Drek I am waiting on an answer. I'd have taken my turn hours ago if you wasn't so vague. You've almost agreed to the deal but left your answer wishy washy. You're in a good position but you certainly wouldn't be if I take Jol Nar. I'd prefer peace between us.

To all those willing to give IH the trade goods to score the 2 VP public objective as the points leader, why?
It amazes me how willing you people are at giving IH and Morgoth such an easy path to victory.

It's not high on my priority list but no guarantees.
If you want a guarantee of me not attacking it I don't know maybe your political secrets PN, and the trade deal we already proposed and I can guarantee no attacks this turn?

So you'd rather my Political Secrets PN than just my Trade Agreement which would guarantee you 2 additional TGs if Tapper agrees to give me the refresh? I'd be willing to offer it to you for non-agression on Quann this round - as long as Nom also agrees to what I'm proposing with him.
Sure I'll take that if you are offering it.

I will see what Nom has to say, if he agrees to leave Quann alone in exchange for me clearing his path to MR, then I will take you up on this deal, otherwise I will just do something else.

@D'rek what will you pay me not to activate your home world this turn?
Edit - odds are great even if I move dread, carrier, fighter and 4 infantry to take your home planets and destroy the PDS. You'll retailliate with those remaining ships but you'll be weakened with less PDS and no guarantee you'll get the planets back and having to spend a CT on a new space dock to boot.
I'm proposing that instead of doing that I play construction giving you an opportunity to move ships away from Corneeq/Resculon. That way I don't destroy them and you can build in your home world as all those ships reach there. You pay me 6 trade goods to do this and your Support for the Throne for the loss of VP's and grief you have caused me. That way you get peace of mind that I won't be attacking you and it puts me back in the game to compete.

Seems pretty suicidal on your part since it makes it ever so easy for me to blockade your HW and any other planet you try to build a dock on and build with, but okay whatever, let's play some football. So you don't blob my homeworld on your turn, and then on my turn I build in JolNar and give you my sftt and the goods.
And the ships/infantry in corneeq?
Yes and the ships/infantry in corneeq

Drek I'm going to bed. Just for the sake of clarity and prosperity can you outlay what are deal is?
Imo on my turn instead of taking your hoemworld
You are paying me 6 tgs and I'll perform a different action. Most likely construction.
On your turn you are going to move your ships back to Jol Nar systems and give me your SFFT
no shenanigans. Peace between our people.

Meh MR is not really my immediate goal, even if it was I could just take the path via hex just above gwynnan
Since you're offering your whole trade and political PNs to the points leader who would barely have anything to gain otherwise anyway (sigh ok not my problem I'm hardly competing for a win) I'll ask for your ceasefire and to offer me some handy AC

Blend I agree with Nom on giving anything to IH. I seriously doubt he has any plans to come through that wormhole. There are 4 other people that would fuck up his ships. Of course he will say he has plans when you are offering him something. Use those resources to work something out with Nom instead of padding the point leaders resource stack.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.
