Hey Gnaw, I can't manage to send ships to you this turn. My lack of tokens is showing itself. Are you fine with getting one next turn and I'll throw in a trade good too? You'll have even more tech to chose from if so.


That’s fine.

Everyone has that extra VP at the moment that I cannot achieve unless I do the deal, I am sure there are others that are looking at the Jol Nar with avid interest but gaining a VP would be my priority. Unless of course Blend and Gnaw could come in to some agreement with me. Where we each get a SftT. Blend gets mine, Gnaw get's Blend's and I get Gnaw's or something like that. Just like you Gnaw and I did last game IH.


I wouldn't be opposed to this if Macaw are in.


Sorry Tatts. Our exchange with Blend is as much a non-aggression pact as VP.

I think what he means is that the point of the trade is that Macaw and I will both have a reason not to attack each other, whereas if we go three ways, one of us will not have that incentive.

If it helps anyone plan there move whilst we wait for morgoth to recover from the dread plague (get well soon Morgoth). I'll be playing imperial next turn and scoring the 8 resources VP. Then I'm passing.

Question. If we destroy a ship with a PDS, do we gain a tech?

No - the card states that you have to destroy a ship during combat. Space Cannon Offense is part of the move phase, and Space Cannon Defense is a separate part of the Invasion phase from Ground Combat.

Tapper, are you taking technology? If so, do you have any idea when you’ll be using it?

Carmel-by-the-Sea supposedly has the best shopping between LA and San Francisco. There’s a store called The Club that sells exclusive designs by Robert Graham. When I walk in there the clerks smile wide and greet me by name. My AmEx card whines.

You playing the Hacan makes me think of those clerks.

I would be willing to attempt to make an accommodation for a turn 1 play of Technology should thst be the card you’re going for.

Nom, I assume Leadership isn't your card of choice next round, but as an added incentive, if you pick something else I'll be sure to return the favor, for instance by giving you the speaker token when the time comes round for me to grab politics.

Well, I’d put in a placeholder for IH but it seems someone changed the password for Hugin

Yeah, back to work today. Exhausted by the five minute walk from the subway, but I ate breakfast and kept it all down, which was nice.

Okay, no issue there. I will likely have no pressing issues to not play it first turn, unless one of my neighbours acts rash, of course.

I see so many deals flying around regarding the timing of strategy cards when we haven't even gotten to the status or agenda phase yet. And I thought I am usually the impatient one.
