Effectively 42TG! Amazing


It's not effectively 42 TG. You can't spend a TG as 2 TG, even with mirror computing.

@Morghy - Just pointing out there's a Mentak fighter in Lodor in the current map that should be dead, don't mistakenly add it into my next turn's battle.


I wonder what you could possibly be doing :p

Alas blend I don't think you'll be scoring your SO


I figured it would be the case, but I had to try! It was the only planet I could potentially get to. Oh well!

Up until this turn I was gonna let you have it, actually, but I did the math of possible objectives for next round plus my SO draw was bad, and not being able to go through the alpha just became too much of a reduction of my potential options. Sorry!

(Though I really wish I could've drawn Unveil Flagship as my new SO and then done this to score it right away.)

Like I said, I fully expected you to kick me out before the end of the round, so no biggie!

I've given my orders to retreat to Mallice to Morgoth.

I am amendable to doing the PDS, it alters nothing of the outcome after all. But I do not feel it is correct of me to make that assumption without some sort of instruction from the player, and to my mind we have no standing rule in our games that PDS fire on the surrounding systems unless otherwise specified.


I feel like "use it" is the default for any optional ability that can be used at no cost and isn't limited in its uses. Like, for example, if I didn't give specific orders about using my Mentak Ambush ability you would most likely assume I want to use it in a battle, rather than assume I want to skip it, etc.


I disagree with that comparison. Your ambush ability is part of an attack and will by definition be included. As would the PDS of the attacker and/or the defender. The PDS of a player who's not participating however, by choosing to use it they decide to alter the outcome in one players favor against the other. That is not something I think you can assume as a mod unless it's been specified. Or, I at least don't feel comfortable making that choice on behalf of the players.

Right, but you did make that decision for me - you decided not to use them. *shrugs*

I realize you were anxious to just resolve that battle, but I should still have been given the choice if you weren't certain.

If it's an action card with the exact timing of "After you activate a system:" (ie the same as the ceasefire card), then yes I'd have to play the first AC before he plays Ceasefire.

After the (color) player activates a system that contains 1 or more of your units: The (color) player cannot move units into the active system. Then, return this card to the (color) player.

Ah D'rek can move her units from her home planet now so it would potentially be a 5 v 2

As far as I can see you can move 4 infantry. So gives you a good opportunity to take Rex. With you taking Imperial next round you could score mega points. Just looking at action cards.
