Alright, I've posted a placeholder for Tapper's status phase post so that we don't hold up the game any longer. I'll let yall know when I've updated it with whatever he wants to put in there!

[D'rek]

Good veto

[Imperial Historian]

Well swords to ploughshares certainly makes a lot more objectives scorable.

Unfortunately mainly benefits toaster I think as his analysis shows, letting him score a lot more objectives, and grabbing the victory first.

Other objective is a bit of a gamble but could be useful as the pile of action cards is mostly high quality

[ToasTer86]

Swords would most likely up the chance for me to score. The spend resource/spend trade goods.

Going from 12.5% to flip a scoreable objective to 37.5%.
Don't expect that one to go through.

Here's the stuff I sent to Blend:

Play CV | Diplomacy Rider | After an agenda is revealed: | You cannot vote on this agenda. Predict aloud an outcome of this agenda. If your prediction is correct, choose 1 system that contains a planet you control. Each other player places a command token from their reinforcements in that system.

Prediction: Swords to Plowshares ending in FOR.
Chosen planet is Lodd Eru

1) Score Objectives: none.
2) Reveal Public Objective
3) Draw Action Cards: Draw 2 action cards
4) Remove Command Tokens
5) Gain and Redistribute Tokens: Gain 3 CTs, 2/0/1
6) Ready Cards
7) Repair Units
8) Return Strategy Cards: play CE | Political Stability | When you would return your strategy card(s) during the status phase: | Do not return your strategy card(s). You do not choose strategy cards during the next strategy phase. Keep Leadership.

Command Pools: 2T | 4F | 2S
Goods: 0/2 C | 11 TG
Action Cards: 5 --> 7, then play Political Stability --> 6.
Promissory Notes: 4 L1Z1X, 1 XXCHA
Secret Objectives: 0 fulfilled | 2 unfulfilled

Planets:
+ 0.0.0 (5/0)
+ Dal Bootha (0/2)
+ Xehan (1/1)
+ Lodd Eru (3/0 R)
+ Queqen'n (1/2)
+ Rarron (0/3)
+ Tren'Lak (1/0)

Creuss were always my favourite faction, still is, but this game I've failed to utilize them properly I think. It's been surprisingly tricky to find opportunities while simultaneously not leaving myself too exposed. Partially I think that has to do with how willing people have been to plug every empty system with single ships (those SOs did not do me any favours), but it's also my fault for not being more willing to take risks. At the same time, I've been completely unable to get the tech card at any point, which has left me out of the top blue techs, which I need to truly wreak havoc. Losing the ability to play the tech secondary this turn also seriously fucked me.

The wormholes were pretty quiet this game. You not being able to utilise your PN and not reach your racial has hampered you a lot I think.

So we heard you like Riders

[Imperial Historian]

So many riders. Twelve(14), nom(6), tatts(2) I'm calling in your owed votes against swords to plowshares unless someone has an offer on where I should swing my votes.

Didn’t you already use it last agenda? But again, why do we not want to kill everyone’s infantry and make land grabs more likely at this juncture?

If you call in khells votes sure

[Khellendros]

Welp, well that PO puts paid to my ambitions. D’rek could probably claim it three times over. IH will probably be swimming in tokens too.

[ToasTer86]

Ok that is the one objective that would be do-able and actually quite easy for me.

Guess everyone will start bashing me next :->
