sorry tatts, but as delays go you're the player furthest distant from me, and as I've already made my intentions known better to keep the others less annoyed at me.


You have? I mean, uh, yes, I know exactly what you intend to do, you...nefarious...fiend you!

I really feel like the game is dying down again. Lets keep it going and really focus on it so we can all get interested and hyped again.

I agree but this sudden plea to get this over with from the Naalu? Could it be possible you think you have the win?


He's likely going into next round with 9 points and a SO in hand, so if it's a PO he can score he's odds on to win. If D'rek manages a 4 pt round though with imperial (plausible but unlikely) she might be the one to beat

If we hadn't exhausted all our planets, it'd be feasible depending on what secret objective I'm holding. With all planets exhausted though, no way in heck I'll be able to score any POs unfortunately. Next round though, I perhaps have a shot.

Dang, really was looking forward to an epic battle. What a shame

Well, as you said, you had a 93% chance of winning. That is
a) more of a massacre than epic;
B) not something I willingly commit to without having an alternative.

But what I really don't understand is why (given my flagship) you brought such an abundance of fighters instead of infantry - at the least that probably would have netted you the planet.

I was not going to take your planet off you. I calculated that if I had done something different and had you intended to attack me with either fleet on Tau Bootis or A/F that you'd win both battles. However by pulling my forces together a bit then at least i'll have an effective army going forward. Looks like other people are seeing the victory line so I guess it doesn't really matter.

I would not help Creuss though as they do have a shot at winning.


You just hope I don't have an unexpected action card. (I don't)

I can' only score 2 points if I waste all my TG's , doubting if I do that or just score the 5TG one.

The reason I am pressing is that I want to finish and start a new one, preferably with less player. The time in between turns, and the complete powerlessness I have into stopping any one this game (some homesystem are 9 tiles away), and the Politics cartel are burning me out.

I'll have no qualms in future handing out nasty action cards. This is ridiculous.

You have access to a wormhole, the wormhole PN and a friendly creuss neighbour. Practically everyone's home system can be placed at risk if not directly by you by your neighbour.
