I'll keep ya in mind in case someone has to leave the game for whatever reason!

[D'rek]

Also, since we're thinking about Secret Objectives, I think we found out last game that

Diversify Negotiatons -- 1VP -- Status Phase -- Own at least 1 Promissory Note from every player, including yourself.

Is a bit too difficult+obvious for the 9-player game after all?

Oh hey, I hadn't noticed those custom secret objectives. I guess there's no need to duplicate the SO deck after all.
As for this SO, it feels too difficult. Maybe change to 'own 1 pn from 5 other players'?

Heh, I never really realized that we had been using a few custom SOs. Sneaky sneaky D'rek!

[Galactic Council]

In fact, with those customs we have 31 SOs. I think I'll just remove the Diversify Negotiations SO completely, it's one of the ones that I always get big groans from whatever player when they draw it.

[ToasTer86]

It does seems a bit hard to score

[D'rek]

It's a lot easier in, say, a 5-player game.

Sorry, I thought you knew I had added extra SOs in the first game. Now you have to ask yourself: if I made extra hexes, strategy cards, and secret objectives, what else did I expand for our first 9P game?!

Spoiler

Nothing

Spoiler

Probably

Well now, you also added another VP requirement!
Which begs the question, are we also playing to 11 this game?

[Galactic Council]

I think our best 9-player game was a 12 point game. Makes it a bit more challenging than 11 points, but doesn't make end game drag on like a 14 point game, so I'm thinking we'll just go with 12 points!

[D'rek]

Fine by me

[Morgoth]

Do we send our bans by pm, or just post them here?

Also, can we ban people? I am sick and tired of losing land battles to Khell and would prefer to see him fired into the sun.

[Tattersail_]

That Khell! He is devious

I see you pointing our new guys towards him Morgy.

So they should beware that both you and IH have the most wins between you. Sneaky sneaky.

[Galactic Council]

I am still waiting for Khell and IH to send me their map tile placements.

Once I have those, I'll put up a map then start the ban phase. I figure people may want to see what the map looks like before deciding what races they want to ban.

All votes will be sent to me via your Game PMs and will not be shared publicly by me (though if you want to share who you're voting to ban you're welcome to do so).

Can we withhold?

Sure, you're welcome to abstain if you wish, but then you'll have no control/say over which races get banned.

[Itwæs Nom]

I'll probably just be too lazy for that

If I don't send them in by the time others do just assume I'm abstaining

Sure - there's nothing stopping you from doing it now if you don't really care about seeing the map and want to vote, though!

[Imperial Historian]

Will do this over the weekend.

[Imperial Historian]

Erm, should I have 4 systems next to the homeworld in my slice? When some people have two seems a bit unfair?
