Just Tatts, Twelve, and Morgoth left (in that order).

I mean the turn right after trade has been played

Actually as I wouldn't have commodities anyway at the point you couldn't trade with me anyway on your turn

Leads me to a question, can trades be played inbetween the secondaries? I thought they cannot but I think it'd make more sense considering how the secondaries are played in the rl version

We've played sort of fast and loose with exactly when in someone's go a trade happens. I've seen people do it before doing their secondaries, and others do it after doing their secondaries. No one's tried in between two secondaries as yet...

Status phase time? I'm assuming no need to play in order as no agendas?

In irl you could do a trade between 2 secondaries if one of the player's involved in transaction turn happened inbetween them right?

In the previous two games I have done so. Execute trade secondary, trade commodities, use trade goods to execute another secondary. I’ve also seen others do the same. Given the way we have to execute Strategy card secondaries we have to modify table rules to make the game playable.

If they can do before secondaries, there's no reason they can't do it between secondaries, too.

I find it funny that thread had to flip over to a next page for the attachment tag to stop working

Yeah, IRL the secondaries don't happen "on your turn" so your trading can't happen before or between on *your* turn, but if it's another player's turn anywhere in that timeframe they can trade with you on *their* turn, which winds up being before *your* turn.

We may as well allow imperial secondaries to be played during the status phase rather than wait around.

And yes trades during the secondary phase makes sense to me.

Yup.

Or does Khell want us to wait for placeholder Twelve and Morgoth PASS posts and a Start of Status Phase mod post?

Boast. We have taken our natural place as the leaders in the competition for the Throne!

Admission. The next 11 VPs will be somewhat more difficult to obtain.

Easy enough to add to the status phase won't make much difference.

Map has been updated, so you can proceed with status phase. If anyone does still want to play the Imperial secondary, state in your status post and I'll PM you your new SO.
