I’d be fine with that.

D'rek looks like the Mentak arent that interested in letting you get Starpoint/ New Albian this round.

And here I was trying to have a pleasant game focused primarily on economics, trade, and negotiation, but Nom decides to take the most aggressive anti-Hacan option possible and literally waste command tokens in the first round trying to block me, and won't even talk to me... I'd like to be upset, but I'm just disappointed.

[Imperial Historian]

Fight!!

Bold moves

Saar mercenaries are available if required.

It's going to be a much more aggressive game I think!

With ambush this is probably a lot closer fight. Not sure if I would have pushed it

[Imperial Historian]

Roughly 70/30 in d'reks favour I think, but will be pretty swingy, and d'rek might have some action cards.

[Imperial Historian]

It's going to be tough to come back for whoever loses this one.

Especially if it goes according to the odds and Nom loses both cruisers. Since he exhausted his home planet on the Tech secondary and moved these cruisers instead of playing Trade, he now can't use the Warfare secondary to build anything, either, so Tar'mann is the only planet he's gaining this round. I seriously don't understand at all why he is being so gung-ho about impeding me, to the point of even shooting himself in the foot this much. Like, at least send your carrier and infantry to take Dal Bootha/Xxehan and have 2 planets with more res/inf for next round than just Tar'mann!

I have been surprised by his play, especially leaving himself so open for morgoth to sweep in behind, and not positioning himself to get another build.

I'm imagining he's got a good action card or is just planning to see how ambush goes then retreat if he's not in a good position or push for the win.

His slice isn't great and he's clearly not going to come out well vs muaat so could be because of that?

Nom usually plays pretty smart so there is probably something I'm missing.

He doesn't have any action cards. I have 2. What is he going to do if I have an intercept to cancel his retreat, beg for a sabotage in the first round of the game?

There's probably something I'm missing, too, I guess.

Well we all know that D'rek has already sold her soul to the die gods so this should be a done deal for her. I'm still smarting about last games miracle she pulled off.

And no Khell in this game to suicidally "even it out" for the fun of it
