D'rek - can you confirm if planets with 1 infantry would lose that 1 infantry if this agenda came out FOR?


Yes

1 inf -> 1 destroyed
2 inf -> 2 destroyed
3 inf -> 2 destroyed
4 inf -> 2 destroyed
5 inf -> 3 destroyed

Wish Morgoth posted his status post when he was on yesterday before disappearing for the weekend.

Yeah, figures.

Alright, so if we vote FOR on Swords to Plowshares, the results would be as follows (based on current map, results may be slightly different based on whatever actions have been taken since the last map update):

Blend: +9 TGs, most planets will have 0 infantry left on them, Starpoint and Centauri will be left with 1 infantry.
Twelve: +3 TGs, only home planet will be left with 1 infantry.
Morgoth: +5 TGs, only home planet will be left with 2 infantry, none on any other planet.
IH: +6 TGs, home planet will have 3 infantry, Thibah will have 1, rest will be none.
Tatts: +9 TGs, MR will have 2 infantry left, Bereg and Lirta will have 1 each, Vefut II will have 2.

So really, it would benefit Tatts and I the most, though it would leave most of my planets without any GFs on them, which I'm not a huge fan of.

But 9 tgs Blend. That's huge. Everyone will be in similar boat infantry wise. Just who can put them back the best.

You should want the VP though.

Of course I want the VP but I doubt Morgoth will let me vote on that agenda, and I dont really want people to fight me for it.

If we vote Lodor, it means that IH has more reason to pay attention to Morgoth given he is currently best placed to contest Lodor.

Yeah, thus the disclaimer. Once Drek does another map update we can update the numbers as necessary.

Yeah, if Morgoth doesnt block me voting on Swords I will likely put all my votes on FOR as well, 9TGs will go a long way to reupping my planets with GFs

right, sorry, the week end is normally away from the computer time for me, considering how many hours I spend on it during the week. This was a bit extra hectic, or otherwise I would have stopped by to check the thread.

No worries Morgy, we all said the weekends would be quiet in this game at the start. First 3 rounds fit so perfectly into a week each, but I think it's reasonable to expect round 4 and onwards might become more like 1.5 weeks each as there's more turns being taken and the negotiations/plans get more nittygritty.

Morgoth, you going to be using my Political Secret to prevent me from voting on either of these agendas?

Tatts - I'd like to see whether or not Morgoth will block my votes before I commit to anything, but I may be interested in swapping racials if you're interested.

I think he needed to play it during the status phase like riders per forum rules if I'm not mistaken.

I checked with Drek, she said he would have to play it during this phase - same time we would post trades and such.

If I were the mod, I would have agreed with you above!

That is for cards that say "when an Agenda is revealed".

Political Secret says "Play right before an agenda is to be voted upon" -- a different timing window.

I thought the rules in the reference thread were pretty straightforward about this, but evidently not. Can you suggest how to rewrite that section to make it more intuitive?
