I was screwed no matter what I chose. And what is 1 influence in the grand scheme of things, if I even take it Dal Bootha from D'rek

And Tatts guaranteed if you clear out from Rex D'rek will take it from you and with her picking Imperial next round she will pretty much cinch the win.

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?

Yes, I never expected to get your SftT.

{a} Even if I took MR and had Imperial I would also still need to score 2 stage 2 POs, a stage 1 PO, and 2 secret objectives all in this round + next round to reach 10 VP. Hell of a lot harder than you getting a stage 2 PO this round and 1~2 more VP next round. I don't disagree that that would be a VP boost for me, but it's much less of an imminent threat right now than your potential win.

{b} Tatts has my ceasefire, anyway.

I do have her Ceasefire although with all those cts she can burn through that quite quickly.

[Imperial Historian]

I don't know if d'rek would be able to take rex and hold it long enough to score imperial. It's certainly feasible.

That said if d'rek does take imperial tatts has at least one turn before she goes to reinforce rex so it would probably be easy enough to reinforce.

Of course d'rek probably spends the rest of this turn delaying tatts and moving a big enough force into position to take rex so she can probably take it. The only way I see her not taking it is if tatts spends ct to reinforce rex now, but then he can't score, or he picks diplomacy (though d'rek would probably pick diplomacy and swap it with imperial)

It's very exciting! Looking forward to the new objective. I'm at least going to end on 7 points so not a completely awful game from me.

Is it your turn IH?

[Galactic Council]

Those of you with PDS II, it would be very helpful if you provided a general direction for when and when not you wish to use them.

[Galactic Council]

Actually, since there was plenty of time to clarify one way or the other, I'll chalk this down to no, no PDS fire.

[Galactic Council]

IH, you need to pick a ship to get hit by D'rek.

[Tattersail_]

Here is Dreks SO. Wow. I thought it was tough to do but I didn't go down pds 2, plasma scoring and GLS as Sol.

[Galactic Council]

Que?

[Tattersail_]

She has a PDS SO.

I had it last game but couldn't score it. As Sol you don't research much yellow or red tech

Update your points IH, you are on 6 is that right. Potentially 8 at the end of the round.

Well done on that account Blend.

[Galactic Council]

I just noticed I have IH with 5 points on the tracker on the map. It'll be corrected in the next map update, he should have 6.

[Imperial Historian]

Sorry! Still in the game!

And I can't score any of my SOs so 7 for me at the end of the round. Which considering my position I'm happy with.

[twelve]

Apparently I need to sweet talk those die every round. 3v1 and I still almost lose. Sheesh!

[twelve]

Come on sweet die! You know you want to be good to me.

I don't really think this is fair - the default should have been YES there IS PDS fire if you have no orders.

Like, you sent me a message asking if I wanted to use my PDS at 2am my time, then made this decision at 2:26am my time. I realize you're not really around when I'm up, but I don't think it's fair that you get to decide I don't get to fire my PDS because I wasn't able to respond within 25 minutes while I was asleep like many normal people would be at that time during a weekday.
