Hmmm. That would certainly remove any chance of me scoring the tech planets objective, and add some risk to fulfilling one of my SOs but not too bad. And lose 2 votes plus 2 influence next round. Realistically, I won't be getting it back as the game won't go past next round, and there's no point spending a CT just to get a 2-influence planet back that I won't even use before the game ends. So with all that in mind... I'll do it, but I'm going to ask for a lot back

I'll let you have it in exchange for your ceasefire + Gnaw's ceasefire + Military Support. No retaliation, no misgivings, and you don't have to retreat back to Jord. You can even bring 1 dreadnought to bombard the infantry on Nevant. I withhold PDS when you take it, ofc.


Obviously I cannot give you all 3 in one go, as there's a rule to it.

I assume the round will end this round so I am thinking I just score one more PO. I'll give you all 3. Starting with Gnaw's ceasefire. Then Military Support as you'd be able to do that on my next turn. Then my ceasefire during Agenda phase.

Deal?

Thank you.

Also, are we swapping commodities? If so, okay if we wait until the end of the round to do it, since we're doing multiple transactions and I don't want to get pillaged by IH each time?

Tapper has my Trade PN. I get it back when I use the trade secondary but I won't have any to swap.

Ah, ok, no worries.

Tapper/Gnaw, let me know if you'd like to trade.

Although come to think of it, we should probably avoid giving Tapper any more TG since we'd be feeding him for the TG and influence objectives, huh

Aw c'mon I said 1 dread! :thumbsup:

Also, shouldn't you wait to let Blend do the secondary like Khell asked?

I just copy pasted before going home. I had to be able to with stand your PDS fire, you can have my ceasefire on my next turn for reassurance and then the Military Support, unless you want them in a particular order.

Well shit.

Instead of you guys letting me build up with logistics and going all in to prevent IH from winning this round, you've actively worked to sabotage my ability to hold out and forced me to pass. Here we are with IH in all likelyhood winning this round while you guys fap about negotiating for all sorts of nonsense with twelve.

I can't pretend to say I understand your motivations, but I at least can blame myself from stretching myself too thin and leaving an opening for Gnaw and D'rek to attack me.

Gnaw, I will obviously hate you to the end of my days, but I would have done the same I expect.


Well, there’s a poetic justice: I left the provisional with a specific assimilation order which did not take into account there might be your destroyer in the fight. So I might still be short that blue tech.

Ya, you really should have taken the blue first. Now you might not get any from either planet. Always tricky with bombardment since if you bombard too much there's no battle... but do you risk 1 infantry losing the fight? Hmmmmm

And it’s all your fault for not retreating the destroyer to Abyz/Fria and negating my action period.

Alrighty. I'm not that worried or anything. But sure, let's do the ceasefires first, no harm in that. So just Military Support left now. I'm almost certainly going to pass next, so if you also pass and don't take a turn we'll do it in the agenda phase.

I did say in both threads that the Thibah fight hadn’t finished being resolved.
