And now you can see how the "real" Agenda Phase goes


Much faster :D

Although they appear to have misunderstood laws - she put a Tech Rider on the law 'passing' but the law (elect a planet to make it a blue tech planet) was always going to pass, but the question is which planet was it going to be!


Yup. And it looked like she read both agendas before they processed the first one, which is a big no-no. Minor stuff, though.

I'm surprised Efka (Sardakk guy) is the one sort of "game-mastering" this... you'd think given how much Quinns talks about this game and even made a documentary on it he'd be the one!

I like how they're tripped up by all the things we are as well, like placing a token in the system when doing Construction secondary :D

Eat your heart out D'rek - the Hacan guy gets 6 PDS shots against anyone who enters Mecatol space :D

Yep. I think he's been involved since they started doing live games, somewhere around christmas.

But he's not even demanding TG to withhold fire! What a goof

I think our group might be especially lax with those. Probably very different when you're only 4 players, too.

Heh. With 4 players I would think a single SftT swap would almost certainly turn it into a 2vs2 game.

Blend hasn’t refreshed yet Tapper, so you won’t get thst TG until his turn.

Ah, forgot he acts after me (and Twelve, but that I did remember). Will modify to 2:2 with D'rek.

Hmm, they're not letting the Saar Floating Factory to carry infantry, only fighters.

Edit: Phew, they've just been corrected :D

Fuck me. Just got a call from my inside person. They're giving the job to the internal hire. Not a great surprise but I was hoping.

Edit: of course there’s always the possibility she’s wrong...

I'm really sorry to hear that if that is the case, Gnaw. In my field the vast majority of jobs that come up end up going to internal candidates (and were always going to go to internal candidates), which is - and I speak from experience - beyond frustrating. I feel your pain.
