You'll hold to your word, or maybe you won't.

Drek - you already activated Corneeq/Resculon this round, so you can't move anything out from that hex.

IH if you do take out my cruiser I would also take 2 TGs as a sufficient apology and won't harbor any ill will as that will allow me to research this round.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Gnaw said beta wormhole, but I don't think that was possible. Think he meant alpha wormhole, which means IH's path is still clear.

Khell, re wellon I can offer the assurance that I won't interfere with your other ships, I will move in late in the round allowing you to use it's resources, and I will move out early next round and not towards your territory. Saves you from needing to waste resources defending it.


This was the last offer I saw from you, IH. Nothing about your TA (which at 2TG, is not the most tempting anyway :p ). I知 still happy to thrash out a deal though. D池ek will move out on her first turn next round, as per our deal.

Sure I'll take it for 1 tg but I don't think we neighbor, if IH won't pay for his transgressions then maybe he will be willing to stall so I can move my cruiser across to your two planets next to Rex for trade as long as you don't have any issues with this move and will also blow my ship up after I move.

Indeed we don't neighbour. Also 1 tg is a pretty low bid (equal to the cost, but forgetting the convenience, one might say)

If you are out of ST then it costs you nothing it's all profit for you. I have no issue with holding it until you are out of CT to use it. Do you have any issues, (IF IH allows me to that is) move my cruiser to your empty system or are you planning on moving ships into there this round?

Sorry busy day, trying to catch up... Did d'rek change her move?

@khell what do you want for wellon... Though I'm not sure a negotiation has much value until d'rek moves out. Me not taking new albion gives you your extremely annoying racial tech. Since you don't actually control wellon you aren't losing any resources by ceding it to me and would have to spend a CT to take it back anyway. I can offer assurances i won't bother any of your other planets for a number of turns? 2? which leaves you free to pursue what you want without my interference.

@twelve, I could stall but it would cost me a useful action card. I don't particularly want conflict with you, but I'm also aware that you are the saar whose entire deal is rushing to victory, and from how you are playing you know that. Im also aware that I'm the best roadblock to that. So a minor skirmish now to slow you down with minimal resources invested isn't a bad thing for me. So how about your trade agreement, i don't take starpoint, and we both agree to leave each other alone for 2 turns after this and i let you move your cruiser and score a VP. You gain a vp, and don't lose ~6 resources and I gain 3. You also gain quite a lot of security for your undefended planets.

Do you mean rounds rather than turns, because rounds would be a heck of a lot more reassuring than turns :p If so then I can agree to that. D池ek will move out first turn as I mentioned. When you want to move in next round is up to you I suppose.

What I wanted in return originally was to borrow one of your tech planets at some point in the future, but I知 over that now. I値l settle for some peace and quiet for a couple of rounds, no invasion of New Albion, you moving in with minimal forces (one ship, one Infantry, that kind of thing), and leaving quickly with all units back the way you came next round.

So i don't take new albion, you hold d'rek to your deal to withdraw and i take wellon with minimal force then withdraw the following round. In return we both leave each each others planets and ships alone for 2 rounds? Aside from wellon.

IH,

I can agree to play nice and agree to every thing you listed minus me paying you anything. But D'rek has to agree not to blow up my cruiser when I relocate it. As I said I was wanting you to pay me not to take offense. You stalling would be payment enough. I have a feeling I'm also your biggest roadblock to you winning as well and you would want my wandering to be away from your area.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.
