@ Nom: You didn't say where you wanted your 1 infantry you get in the status phase.

Well looks like trade won't make it to me now.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

D'rek, if you are looking for compensation for your votes I would be willing to pay 1 TG to you for each extra action card I receive. This could net you 3-4 trade goods and allows me to spread the cost over multiple rounds.
The problem with this is that if IH persists in his aggression I won't be able to keep the anti-Pillage PN, and then every time you pay me 1 TG it just gets pillaged and I get nothing.

Ah. Well then I just can't pay for your votes. Im too far behind on tech and military to give up my trade pn.

I'm open to other ideas. Like, say, you promise to block the alpha wormhole on turn 1.

That might be something I can do But IH will likely have lower initiative than me and it might be a moot point.

I'd also be willing to give my trade pn for votes if you throw in your racial pn too and research dreads II.

Fine fine fine, I guess it's all moot.
Tapper, put your votes on me, please.
Nom, I'm not offering anything but I recommend you put your votes on me for the first agenda as well so that Gnaw doesn't get another tech, seeing as how you two will be neighbours very soon. I'm going to put a small number of votes on you for the second agenda, in turn.
Blend, Twelve, you guys do what you like, but I'm your best shot at not having Minister Morgoth + Gnaw getting another tech.

I got mallice and a SO VP, and have made you divert attention from tatts preventing his elimination and me losing his sftt VP. Bereg lirta is a potential nice bonus, and if you attack me regaining my racial gets me another potential source of income which is always useful, as you've demonstrated immunity to pillaging is very beneficial. I'm not intent on a campaign of aggression and will quite happily be bought off however

Yeah, but see *I* needed Mallice for the SO VP too! If you'd said you needed it for an SO we could've worked out taking turns on it... though I guess that didn't work out so well for Blend and Gnaw...
I doubt I would ever actually completely eliminate Tatts, way too many infantry, it would take like 4 rounds of moving the dreadnoughts around for bombardment on every planet. It's really just clearing the airspace more than anything, and even that sounds like I have/had some sort of actual plan, which is not the case.

Alright, so Morgoth and IH are voting on Morgoth for the policy agenda - that's 24 votes.
Tatts has offered his votes to Morgoth for 1 TG, that'd be another 5 votes bringing Morgoth up to 29 votes.
Drek, Tapper, Twelve are voting for Twelve - that's 36 votes.
Which leaves me and Nom?

My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Wait there is more than one SO involving mallice?
You were doing a pretty good job vs tatts to be fair.
Well I'm open to creative solutions, you have a lot of trade goods, and as a good pirate I'm always open to bribery
