Nom, if you want my racial you can trade with me on your turn.

I thought it would go to me?


I had you as next in line after Nom - did I mix that up? I don't really care which of you it goes to next, just that only one or the other of you can actually use it this round.

Well, Nom has it now, so no crying over spilt milk.
During last Status Phase, you did say I was in line after Twelve and as a result, I planned my research/scoring around that (using it to achieve the 2 unit upgrade Victory Condition).

Tatts, with my Industrial Initiative done you're all good now to take back Arnor/Lor whenever you want. If you play warfare first I'll use the secondary of it to move the destroyer out, but if you don't want to wait I don't mind if you go now and just destroy the destroyer.


I'll play warfare then that frees up my ships to be able to move. I may leave you Arnor/Lor depending on what I can achieve. Where are you planning on moving the dread and destroyers to?


Destroyer in Arnor/Lor to the gravity rift (since you want the beta WH kept clear). Homeworld forces to Mehar Xull. Or maybe Saudor.


For an SO I need a ship in the G. Rift. If you want the TG's for activating the system with the destroyer in I can do that no problem, You won't have to waste a CT moving it.


Gaaaaaah you want the gravity rift AND the beta WH clear? Those are both my SOs :)

Ah, no wonder you took so many tactical CTs. So Nebula, B-WH, and the Rift?

What if you send a ship from Corneeq/Resculon down to the asteroid field or empty system below me, instead of B-WH?

That'd work but you have 3 PDS II's down there, do they have to fire?

Furthermore, It's the G-rift I'd leave empty as I want to park ships in the Beta Wormhole, that's where my main force will land.

edit, I actually can say - but I could take Mallice this round you see, that'd break Tapper's connection to IH.

wait wait I'm being dumb. I just lost WH-A to Morgoth. This makes no sense. Doh

Ok what if I go Grav Rift (with the destroyer from Arnor/Lor) and asteroid field, you go nebula + WH-B + empty spot below jol-nar. Does that work? Or too much hassle?

That's fine, I'll leave the blank hex last so you have time to move your forces into Mehar Xull

Tapper, you haven't answered in regards to the action cards we will swap. If I give you the action card that gives you a stall will you use it on Morgoth as your next action?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Nom does not have it yet - I'm only allowed to trade 1 PN per turn, so I was only able to give him my Support on my turn.

Before we all do all this confusing swapping:

Morgoth the reason I’m willing to help Twelve take Rex from you is so you two will destroy a bunch of each other’s ships. Then I’ll tske it away from him the very next turn. Hence why I told him I’d leave Imperial to him so long as it was useful to him.

As long as you still give me Morgoth's ceasefire and agree to leave me Imperial I can accept the possibility you will attack me right after I clear Morgoth from Rex.

I've ran some simulations and it's only about 50-50 you can even win with what I hope to have left after my fight with Morgoth. But with the way my opponents battle rolls against me is any indication Morgoth will probably beat me.

Just realised you eres siphoned after morgoth moved into the alpha wormhole i would have taxed that too. Not sure if you accounted for that. I think khell forgot that I can tax you now. Assume I'm always taxing you :)

Taxation is a vital part of any functioning economy.

If twelve holds my cease fire, how will I attack him? I’d have to find some other outlet for my ire I imagine.
