Catching a plane home shortly, think I need some time looking at the map before I make a move and since the map is to much for the internet here I won't be making a move until tomorrow, sorry to hold things up!

Gnaw. You sir failed to uphold your end of the deal. You were to veto the other law that gained Morgoth the extra action card. That is twice within 1 round you have broken your word. Would you care to explain?


Yeah, I fucked you twice this round. I’m sitting between two War Sun techs now and that changes the situation. I still have a shot at winning and Morgoth getting a couple extra action cards is more preferable to having that shard floating around.

Nothing that you agreed to changes the above situation. You still would have gotten the war sun tech by waiting until after you used Leadership and if anything you took more away from Morgoth by lowering his VP total by vetoing the shard. And by breaking your deals with me so easily what do you think Morgoth must be thinking. Probably that Gnaw's word isnt what I thought and he is actually focused on winning so he is probably ready to turn on me soon so I need to strike first. As there seems to be no good reason for you to break your word and seems to carry added negative consequences I have to think what could be the real reason he shafted me yet again. The only logical reason I can come up with is... Spite? If not please enlighten me because that is the only answer that makes any sense to me.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Twelve, you said you wanted to swap commodities gradually to avoid being pillaged, right? How many should I put on my turn?

Well as we aren't neighbors anymore and I wasn't sure when or if I was going to border you or Tatts I've gone and swapped 1 with Gnaw already and plan on doing my last two with him at the end of my next turn as I will be using both of my TGs so will fly under the Mentax.


What? When we talked about this before I was very clear that I'd be neighbouring you starting this turn and you acknowledged that... when did this change?

I forgot. I can exchange my current 2 TGs for your two commodities on your turn still if you want. And then I can do the next two during the status/agenda phase or your next turn if you have one.


I would appreciate that a lot, thanks!


Twelve, do you still want to do the last 2? Just making sure

Nah, I'm not particularly bothered. I am too stretched out, so there's little I could have done to prevent anyone from taking the shard from me. I very much doubt I could have used it for a victory. Not to mention that IH now will lose a point if he attacks me, whereas up until now he would have gained that point back through the shard.

She doesn't want peace. She's had multiple opportunities. We both cannot win at this stage so why not practice our battling skills.

Thanks! As for peace w/ Tatts, he just keeps on going for the full-on attack instead of giving me time to leave, and at the same time leaving planets completely empty. How can I not follow-up on that? I don't want to start establishing a game meta where we all just leave our planets empty and exposed and think it's justifiable to then be upset when someone takes advantage of that. If we do, it's just going to lead to a bunch of boring games where the fastest and most military races always win.

Besides, since Tatts is all buddy-buddy with IH it does (kinda) hurt IH to attack him. Maybe I'll even get that SFTT removed :p

It served as a purpose to draw you in. I wanted your flagship there but we'll see. We'll see.

Why do you keep leaving planets empty tatts? The extra planets and TGs you keep giving d'rek is really messing up my ability to plan!

As I said, I knew if they were empty that she'd move a force into them, I was hoping for the dread too tbh.

Hey now, Gnaw loves me like a brother... or a son? A father? I can’t remember how old he is.
