Heh, sick of waiting. LoL. In the last 24 hours, one person has actually posted their action. So frustrating! LoL

Although I am also still waiting for Gnaw to respond too, so I'd be delaying until I got that response either way.


I read that as "sick of eating" at first and was like "noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

So Gnaw - you leave Quann, Dal Bootha and Xxehan alone, I leave Gwynan alone? I figure 3 resources and 3 influence worth of planets would be worth not losing all the ships and probably the space dock and infantry on Gwynan. What do you say?


I don't respond well to threats. I would have thought you'd have figured that out by now.

It's more of a promise than a threat. We can end this amicably, or we can continue to fuck with each other, thus making it impossible for either of us to win the game. If you're worried about getting your SftT back if I don't attack Gwynan, you'll still get it back when I take my HW back. Up to you - either I clear out Gwynan on my first turn, or I leave it alone and come back to consolidate my power and leave your rather expensive ships where they are.

No, that would be me. 3 meals a day? How the fuck do you people do that day after day after day? Sooooooo much food! And then people go to the gym to exercise it off! Really? It's so much more efficient to just not eat the food in the first place. doh.

Damn a flank speed and an unexpected action? Nice action cards.

I am pretty confident I will be able to ward off whatever you choose to throw at me if you choose to do so. But if it is any consolation, I would be clearing out Gnaw's forces on Gwynan then moving on. I have no designs on MR, particularly now that I have to get my HW back.

Blend, Gnaw has a sabotage so if you are counting on a flank speed card then I hope you have a second one to overcome that hiccup.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You know Blend, your ‘assurance’ as to Gwynan sorta falls apart when you tell someone else you’re going to clear it out before moving on.

Have no fear on that front. You are far away and provide no objectives. I am happy to let your squable play itself out without interference from the Barony.

My offer to leave it alone in exchange for you leaving Dal Bootha, Xxehan and Quann alone still stands.
