I think this is first game I've occupied MR. I've not exhausted it and I don't plan on taking Imperial as that will paint a target on my back.

Twelve you had 2 VPs and took Imperial and if I didn't do what I did youd have 4 or 5 now.

I'm still on less VP than you.

Blend are you set on needing your racial next round? I'll vote you for that strategy law.

Taking Rex from me made sense as a game move and is a forgivable offense. Invading my slice with the full intention of trying to keep it the rest of the game not so much. Now that you scored your Secret Objective GTFO!! And the fact I'm leading in points still is mind blowing to me. Since I havent been able to score points for 2 rounds. Everyone else should be at least at 2 points by now at minimum.

I would be willing to give you my racial in exchange for your votes on me for the Arbiter agenda.

Done.

[twelve]

Blend my 4 votes are enough to get you the arbiter vote. I'll take your trade agreement for it

I do plan to move out, it just depends where. I don't see you taking those planets off me but you may make a dent in my fleet.

Any way you'll let me keep them and you move elsewhere?

Sorry, don't need your votes if I've got Tatts', and Tatts' are cheaper.

If Morgoth agrees to my suggestion from earlier today then I have no need for yours or IH's votes for either agenda and you guys can't make any changes.

[Blend]

So I just want to confirm with Morgoth whether he agrees to vote for me for the Arbiter Agenda in exchange for my votes on AGAINST for the Fleet Pool agenda.

Once Morgoth confirms that, I will post my trade of my racial to Tatts in the game thread then submit my votes to Drek.

Anyone who wants to overtake Tatts in the arbiter vote I'll take 1 Tg just to vote your way or your trade agreement pn only if you win the election.

I'm pretty sure Morgoth doesn't want to hand you such a powerful benefit Blend for such a minor thing, it's not even close to equivalent value.

Actually, just realized it really doesn't make a difference.

If Tatts and I both put all our votes on me for the Arbiter agenda, the three remaining players can't beat us even if they all vote the same way.

So I'm going to go ahead and post my trade to Tatts and submit my votes.

Morgoth - you can go ahead and do whatever floats your boat!

[Tattersail_]

Twelve stop panicking. A) I've got good action cards
2) I'm moving out of BL possibly so you wont have to fight c) I'm not taking Imperial d) I'm not planning on diplomacy although that's be funny e) there's more but I'll stop. Chill out

With both Blend and Tatts combining votes that's not happening now unless you can get Morgoth to contribute. And I haven't done the math so that might not matter either. So If getting Morgoth involved doesnt work and with the new public objective revealed I'm now looking into taking Tech. I have a shot at scoring an objective if I can pay off my debt without giving you a trade good. If I take tech and give you my racial and you washing my last commodity would that be sufficient to pay off my obligation to you?

I mean, it's a moot point, really, because Tatts and I have enough votes to outvote the rest of you.

But Morgoth DID express interest in helping me out this morning, so I wouldn't make any assumptions.

Also, win the game? I'm currently tied or last place. Things will have to go spectacularly right for me and spectacularly wrong for the rest of you for me to win this game. It's certainly doable, but I'm not in as good a position right now as you seem to be implying.

No chance at all. I've already told you I'm throwing everything at you. The math shows I gave a commanding chance of wiping out your fleet. It will take another round to clear your infantry but if I'm forced to do that I will get to enjoy the rest if the game hunting down your fleets and planets. I need those planets for objectives you dont anymore so do us both a favor and take those troops out with you. I will even wait for you to exhaust the planets for resources before I move in if I have to.

[twelve]

Now that Tatts and Blend have committed IH if we can get Morgoth to join us and put all of our votes on the arbiter agenda I have an action card that adds 5 votes. That is enough to out vote blend and Tatts. If you two want to do this we can still win.

[twelve]

Or blend you can just pay me your trade agreement and I wont. The choice is yours.

I'll wash your commodity and cancel your debt for your racial and a promise of a free refresh if you ever take trade. You are free to pick whatever strategy card you want.

I assumed you did. I would be in if you are the target of this vote (and you vote against in the event of a speaker tie).

[twelve]

The cancel of debt and the wash is definitely worth my racial alone. Asking for a free refresh on top is just greedy.

You got paid so this doesn't matter to you at all. I'm still willing to pay 2 for your trade agreement pn Tatts
