any thoughts on our proposal blendo?


I am seriously considering it just to get your PN, but I'm probably going to hold on to my racial for now. I'd like to enjoy a couple rounds of military superiority while it still lasts!

Once they get it they won't likely need anything else from you all game. The Nekro with war sun tech round 1 or 2. That would be suicide.


Sure, but it would prevent them from ever getting War Sun II, which means I'd still have the more mobile War Suns... Plus if I ally myself with the Nekro, then they'd be the rest of your problem, not mine, really. My slice has probably the worst planets in the galaxy, I don't see why anyone would want to even vacation here unless they wanted to make a move on my Home System.


We don’t want war suns to proliferate. We will not use the PN without your permission or until another race besides yourself has the technology. Reducing our assimilation options by one player seems like a cheap price to pay to keep that particular technology limited to natural research rate.


Suuuuuuuuuuuure

That PN trade was a part of my consideration on race choice. I figured the Nekro and Hacan PNs would be the best trade opportunities. Had I had better choice of starting spot I might have been the space kitties and you something else.

I'd like to have confirmation of the trade. I'm using warfare to move the cruiser. A swap of commodities affects my tactical Action.

Edit: oh well. Morgoth or Tapper, we are up for a swap of commodities or tgs for our commodities.

Tapper/Nom - I completely forgot to add my trades in my post, can you please ensure to do our trades on your turns? Just want to make sure I've flipped all my commodities to TGs before it comes back around to me in case I decide I want to use Leadership secondary and the primary gets played next round.


Well that's why I asked about the trade

Shouldn't that still be an illegal move since the transaction will only take place after the leadership is played cause our turns are after D'rek's?



Yes, Tapper/Nom can't trade until they've actually refreshed commodities on their turn.


Oh yeah... duh!! Sorry, doing this in between budget meetings, so only half paying attention!

I am not going to lie, the idea of a Nekro/Muaat alliance sounds tasty to me - we could rule the galaxy and put down all these other piddly races. But I still think I'm going to hold on to it for another round or two. Given you wouldn't use it until I said it was okay, that shouldn't be a problem, right? And a couple of rounds should give us good anecdotal evidence whether or not we should trust each other on a more long-term basis. Trust me, though, you're still very much near or at the top of my list at the moment.

I think you meant Wellon. Mellon is currently diplomacied, and out of reach.

You never agreed to either of my trade proposals, so no? You were online twice since the last proposition and didn't respond to it, and at the same time you arranged with Morgoth to exchange all your commodities (amongst other things) so it sure looked to me like you weren't interested in a trade, hence I've setup other trades of all my commodities for this round during that time.

If it's not commodities you are after, than what you are proposing?

Sorry I was talking about the racial PN trade? Did we not finalise? Been busy so only been popping in, we should be neighbours next round right? Should have some more time tomorrow so will go through properly.

Can we all make sure to confirm in your posts that you are refreshing commodities - it's not enough for Blend to say that he 'offers' free refreshes to such and such persons - acknowledge in your posts that your are refreshing for free, please (e.g. IH, Morgoth).
