If I was to do that would someone be able to swap SFTT with me? Hmm as I'd be losing out there.

Yes, I'd give you my SftT to make up for it.

Hmm, but, uh, that does block some of the cruisers that were going to come from my homeworld through the alpha to Dal Bootha/Xxehan...?

Oh, sorry, you had said you were going to use the ships from Centauri/Gral, so I assumed that was all you needed. My bad.

It's alright.

[Galactic Council]

Right, battle is updated and all. All I lack is an answer from Blend as to whether he'll use his PDS on D'rek or not.

Sorry for no update last night. It was one of those days.

[Tattersail_]

Debated about it but I'm not going to make it easy for you to win Twelve.

Drek you should be able to take Arinam without a response now.

[Imperial Historian]

I think this is now a game of how much stuff can D'rek have.

Answer: More than you'd think

Twelve if you wanted to make Blend spend tgs over exhausting planets then Corneeq resculon might be a good system to move to?

Why would he do that instead of trying to stop you and Drek from stopping him from scoring this round?

He loses a VP if he attacks me.

Right, but it's still in his interest to try to score instead of causing me problems. His going for Corneeq/Resculon does nothing to prevent me from scoring this round as the TGs I'll receive from ERes will make up the influence I'll lose from his taking those planets and his taking those planets doesn't help him in any way, all it does is help you and/or Drek, so again, why would he waste his turn doing that?

[Blend]

I also still have Twelve's Ceasefire, so basically you're just trying to get him to waste CTs?

[D'rek]

Eugh, that's what I was afraid was going to happen. Didn't want to say anything in the hopes Twelve wouldn't see it but...

Tatts, I don't understand... you didn't build anything with capacity in your warfare build, so you're not going to try and take Torkan at all? So there's point in any of this, you're letting Twelve buy the stage 2 objective with TG + Torkan ??? Hell, I would've given you a couple TGs if you needed them to build a dreadnought or carrier...

[D'rek]

Ohhh wait, I see what you're doing. Ok, that's clever

Him doing the orbital drop screwed me over royal. So I guess all I can do is slow the Mentak steamroller

No it doesn't. You just don't attack Meer and you keep your SftT, and you fulfill the stage 2 PO this round. Puts you at 8 VP in this status phase, or 9 if you fulfill a SO. Very easy for you to get that 1 more VP next round and win.

That's why Tatts had to/has to go for Torkan. He can't *make* you attack him to lose your SftT, but taking away Torkan means you can't score the stage 2 VP, keeping you at 7~8 VP this round.

You don't build any capacity ships so Twelve doesn't think he needs to move to Torkan to protect it as it looks like you can't take that from him... because it's easy to overlook that MR is not activated! Then after he moves to Dal Bootha to block me you send the carrier from MR to take Torkan?

[Tattersail_]

Yes.

One thing I didn't consider though is that I cannot give you my SftT unless Twelve does attack me.

but you'll still compensate me with your SftT?
