And hey guys, if you actually put some effort into formatting your posts maybe we wouldn't have a ton of these hiccups everytime I catch up, eh? Would save me from pulling my hair out every time I have to try and decipher all your cryptic as fuck mashes of descriptions

Like, jesus christ how did you think putting 4 different ship moves from 3 different systems plus 3 different ability applications all into one line with no paragraph breaks or syntax was a good idea???

AND HAVEN'T WE FIGURED OUT THAT IF YOU MAKE A TRANSACTION IN ONE TURN YOU DON'T HAVE TO POST IT IN THE RECEIVING PLAYER'S NEXT TURN TOO AS IF IT WERE A BRAND NEW TRADE I SWEAR WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS A DOZEN TIMES NOW

@Twelve - on your latest turn, you tried to move a carrier through the Everra nebula. Can't do that, ships must stop at a nebula (unless you're Empyrean).

I thought because I get a +1 movement from Aetherpassage that I can. But if that doesnt allow it then dont worry about that part of the move.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

And destroying everything of mine when it's not necessary to stop me only means I can't help with the inevitable task of trying to stop IH later.

This. Plus I still would like to score a Vp this round and fighting Khell to the death puts that in serious jeopardy.

Because I'm doing all my posts from a phone and having all the information is more important than how its laid out. I do the best I can.

I could still name you Speaker Tatts. Obviously you would have to leave me alone this round.



So I leave you alone this and you'll name me speaker?

I'll obviously leave you your choice of strategy.

That sound like a deal?

Yeah, that seems like a deal. No intruding on my territories or screwing me in some other way (like action cards, agent play etc.) and I’ll name you speaker with 1st choice of card reserved for me.

A good exertion of pressure there Tatts :p

Honestly you would have had a better deal earlier in the round but I was fully prepared to take 2 systems off you otherwise.

Deal then.

I'll go post my move.

I know that D’rek’s being serious, and I fully agree with her points (and I’ll try to be even clearer), but I did laugh out loud at ‘cryptic as fuck mashes of description’ :)

Probably but I was in a better position earlier and so was less bothered about striking a deal or not. But times change and one has to adapt!

Yeah I think I got it confused with if a ship starts in a nebula you only have 1 movement but can go more if it gets additional modifiers.

@IH your math is off. I have you at 15 TG. It's probably because you posted the same trades in two different turns.


I don't think I am off?

On my last turn I had 3 TG

Off turn i used morgoth, khell, twelve and tatts trade PNs for another 11 Tg

Meaning 14tg at this point

Morgoth gave me 5, 2 for each hazardous relic, plus 1 to give to twelve

So 19 TG

Tatts gave me 1 TG

So 20 TG

I gave 3 tg to twelve

So 17 TG

Then I produced and used tatts commander, so +1 TG

So total of 18TG, is there something I've missed?

I appreciate that posting trades twice isn't the clearest , but I find posts listing how you have gained stuff which wasn't in your last post helpful for following what has happened off turn, maybe we need a better way to format that.

@Morgoth - did you give IH 5 TGs or 6 TGs on your turn? The way it is written is confusing.

IH's post says "5 TG [...] plus 1" (which is stupid and confusing) which sounds like 6 but then your next status post says you have 4 TG left which would indicate you sent him 5.


He gave me 5, wasn't the clearest description

Eugh, I rewrote the entire spreadsheet here but see the problem now. Khell didn't put the trade secondary in his turn (it is mandatory since you gave him a free refresh with the primary).

My bad, the whole thing passed me by as I had no personal interest in Trade after giving the PN to IH.

@Blend - Unless I'm missing something, you didn't update the commodity you gained from explore in your status block. I added it.
