@ Tapper:

I don't think your CTs are correct (in a good way). You've stated it is now 1/4/2, but actually I think you have one extra token. You started last round with 1/4/1, and then gained 3CTs through Leadership secondary, all of which you placed in strategic, putting you at 1/4/4. BUT in that post you only put yourself at 1/4/3, and I think that's where your confusion arises. The map showed you ending the round with 2 tokens left in strategy.

I ended the previous round on 1/4/1.

I used QDN pre-round, and that's where the confusion comes from - I don't think you deducted that CT.

1 Strategic token for QDN pre-round --> 1/4/1 --> 1/4/0.

Gain 3 CT from Leadership, spent as:

1 Strategic token for Imperial Secondary.
1 Strategic token for Imperial Secondary.
1 Strategic token for Production Biomes.

Just to confirm that if a planet gets elected for the first agenda, ships in that system will be okay, so Nom won't lose all that army for example. It'd just be PDS, spacedocks and Infantry?

IH getting second pick in strategy should not be something we let happen. That means people voting against on the second agenda otherwise Nom gains the Speaker token, Gnaw gains a technology and IH gains second pick.

The votes breakdown is;

Morgoth 9 votes can only vote on second agenda
Twelve 12 votes
Tapper 12 votes
Myself 8 votes can only vote first agenda
IH 7 votes
Nom 8 votes can only vote first agenda
D'rek 14 votes
Blend 3 votes


Twelve will be wanting to destroy units on Gwynan, otherwise major threat from Nom in taking Mec Rex.

Blend likes the idea of Quann being selected first agenda, (if he gets to keep the planet)

Morgoth wants to vote on the second agenda so will probably want to vote against to increase the 2 VP Objectives

IH is win win on the second agenda because he'll get either good strategy pick or more VP opportunities, he's got no chance at the tech PO

Nom will want to avoid getting Gwynan selected, and if Quann helps keep the VP from Blend he'll vote that way.

D'rek has nothing to lose on the first agenda, but she should be voting against on second agenda otherwise risk getting near last pick in strategy

Tapper also would want a better strategy selection.



So D'rek and Tapper have 26 votes to push the against
IH and Morgoth have 16 votes to push FOR for arguments sake.

Blend and Nom 11 votes for Quann

12 votes for Gwynan from Twelve

this about right?

Damn Gnaw, Tapper and D'rek can score that one and I can't. :apt2:

My votes could be bought if anyone really wanted them.

I actually have 5 votes. I have thrown 1 at Quann and the rest AGAINST on the second agenda.

Tatts, Nom hasn't stated if he is even looking at Rex. Though I'm very curious as to what his intentions are for Rex. If he grabs Imperial and isn't willing to swap it to me he still won't get it as I'll have earlier initiative so can reinforce Rex by building troops and transit diodes even more. That's 12 more infantry before he gets to act. I would be willing to part with it If I can get 1 VP from Rex though. Game isn't going to make it another round I'm sure and I dropped way down the points ladder again.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You’re forgetting how much he can build by just moving into MR. Logistics would be enough to wipe you out. I’m glad he gets to use the Arborec like I couldnt.

That's why you probably want to vote Gwynan. What are my votes worth?

You're Sol right? I'd take your racial for it.

Well I'm hoping he would be more willing to help me with Morgoth than try and take Rex off of me. But I'm also hoping to convince Morgoth to grab Logistics and use all his scary Dreads to move towards IH's home world so he doesn't win.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

You have 3?

You no longer control Dal Bootha if that’s what you’re thinking of.
