@ D'rek:

my suggestion for your Racial PN, going by a valuation of 7 TG for the racial:

I offer my Trade Agreement PN and I will throw my 9 votes on an agenda of your choice this round - believe me when I say either one is very much worth your while.
We can trade 2 of my TG for your 2 commodities (one of which IH will pillage from me, so I pay 1 for the privilege).

If you prefer an agenda phase trade: I am more than happy to wait until then, but I will spend some TG on the Influence objective.


Sounds good, Tapper, I agree to the above.

My preference is to make the exchange on your upcoming turn, if that works for you.


@Blend - sorry, but Tapper asked first. But let me know if you're still interested next round when the PN comes back to me.


Meh, we'll see, it'll be pretty useless to me in future rounds, realistically, cause then I'll just be able to research whatever it was that I need to research.

Just trying to find a way to skip a red pre-requisite in the upcoming round, but if that's not possible, well, then I have to rethink what I can and cannot do.

@Drek

If you're planning to research a red tech next round, I'd be very interested in your racial PN as well - I'd be willing to give you the Unexpected Action card and my Trade Agreement for it. But only if you're going red tech.


What the actual fuck. That would give you Assault Cannon and Duranium Armour and one step to War Sun upgrade. So you'd be super powerful militarily wise.

D'rek I'd snap his hand off for this deal. 4 TG's and that card?


Why would Drek, or even you, have anything to worry about? You're both on the other side of the galaxy, and the chances of me ever getting into any kind of conflict with either of you is very slim.

I'm not worried. But then again, I'm always overconfident :p

I think I've already taxed you three times this turn.

Also it's your go I believe...

Btw, Tapper. I’m not after Technology this coming strategy phase.

Yes, you did, but only twice on trades - once on popping Tatts' PN. Our agreement only concerned trades.

Ouch. You know I was on your side that other action card. This one? That’s definitely ‘hostile’. 😁

Yeah, no kidding. I've been debating whether to keep fucking with Nom or to try expanding towards Tapper with that War Sun, Tapper's not really giving me much of a choice.

Certainly won't be getting his hands on my racial PN, that's for sure.

Blend said he already considered Zohbat lost, anyway when he set his little supernova trap. As such, it is fair game for a stall card, hmmm? :p

Definitely not - now you're just paving the way for Nom to take that tile even more easily. It's a second, totally unprovoked dick move from you is what it is. :p

So you think that the best way to deter me from becoming your neighbour is to annoy me? You've all but ensured that I'm going to be your problem rather than Nom's now...

You're welcome. I mean, I will do my utmost to obey the letter but dodge the actual having to pay part. I expect the same from you :p

Hey Blend. Seeing how you have several fronts now. I have all the prerequisits for researching war suns, but would like to focus elsewhere. If you give me your PN when it’s avilable, and promise me you’re moving your carrier et.al straight back through the asteroid field, I’ll leave it alone.

My PN is not worth a carrier and some fighters. As I said, if you want to waste the CT on something you don't have to waste a CT on, then go ahead, but I'm not paying you to not waste that CT - it's your budget, not mine.
