@Blend I'm gonna need 6tgs to leave Silvano


No, you can have 5, or you can effectively kick me out of the game. Just know that if you do kick me out of the game, I'll continue doing what I can to fund your enemies! :p Gnaw could have won this game by now if he hadn't pissed away troops in pissing me off. He lost two fairly large fleets because of it. Now, I'll admit I haven't got much in terms of power left, but there are still action cards headed my way that could be a real pain in the ass to you.


You tempt me

It's not like I have a victory to lose you see


Have at it then. Just because I'm in the worst position in the game doesn't mean that I'll just let you extort me.

I don't need you to move out this round. Even if I hadn't already passed, when I use the Construction secondary, I have to put a CT down, so I wouldn't be able to build this round anyway. Not to mention I've already passed. In fact, it'd probably be better for me if you kept the space blockaded for the rest of the round so as to discourage others from trying to take it.

The 5TGs are still up for grabs for you moving on the first turn of the next round - we can do the trade on that turn so it's binding, but I'd be willing to trust you with a non-binding deal if you want the TGs this round to claim the objective as long as you promise that your first action next round will be to clear the space over Silvano.

You probably meant ‘plans’, but I like to think the Arborec call them ‘plants’ :doh:

Then do what you will, but you won't be getting 6TGs out of me.

Note Twelve using the Ceasefire still leaves Tatts CT in Lazar-Sakulag. I think that means he's at 1T, rather than the 2T listed?

That's right, I should have stuck to my original plan and activated his HW to make him play the ceasefire.

Drek if you have the means of holding off logistics then he'll have to activate it next turn if he has a CT if he doesn't then Tapper withholding leadership prevents many things.

Alas, I just burned through what is probably my last stall AC, and all my stuff is locked down in Bereg so it's unlikely I'll be able to hold off Logistics any longer, but we'll see!

Yes, I didn’t edit it. He’s at 1CT.

Damn Tapper. It’d be downright amusing if you could stall 2 more turns.

PSA: Tapper’s waiting for a new phone (and a new elbow) after becoming yet another victim of those infamously dangerous Dutch cycling lanes - or as we call them, murder funnels. Please exercise patience during this dark time.

Dutch murder funnels? I thought Netherlands was supposed to be all about that great cycling infrastructure! :lol:

Hope your elbow heals back up to full, Tapper, or else that you get a cool robot elbow that shoots lasers and does your taxes for you.

FYI I'm in the states for the next 2 weeks, so if Tapper does post my move might be delayed.

I've stuck in a provisional regardless.
