IH, I was hoping that was not going to be your first action. Now I'm going to struggle finding 7 structures I think. Meaning I'm not going to be in a position to win or affect the outcome next round, as it looks like I'm being penned in. I applaud the action though. I am already forced to do an action I don't want to do but needs must. I think my next turn will be a surprise to all.



You're not going to strip naked and perform the Macarena again are you?


That would be telling, and who says I would not want to do that?

By my count you can definitely do it unless someone takes one structure away from you.

So Twelve - any chance you've changed your mind about the Speaker token? Is it worth me not taking Lisis/Velnor on this turn, then exploding Everra on my next turn to you? Legit last chance to save your game! :)

No way you'd do that.

Quite a nasty plan though

Why would I not do that?

I will be waiting until I hear back from Twelve before posting my action, btw, in case that wasn't clear. I am monitoring the thread today, so shouldn't take too long once I DO hear back from him.

FINE!!!!!!

But you need to follow through with the carrot portion along with withdrawing the stick. I get the Strategy card I want which means leaving the one I want and not using action cards or other shenanigans to prevent my selection. You turn back on your Aether abilities to me and you dont do any of those other mean thing you just threatened.

Not that it matters anyway. I need a miracle to win even with Imperial.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Great! Glad we could come to a deal! :) You promise to make me speaker, I'll turn my Aether abilities back on, you get your Strategy card of choice and I won't action card it into my hand somehow, and I won't destroy your chance at the game! :)

I'm going to trust you to keep your word here. Please don't make me regret it.

Now I gotta figure out what to do with my turn, I didn't think I'd actually get you to budge.

You wouldn't budge IH. I don't think I would have either but I think the double spacedock is integral to the 3 or more VP round Twelve wants to accomplish

Well I suspect twelve is just going to build on the double spacedock and then renege on the deal, he has form for that on my previous attempts to strongarm him with non-binding deals.

I now make sure to strongarm with binding deals.

And yes the argent only believe in strong arming other people. :p

Yes, well, I don't think he can build enough at Lisis/Velnor to be able to completely stop me if I really want to make a run at it, so I guess we'll see how things go when he plays Politics. I also still have my Stellar Converter.

Morgoth, you still interested in relic fragments? I've got an industrial here for 2TGs if you want it. Also, would you mind flipping my commodity?


Sure, I'd be happy to on both accounts.


Okay, given you only have 2TGs at the moment, I flipped my commodity on my turn. As I can't do 2 separate trades with you during my turn, you'll have to post the trade of 2TGs for my Industrial Fragment on your turn.

I put it off as long as I could, longer than I had planned to really, but alas, I had to let the green into my life.

Hey Khell, would you be willing to wash three commodities for me?
Take good care to keep relations civil
It's decent in the first of gentlemen
To speak friendly, Even to the devil
