Something really stupid. But how come the forum on my mobile all of a sudden got switched to like a minimal version.

Instead of vblack is it blue and I can't seem to find the setting to set this right

It is preventing me of doing my updates sooner

At the bottom you should see an option to switch to ‘full version’. If you click on that then it will give you the desktop version of the site. From there you can switch to other versions (at the bottom) or fiddle with your settings (click in the top right where your username is displayed).

@twelve:

Give me your votes for Minister of Law and I won’t vote for MR/Nestphar.

So for agenda phase there's usually a round of Ancient Burial Sites, followed by Veto/Quash, followed by riders. Nekro's prediction is in the 'rider' window. Are we doing all of these effects at the same time? It could be awkward if someone plays a rider and then XXcha decides to Quash, negating the rider - which is not possible normally.


We have tried it a couple of different ways and having people play agenda-affecting abilities/action cards during status phase seemed to be the one that worked best.

Yes, it means that the Xxcha get a chance to see if some others will play riders/other abilities before deciding whether or not to use their Quash ability, but to do it the traditional way would make the agenda phase take way too long due to the time zone issues.

If the Xxcha decide to Quash an agenda, each player who has already done their status phase will be given the opportunity to play an ability/action card on the newly revealed agenda before we finish the status phase.

Both agendas are a "elect player" / "elect planet". Basically means my ability is impossible to succeed.


Isn't Mec Rex a cert in terms of hampering the Arborec?

Any chance anyone have any other targets other than voting Rex for the Disarmament agenda?

You also have one of the richest set of planets, an extremely strong race and the ability to research neural motivators the same as any other race.

I think it's better in my hands, as the yin are one of the weaker races.

@Twelve, I offer the following: I will use my Galactic Threat ability on the planet of your choice, in exchange for either {a} 2 TG (whenever you next get them), or {b} you pick the POLITICS strategy card next round and make me Speaker (you're 5th pick, so it's a somewhat probable choice anyways). The galaxy will probably still pick one of your planets to disarm, but you'll likely be able to influence them away from a particular planet to the other to keep your plans as intact as you can.

As I'm the most likely choice anyway and I'd rather not lose any infantry I'm going to first try and garner support to another players planet. Though as I expect to not have much luck in this department I'm sure we can work something out.

The green tech path is the most difficult and pointless for me. It is extremely unlikely that I will ever go down the researching NM route...unlike yourself - WHO ALREADY HAS NEURAL MOTIVATOR.

And don't give me that 'weaker race' sob story - a race is as good as the player behind it, and you've won two of our games my friend :p

Oh and @twelve I have 6 votes to call in, I believe the action card policy falls under our agreement, so will likely be calling votes in for that

If you convert a commodity for me I'll vote 1 vote your way.


Sure, will you accept one invisible commodity for yours? I know my current total says zero, but I swear, it's just invisible!

I wouldn't mind having this on my own home system (0.0.0), as that's 4tgs in the pocket and those infantry are rebuilt soon enough.

However, 4 arborec infantry on Mecatol is essentially a space dock, and while I applaud you on your speed to get there and fortify, it poses a threat to the galaxy if you get another round or 2 to double or quintuple those numbers.

The last game I've played with an Arborec on Mecatol, they ended up with 34 infantry on it! All because I was too trusting and gave them a chance to leave, which they used instead to reinforce. Now we get a unique opportunity to nip the plants in the bud, if you will, and while some players are already trying get paid by you to maybe prevent this outcome... I wouldn't count on it. You're already leading points-wise quite a bit, support swapped on one side and Nekro stating their intentions are not to do anything about you in the immediate future.

For my part I only have 4 paltry votes, but I will give them to anyone (for Minister of Policy) who will vote 3 or more on Mecatol for Disarmament. Since I'm fairly low initiative, I'll also reveal I plan to place a Trade Rider on Mecatol, and will share the profits with whoever ends up putting the most votes on Mecatol too.

You have 6 TG's, so 1 of my commodities, for 1 of your TG's. If you are nice enough to do that then i'll send a vote your way.

The Nekro *don't* have the ability to research Neural Motivators like the other races, so it should really go to me!

As you can see, the votes are already being split towards other targets and the minister of law agenda, so it does help. It seems you're already going to be giving 6 votes to IH, so I would need at least your remainng 8 votes and another 3 from others to overcome IH, should he put all his votes on the action card agenda.

And again I would like to remind everyone that IH already has Neural Motivator and so would get 3 action cards per phase.

And as D'rek pointed out I should also clarify that the other planet besides Rex not being one of my planets.

IH are you wanting to cash in my votes? This is kind of an important vote for me so I would like to push it to next agenda phase if that is okay. Also what are your thoughts on the Disarmament agenda?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.
