I see.

@Nom - YOU HAVE TO LIST PNs IN YOUR GAME POSTs. It's not even just the untidied latest one, it seems you literally never do. Fix it.

I am very persuasive.

I've not put any trades in because I'm still unsure as to what Gnaw has actually agreed to with twelve. Will do trades once Gnaw actually trades his ceasefire.

My preference is to make a binding deal with twelve ie i give twelve my rscial PN to attack morgoth and he trades it to Tapper.


Binding Deals are good Say on my turn if I activate Rex IH Agrees to no pillage and gives me his racial, Gnaw Gives me Morgoth's Ceasefire and Tapper Gives me his action card and I give Tapper 2 action cards.

The only part of the deal I have issue with is the fact that you have 8 Trade goods now. So instead of waiting until my turn for the trade you could make a trade Tapper's Turn to exchange your 8 TGs to Tapper for your promise of protection and Tappers Trade agreement PN So on my turn I get the action cards and trade goods at the same time and then Tapper can assign you his biomes or however you guys want to work it out.

As it is Tapper's turn right now. I just want confirmation that Gnaw will still give me Morgoth's Ceasefire regardless of if he is attacking me right away or not.


yes


Actually, no. No deal.

Now that IH has mirror computing he is going to cover the spread next round at the latest. There's no path for me to be able to get there before him. So, if I can't win, my preference is to help Morgoth.

Morgoth, anything you need from me to help you?


Gnaw, that tech only helps him on 3 of the phase II secret objectives. If an objective is revealed that he can't score you still have a shot. your odds are definately lower but they are still likely better than mine at the moment and I'm still trying.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Fiiiiinally he gets Mirror Computing. Can't believe you waited this long! Welp, if IH's last SO is the 4-tech-1-colour one I guess that's it then. Otherwise, I think he can only get to 11 in this agenda phase.


@Tatts - I think I will refresh commodities after all, since IH played it this early. Were you already all set for commodity trades with Tapper, or did you want to trade some?


Also, doubt anyone cares too much at this point unless they're trying to fulfill a particular objective, but I'm done all the researches I actually needed, so if anyone wants a copy-JolNar-tech promissory note it's for sale for cheap (since its so late in the game) and I'll research whatever you want.


I can trade with you. Tapper needs IH racial before he does trades.

I'd have your racial to get lightwAve deflector but it's not huge.

Huh, well, if you could hold off on attacking me I can dedicate my fleet to burning twelve's traitorous self out of the galactic center. That would be imminently helpful, and also somewhat satisfying to you I imagine.

It doesn't look like it I think, but maybe I'm biased and too optimistic.

So are we going ahead without Gnaw? I'm still willing to give my racial and not loot the transactions. Twelve? Tapper?

Well, Twelve needs to accept the agreement sans Gnaw, otherwise we (I mean, I) just donated vast amounts of Action Cards and TGs to Twelve for nothing.

Tapper i thought we were exchanging commodities (unlooted) as well?

I'll agree to the trade as soon as twelve says he is accepting the current deal.
