I assume you are waiting for the secret objective selections before revealing the first 2 public objectives. Right?

[Galactic Council]

Alright, first two public objectives are revealed and game is officially started! I've posted IH's strategy choice. Please go ahead and post your strategy phase choices in the game thread, I'll edit your posts to add the player banner and (if you don't do it yourself) the first detailed post for yall!

Old faithful public objectives, think we have started with these ones before!

Realistically there arent a whole lot of POs, so we will likely always see repeats. Pretty sure at this point every 1 point PO has been in at least one game, and only loke 1 or 2 of the 2 pointers have never come up.

[Imperial Historian]

Thanks Blend, looking forward to this one. Going to be interesting trying one of the 'fighty' races!

It'll be interesting to see if anyone manages to score either of those in round 1.

Also to start the preliminary negotiations, Gnaw/Morgoth my neighbours of old, either of you interested in a trade relationship? Not sure if we will be able to trade this turn, but I'd be interested in an exchange of goods if it became a possibility.

Morgoth, where do we stand on Quann? I consider it more in my sphere of influence than yours, I'd like to park some forces there to discourage Twelve's Saar ball deciding to come visit through the wormhole, which I think is beneficial to you as well. I'd be willing to agree to a deal, perhaps involving sftt around establishing a border at Quann.

Naalu are not one of the vaunted 2c4i races

The Saar didn't pick warfare?!

I'm shocked.

It was a tough choice and I'm probably going to regret not taking it but we will see.

I was 100% convinced that you would take Warfare.

I wanted to score lead from the front so I grabbed the strategy card that allows me to do that and get it out of the way as soon as possible.

Yeah, I figured after seeing your selection, seems sensible.

[D'rek]

Khell, I propose we designate the two empty hexes and asteroid field as a complete DMZ b/w us, which neither of us ever send anything into or through. We might link up Tier 1 and be able to trade this round, though. Sound good?

[Imperial Historian]

What's the price for a free refresh D'rek?

The only thing I can think of that you might want from me is an early play of Technology? That worth a refresh?
