Whoa now, so much scheming, and while I love it, I can hardly take Mecatol next round even if my path were free, on account of not having enough movement to bring everything required there. When I said an opportunity will present itself I was talking about an agenda that's coming up that has the potential to severely weaken Arborec's position on Mecatol. So let's finish this round, see how agenda phase goes, and re-evaluate next round!

Aaah I am in, I forgot I left that agenda there. You left it there as well.

Good job, I am all in !!

That one isn't in the reference thread. If I get hit with that agenda in back to back games that is some serious shit luck. Compensated Disarmament would also be bad for me as well. At least now I know not to put my status phase infantry on Rex like I was planning on doing.

It is, just search for IX when on the page. It's one of the three results.

How does ixthian artifact interact with neckro? Presumably they get nothing?

Well, the text on the Nekro ability is as follows:

Quote

Propagation: You cannot research technology. When you would research a technology, gain 3 command tokens instead.

and Ixthian Artifact reads:

Quote

IXTHIAN ARTIFACT (DIRECTIVE)
FOR: The speaker rolls a die. 1-5: Destroy all units on Mecatol Rex & 3 units in each
system adjacent to Mecatol Rex. 6-10: Each player researches 2 technologies.
AGAINST: Nothing happens.

So I would say that the Nekro, on a roll of 6-10, would gain 6 command tokens.

[D'rek]

Yes, I'd interpret it the same way.

Also, I'll bet the actual literal agenda card says "in the Mecatol Rex system" or something like that, rather than "on Mecatol Rex", being clear that it isn't just the units "on" MR but also in space around it that are destroyed.

[Imperial Historian]

Sorry thought my move had posted!

[Imperial Historian]

Realised I'd mixed up destroyer and cruiser in my move and build actions, switched it to the right way round.

[Imperial Historian]

Artifact is pretty great for the nekro then! Extra tech to steal and 6 ct is mega.

How does neckro ability interact with yin? I interpret it as if I voluntarily destroy one of my ships to do damage neckro doesn't get tech l, but I'm not sure.

Tatts fyi i think one of your fighters in evera will self destruct due to lack of capacity with that move if you are unaware

I am aware yes. I'll edit in to the post.

Glad to see everyone waited for me. I'll go ahead and post my move. Then D'rek will be up.

[twelve]

Sorry. Jazz is up next.

I am sorry, my mistake. I thought I was up. Because Sardakk Norr had the logistics cards which I thought had 9 as speed.

Sorry again...........................

I will have to revise the map tonight, then, because I just assumed you meant to move the destroyer you already had on the map on Vefut II rather than a cruiser from your home system. Will update tonight!

How come the first fight in every game is Tatts attacking me? jk

We laid out a border but you ignored that to score the system I wanted. We had good back and forth and I fully intended to swap PN's with you. I know you can be a formidable opponent. I'm prepared to leave it at Tau Bootis though, and send you destroyers every now and then. I'll be getting my upgraded dreads soon enough which might make your mouth water. I guess swapping Ceasefire's now would be good if we connect. It just depends on what you want to do. I cannot think you are going to ignore Twelve the entire game, IH has already given him peace of mind with the SFTT, and you gave him a path to MR when you could have blocked it.
