Tatts - if you agree I'll stall a turn.


I don't agree because IH will only use it if I have 0 strategy tokens. You cannot guarantee that for me.

If you promise not to use it until I am at 0 strategy counters then there would be no problem.


IH - I'll give you 6TGs to give it to me anyway.



Sorry Blend, I'd have done the deal in thanks for the racial, but I'm not willing to go back on my deal with Tatts.

Accidentally deleted my post again, sorry. Delete button should not be next to the reply button on mobile. LoL.

I offered IH 8 TGs.

But do we even border? Is this all a moot point?

LoL of course I definitely thought you had already gone this turn. Still not giving you TGs, and just so it is clear, if Gnaw takes Silvano my interest in Tatts racial will revert to zero.


So, Tatts, what’s it worth to you for me t take Silvano?


I'm not concerned, Silvano makes sense for you. That's leave you needing 1 more tech planet after Wellon.

I am still interested in Tatts' racial as long as Silvano is mine - so if Tatts has spent his ST and we can come to some agreement on how to get it into my hands, IH, I'm stil willing to pay for it.

As I don't neighbour either you or tatts that's going to be challenging!

Hey Gnaw, is there some agreement that we could come to that would make you leave me be?


I sure we can. Although I wouldn't mind having duranium armor. 🤷🏻‍♂️


Alright, we'll make that happen!


Actually, nvm. I thought you had assault cannon. I already have duranium armor.

The earthlings march to war! Against the race that has done nothing to them! Leaving the conquerers of there homeworld and long time harassers alone! Devious is the mind of the earthling, fear them!

Unpredictability can be scary! It was the Nixon administration's strategy towards China I seem to remember, and that worked fairly well. Present Nixon as a crazy person with a finger on the button and then ask them to cooperate.

Tatts, your Warfare secondary action puts you in excess fleet capacity in the beta wormhole. Yes, I know you go below it again with your tactical action primary, but that's a separate action.


Edit: Think about it in terms of normal board game rules. Blend plays Warfare, and then we go around the table and people choose whether to play the Warfare secondary. You play it, and that would mean up to the point when you take your turn, you are in excess of your fleet capacity in that hex.

I'll tidy it up now.

Edit, I left the dread in Arnor/Lor and moved one out of the Beta system.

Nothing personal, I am not going for your homeworld or anything like that. You have Mec Rex and potential to score the TG PO, I am just looking at objectives here.

Are you really surprised? Where else would he go with that fleet of his?

At you, IH, or Gnaw. This is what I get for sticking my neck out to prevent Morgoth from winning I guess. Nom looking to take Rex. Tatts trying to flank me.

Tatts, you do realize you have to hold the tech planets until the end of the round. If you are looking to flank me I'm going to use all these trade goods for logistics and build me a second fleet to take out ships that come my way.

Well if you're going to be like that then I'll have to make sure you cannot build in your HS. It's up to you, if you build on your next action then you'll be protected but immobile. If you don't then you won't be able to.

Okay fucker bring it. You will need light/wave tech to even make it to my home world. And as your moves eliminates whatever smidgen of a chance I had to win I might as well go all out to destroy your ships and troops.

I'm just going for the tech objective. As it stands you have a good chance of getting 3+ points this round and a chance at Imperial next. I'm just having fun, trying to complete objectives :p
