3 with Tatts and 1 each with you and me so far.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Which means I've eaten 5 Fleet Tokens, aka 15 influence in total this round, and I lost a Cruiser, a Carrier, 5 Fighters, 8 Infantry, which comes out to 12.5 resources' worth of troops. All in all, a successful round of slap and dash, methinks! :)

You do realize one of the 3 fights with Tatts you initiated... wait! Have you attacked Tatts 2x this round with him retaliating both times as well?

Plus you spent 2 tokens in doing so Blend. So it's more like 18.5 resources.

3 tokens, plus losing some planets, but yes probably positive overall as you took rex and jord plus space dock off tatts.

I don't say how that's a positive for everyone. Looking at the board and the flow of the game both you and Morgoth benefited the most from Blends carelessness.

He could have took MR later in the round and I wouldn't have been able to take it back.

Bad round for me as I missed out on Bereg aswel thanks to you IH.

You haven't had a bad round yet. At the moment I don't see Blend, Twelve or myself winning.

IH and Morgoth do not have a threat or conflict.

Before you say what about Lodor, I'd say what about it. Unexpected action has been discarded so he couldn't pull the same move again yet you ran away with your tail between or legs and agreed to Ceasefire.

He's taking technology next round to move closer to the tech vp

I would agree that Morgoth was the clear beneficiary of the last round and blends moves, but it is probably a net positive for blend.

And I'd say this is still anyone's game, it's very finely balanced.

Before I pass next turn, anybody want to buy my racial for a free CT? I'm open to offers.

Aye, it's an interesting distribution. Even twelve is in the running still.

Well if you want to get nitpicky about it, you, IH and Twelve have spent 4 tactical tokens total in addition to all the fleet tokens I've stolen, so add another 12 influence to the initial 15 I made yall waste. I still come out way ahead, methinks.

You're just sour because I had to make sure you were less of a threat to me before I stretched to do anything about Morgoth or IH. Don't worry, I'm not completely clueless, but I also wasn't going to stretch that far into someone else's territory before I had done something to secure my position on this end of the map.

Realistically, your early game stretch against Twelve was more of a problem then what I did this past round. You should have been caring more about IH from the start rather than fucking with Twelve.

I shouldn't be. You all skipped so many opportunities to score points. Not sure why.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I'll do it for your racial and a TG if I have to use it this round (nowhere I really need more infantry)
If I can use your racial when I want I'll do a straight swap.

I'd do a straight racial swap for you to use it this round.

It'll benefit you I think anyway but that's the offer.

I've just realised I can't even use it this round. You have passed so I can't use it at the start of your turn. So I'll do a straight swap to use it next round.
