. Well action cards but nothing else.

Sorry, as I mentioned in your PMs, I hadn't noticed the new provisional as it was in the game PM rather than your chat PM. Not that it matters, but I've removed your PDS fire from Khell's action.

For future reference, folks, it's appreciated if you could keep any orders and stuff in your Chat PM. The less places I have to look for information before resolving anything, the less likely I am to miss it.

The one thing special to that battle was the Peophecy of Ixxt for Khell, but I think he only has fighter I in which case he wouldn't hit on a 7, so it didn't affect the battle.

Based on that fight, I'd say a red/blue Fighter II/Carrier II/Duranium Armor build has real potential for Sol.

The hard part of that is that Fighter and Carrier upgrades are green/blue tech while Duranium Armour is deep into red, so it would take a while to build up to. But yeah, I'd still say it's viable as a mid/late game option.

Ugh...

Looking into that I noticed that I still managed to miss a bunch of Khell's fighter rolls... He gets two shots with his flagship, so I was a dice short on all the rolls from when he was down to 5 fighters on...

Gonna have to revise the fight.

Missed some of yours too...

Okay, sorry, revising the fight now, might take a while, hopefully it won't change the outcome too much.

Turns out that I had done most of the actual rolls but hadn't updated the dice number in the initial part of the rolls (so like, it said 7d10, but there were actually 8 rolls for example), though I did miss a couple in the first round of combat.

That being said, the new last round of space combat was updated as Khell rolled 2 8's on his fighters, which are hits because of Ixxth.

OK :( less nice for me, but more honest, I guess.

I do have one rules question: does Chaos Mapping count as production (it says 'produce'in Khell's post) for the purposes of Prophecy of Ixxt?

Because if so, Khell doesn't have the Prophecy anymore if he has used Chaos Mapping, which he has (after all, Ixxt says 2 fighters, Chaos Mapping allows 1 unit only).

Ah. Google is Khell's friend :evil:

So Chaos Mapping requires production capabilities but isn't production, so Ixxt (and Sarween) do not apply. Check. The fight stands as is :D
