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.

Wouldn't he just be able to attack the ships in the blocking system and then use fleet logistics to move past?

Not if he doesn't have enough tactical tokens to do so.

I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Deep space cannons and such fire in bereg lirta fyi, no GDS, not that it's going to matter much but I feel the brave freedom fighters of bereg and lirta should be honoured by a futile display of force.

D'rek, are you not going to research tech? Tatts played the tech card. His post doesn’t actually make that very clear.

Nah, I think I have enough tech already. Need to conserve CTs. Researching anything now would just be helping Morgoth-via-you.

Not surprised really. You proved last game your word is meaningless.

You proved this game you have no interest in working towards even your own victory, let alone helping the rest of the board to hold back a leading player, and in fact you actively helped them for... no particular reason. I have no idea why you think anyone would want to actually help you when you act like that. You should've stuck to binding deals.

In a game that’s months long second place is just the first loser. My view is win or bust. And my chances of victory ended with losing Gwynan. Scoring all my SOs earlier was a dumb thing to do.

Yeah but you still had a shot at scoring objectives and getting 1st while also helping the board by attacking Morgoth but you already decided you couldn't win so was actively doing things that helped him. That is what we have issue with.

Well, by your win or bust philosophy there is no reason for me to have followed through, nor any reason for you to be mad.

I know and I've even mentioned that I'll give it to you even with your intent to attack me in Rex.

Appreciated, and congratulations on your successful effort at deflecting me I guess
