Bunker has been played

Ah, I thought "Bunker" was your action.
Do you want me to delete my action, or will you edit your turn in the post in which you play Bunker?

I do not think it works that way ? but I am not sure.

ALso my action might change after the result of this battle.

If someone could sabotage Bunker, that would be great!

ermagerd, facepalm at Tapper. What is in it for you ?

[ToasTer86]

D'rek just won, no one can stop her with Neuroglaive.

[ToasTer86]

this whole "I want my points to go up as far as I can is just non sense"

It is rather : "I want to see D'rek win"

I could just be wanting to pad my score before game's end. Or I could be trying to buy time for everyone to focus on people other than you, trying to drag another round out of it.
It's immaterial, really, but I am not being a bastard towards you for being a-bastard-towards-you's sake.

Yeah you're just the immeadiatist threat Toast

Don't forget this game's all about politics and the endgame politics are pretty much all about the... most immediate threat

If D'rek wins because she got Imperial which lets everyone else maximise their points before she can win than that's all part of the politics, if she looses because she's the last pick and someone *looks significantly at IH* wins before her that's well all the same

And I mean if you go into the last round as the one with obviously best shot at winning then it is to be expected people are gonna flock on you, and if you have little politics set in place to help you against them that's entirely your fault, and if you still manage to pull it off against everyone else just by sheer force then all the props to you but you can see yourself what an ordeal you set upon yourself, and you acting all hurt is also just part of the politics, whether intended or not, and whether you choose to take it out of the context of the game, well, the line dividing the game and the virtual and the real never was as clear and solid as it might've seemed to some

Stop looking significantly at me nom! It's scary. Look at twelve, he has more points than me! Look how quiet he's being. Is that not the quiet of someone about to win?

Also yes politics of winning is all about managing that end game threat. Winning when you are the points leader going into that final round is hard and mitigating that threat is very difficult. I've had a win whilst everyone is beating on you, and I've had a win where no-one expected it, the first was much easier!

[twelve]

Damn it D'rek. You still didnt clear the wormhole and now it's going to cost me a ct to allow me to use it.

Well if someone would just fucking use the creuss wormhole pn then someone might actually be able to reach her homeworld to stop her. Even with the tech. Hmmm wonder who that might be?

She didn't bolster her HW with Logistics, so now would be the time to strike if a wormhole was placed. Otherwise next turn she could buff it up.

Toaster it's on you to do that.

Indeed. You said you thought you would end up needing it to "give us another round", but at this point we seem to be doing the best possible options against Toaster without you and the other possibilities are you, me, and IH. And you hardly need the wormhole to get to IH

Well if d'rek makes any more moves (and assuming no one flips her commodities) she can't score the 2vp objective, so twelve anything we can do to help? I can't figure out how the wormhole helps you beat d'rek but happy to help if I can.

I'm thinking more of Morgoth using it more than me. If Tatts clears the planet we agreed on I could slip in to take so it can prevent refreshes of CTs from Diplomacy and leadership.

[D'rek]

If Tatts keeps acting as selfish as he has so far, he's got no reason to do anything against me and lose his SfTT.

[Tattersail_]

Would using an action card on Drek lose me my SFFT, I dont think so
