IH went Zohbat Mellon Drek


Total brainfart. I even put the CT on the right system... and then moved the units the wrong way :doh:

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

It looks very not tempting to play warfare early I have to say. It would give a substantial advantage to those of you with only one expansion option this round.

I'm already resigned to not use warfare so do you man.

IH okay your racial for you to invade Sakalug to use the yellow tech sounds okay but what's to say you don't attack my home system or move out when you have exhausted it? What happens to the other planet in the system?


Basically I'm offering you a deal where you let me take the yellow planet and then I move out because I have agreed to do so, and I give you my racial as a payment. Because I always keep my agreements in this game, and if I don't keep the deal you could hang on to my racial for the rest of the game and deny me the ability to trade it for resources .

Versus a situation where I don't give you anything and take the planets anyway, and most likely do end up trying to take your homeworld, or at least get tied up in a prolonged conflict.

I'm not really inclined to cede more to you than I already have your race has an economic and scoring advantage over mine (you gain 5 additional resources from trade and with a free CT, and you are better positioned to get the good techs for vps) , my advantage is that my ships are better than yours and I'm very good at invading planets.

If you leave lazar sakulag empty (you should get gravity drive which will let you take plenty of better systems) I will move in with minimum force, take both planets and leave on the following turn after using the yellow skip and agree not to attack your homeworld that turn since you are worried about it. I'll give you my racial for the small opportunity cost (as you most likely will have taken two better planets).

Sftt I'd be willing to swap once we've done this exchange.


I agree to all this. I'll leave them blank. Similarly when you move out you can take one of Abyz Fria.

I'll also wash your commodities for you.

In return would you like speaker token for 1tg and leave me my choice of strategy?

Sorry not interested in speaker in a 5 player game I'm sure to get a decent strategy card. The rest sounds good.

I don't think his Carrier can get to Mec Rex, even with Gravity Drive it should only be able to move 2 hexes, no?

Yes, I know, but that still only gets him next to MR - he'd need 3 movement to get to MR, not to mention that he doesn't have enough Influence to take MR anyway.
