Just wanted to have a conversation before I vote. I'm leaning on voting so you can gain the speaker token but want to know what your plans are with Rex this round and if we you have no plans towards it if you would be willing to help keep Morgoth from gaining the planets necessary to score the stage II public objective and win.

I have 8 points.

IH can score the token objective this round, he doesn't have to do anything. Another 1 VP objective could help him win as they are easier to complete. If he has an achievable SO he could win this round by doing literally nothing. I'm just going to vote, no one has said anything that sways me to vote anywhere particular.

Nom are you wanting my votes anywhere in particular other than Gwynan?

Yeah I'm not sure, guess I can stay off Rex if it means my rider will succeed and I can compensate the VP somewhere else

If Morgoth seems to be in imminent danger of winning I am willing to help impeding him

As far as the votes go, for some reason Quann seems to be the only other planet that's being talked about so why not vote Quann whoever wants to

So I'm leaning towards voting for and as it seems that Nom and I have an agreement regarding Rex we need to figure out what to do about imperial. If the new PO is one that IH can score he as the 3rd to pick can grab imperial score it and then score lead from the front during the agenda phase. Morgoth I only attacked and took those planets to slow you down. I know you can easily push me off of them but I would like a deal where you let me leave back to Rex and I'd even be willing to give up my ceasefire to you for it. Because we still need to work together to stop IH and that will require either you or Nom to grab Imperial. I of course would like it and would be willing to give you my racial and pick the strategy card you want so you are only picking 1 slot later. It's probably too much to ask for you to actually move your fleet closer to IH and see about taking his homeworld but there is probably something we can work out.

You do you. I reckon most people have their votes in now. No point talking strategy pick until after agenda phase as you don't know what way it'll turn out. Similarly if you think Morgoth will leave you alone you need to be committed. There's no way you go for that level of punishment and not want to retaliate. As to Nom, his was cryptic. "If he can score VP's elsewhere)" well there's not many more places he can go with that giant fleet that has been edging closer to Rex each round. So you just do you and we'll see were things fall.

Edit; you lost securing my votes for Gwynan advocating for the speaker change. Now I don't care whether Nom moves in on you.

So Nom I have voted for Quann, that means Gwynan should be safe.

[twelve]

I'm not advocating so much for a speaker change though that likely will benefit me in some way but for the result that gives the best odds of keeping IH from winning this round. I think everyone else needs that even Morgoth. As Morgoth is likely the only one that has the firepower to take on IH's home world fleet with D'reks help I think we need to try and work something out regardless of what I did last round.

[D'rek]

Invalidating my strategy pick last round by moving the speaker token will make me less cooperative with any such plans to take out IH's homeworld

If I think you AND Morgoth will work together to take out IH's homeworld would be the only senario where it woukd make sense to vote against otherwise let's just make IH winner now and call the game.

Cool. Then don't vote for Nom taking the speaker token.

[Galactic Council]

Agendas have been resolved. Unfortunately I don’t have my computer to hand so can’t confirm what the additional objective is till tomorrow, but I think it is the rather difficult Form Galactic Brain Trust.

Tatts, could you let me know where you want your new Dread?

No one will be able to score that easily. You'll be fine scoring the 2 tech in each colour bracket.

[Imperial Historian]

Goddammit, the chances that the two objectives drawn are ones I can't score was about 1 in 5!

[Galactic Council]

I've added the additional objective to the first post of the game thread - confirmed as Form Galactic Brain Trust (control five tech specialty planets).

[D'rek]

Ohhh I thought galactic brain trust was 15 influence. Excellent.
