Oohh, Swords to Plowshares, that's fun! Looks like we get a chance to destroy a bunch of Khell's infantry on Mecatol.


I don't know, I think I'd rather khell has 16 infantry on rex than 10+tg!


It will be interesting to see which way that agenda goes for sure!

Infantry doesn't include mechs I assume?

Nope, infantry and mechs are different units.

Yeah, that's actually a good point, give him all those TGs and he'll just put twice as many infantry back down on his first turn.

His commander's a real pain in the ass.

I'm thinking we should elect Khell for the Secret Objectives thing, that way we can do our best to ensure he can't score any SOs, given he controls Rex, is in the lead, and has yet to score any of his SOs.

I'd volunteer for the hit. I currently dont have any and I'm not likely to get anymore the rest if the game anyway so will take the hit for having them openly revealed.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

How many infantry on Rex does Khell have? I thought it was 16 but there is only 14 on the map.

There are two sides to this though and it could mean that khell draws 2 SOs he can score. And since no one other than twelve seems to be making any effort to actually stop him running away with the game I'm not sure it would make much difference.

I would support it if people agreed to move against khell and at the very least deny him planets.

I can't decide if khell is more dangerous with TG or infantry, and have come to the conclusion... Both are bad. He can't rebuild on rex though as his space dock isn't there which is something.

I suppose reducing his infantry on all his planets is marginally better if people can get forces out to take those planets off him.

I mean, I can probably take a planet or two off him if we reduce the infantry on them. The problem is that he can probably just take them right back, or come take some of my planets.

I can't decide which way I'd prefer it, so I'm just going to look at it as a net positive whichever way it goes :p

I would like to point out that all this discussion of me makes it sound like I'm miles ahead and about to win, when neither is the case. Twelve will no doubt take Imperial this round so it's not like I'm in line to score points like I did last round.

I'd be very surprised if he took imperial, he pretty much needs warfare to take rex off you due to his lack of bringing any infantry.

I initially thought let's go for TGs but the infantry option is probably the lesser of the two evils. I think we need to do the +1 infantry and not give Khell access to additional scoring opportunities. So I'm dropping all my votes for me for search warrant.

Actually I'm not. I'm picking warfare

When he built more most recently they didn't all go on MR, 2 of 'em went on other planets.

Still waiting for my action card draw (*cough cough DREK cough cough*) but would definitely be willing to help if it ended up in my hand.
