I know it's a bit premature but thought I would throw this out before the strategy phase. If people are interested in preventing D'rek from getting the influence and VP from owning Rex this round, in case she grabs imperial, I've figured out a way that might work as long as the die are average at best. It would require a turn one use of Tech, A turn 2 or later use of Leadership,Tatts moving his ships off of Ensapta with his first action with any strategy card lower than Logistics and me getting the Logistics Strategy card. Most of that seems very reasonable. Thoughts?


The downside for tatts is he probably loses the ships on berelirta if he doesnt move them right away though

D'rek I can hold off invading Rex until after you gain the influence off of it if possible and you agree to leave with all your troops. Will likely save both of us from losing unnecessary losses.


oh hey i probly should have looked at this earlier ummm still on?

D'rek, Blend and Gnaw, I am open to exchanging SftT as you are the only ones who have not done so yet. First come first serve with this offer as it is mutually beneficial.


Macaw and I will be swapping ours when it comes back around to my turn (meant to do it once we neighboured, forgot, and then Macaw also forgot)


Fair enough.

D'rek what say you?


and this.....

Well I'm pretty sure if you pick up and leave and Morgoth or Gnaw goes or even Tatts or IH for that matter before I'm set-up to immediately come in after I'm not going to be able to beat them to it sooo... probably not. A lot of things have to line up. First you have to be able to actually leave. Currently you have no exit off Rex unless you go through someone and you have either a cruiser to your NW, a cruiser to your NE, a carrier and 2 fighters each to your SW and SE, a Dread carrier and a fighter to your south or a Carrier with sustain damage and a destroyer to your N. Not looking good.

Then you have to have your strategy card action happen before any of the 4 other players that can swoop in and take it before I not only have a clear path but have either the tech or action card able to actually reach Rex. My goal is to take Rex this round. Currently everyone else is scared off by your PDS vS their currently available ground troops. I'm the only one that can not only survive the PDS barrage against my ships but also bring enough infantry to attack survive the fire and have a minimum of 35% odds of winning with perfect shots. So I'm going to have to take my chances and come in cannons hot.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

How exactly do you want help? I'm not in a much better position to help as I'm low on CT and d'rek has my ceasefire.

I could maybe move my cruiser on tar'mann out of the way so you can save your carrier on bereg? But I'd want something for it as that means I have to waste a CT and I leave tar'mann vulnerable.

Though really tatts a single infantry left in your homeworld would have stopped this, and you have the ability to drop infantry anywhere... You got greedy.

I have a construction rider, gaining votes would be really cool. I'll give free trade to anyone that helps and future votes. If someone guarantees an agenda then they can have my SFTT

Are we allow to trade during the strategy phase? If so then we might have a deal.

Depending on the agendas and what side you want to go for, I will likely give you my votes.
