Hmmm, so my neighbours are Tapper and Drek. Winnu on one side, Arborec on the other... And lots of empty space between the trees and I. That's good.


We need to come up with a name for the big line of planetless hexes. The void? The tear? The scar?

Anyways, you're welcome to use the alpha wormhole in it, or if not I might just plop a destroyer on it to get the neighbour relations. I'll be hanging onto Quann, obviously. Let me know if you need someone to use your PN to put a WH down before you get WH-Generator tech.

Fuck it let's go Muaat. I know I'm going to regret this choice even as I type this. Will probably wonder why I didn't go Xxcha all game long.


I think it's a good choice, actually. Supernova position is ace for it, and you want something strong to match the L1z1x to your north.

Might not be a good map/race picks for trading your war sun promissory note around, though. Arborec and Creuss aren't likely to be interested 'cause they can't make much use of war suns, Jol-Nar can get war suns pretty easily by themselves, and giving them to Winnu to plant on MR, or to L1z1x who can combo them with Harrow is reckless (wouldn't be surprised if Tatt's gets them anyway through inheritance systems).


Inheritance systems is one of the things I am looking forward to this game. So are we going to establish boundaries? I think Mellon/Zohbat is our conflicted system.


Yup, Mellon/Zohbat is geographically equidistant between you and me so it's not officially in either of our "slices".

At the moment, map's looking like I'll be spending more time south of the void. If I plop a destroyer on the Alpha wormhole, would that be okay with you? I'll want to be able to access the wormhole, and that'll make us neighbours for trading purposes. I've no real interest, at the moment, in the planets in your slice. I'd be happy if we could coexist peacefully :)

Yes, that'd be fine, and likewise. With our planet trails leading off in opposite directions it will be way too much of a hassle and expensive to try and wrestle any planets from you when they're 3-4 hexes away. I'd be better going through the wormholes myself at that point.

No.

I don't intend to trade away my racial the entire game. It is too silly.

Tapper - thoughts on Saudor?

My proposal would be Asteroid Field - DMZ. Saudor for you, Dal Bootha/Xxha + Starpoint/NA mine (I will likely build there). Wellon seems more your slicw than mine. I of course very much want MR but I have no interest in the B wormhole whatsoever.

Nom my ceasefire for your research agreement sound good to you?


Should I be worried? You pick next to me and choose Muatt then offer your ceasefire to the Universities who should never be left alone.

I just want the free tech. Getting hyper metabolism as Muaat would be awesome and as I didn't want to give out my racial I figured with Nom's history with the Muaat this would be his likely price anyway. Especially as the Jol-Nar


How do we agree to boundaries then? Our systems join at Rarron.

Ideally i'd have that system and leave Lodor alone for you,


Any more thoughts on this Twelve? Maybe with SFTT exchange between us. What are your thoughts, as the map is certainly pushing us into each other somewhat.

Sorry what? I haven't been paying attention to yhis game as it hasn't really started yet. I also want to hear back from Nom regarding his racial and see what objectives are revealed before I start to agree on borders just yet but I'm sure we can work something out.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.
