Tatts, does our deal this round still hold even if I purge my Hero elsewhere? That is, you won't be tempted to come over here just because the threat is gone?


I'd prefer you to do that, then I'll feel less threatened.


That doesn't really answer the question though.


I'm always tempted Khell but we have a deal in place.

And if Blend were to move that cruiser out of the gamma wormhole system, would you be at all tempted to go after his home system?

I have already activated it, but it is an option with the Minister of Law, it would be good repayment of the Massacre of Lodor.

I will not be moving that Cruiser so you Tatts can steal a VP from Morgoth. Tatts doesn't need any free VPs.

How do you figure I can get to Morgoth if you moved the ship from the Gamma wormhole, way too many moves.

No I won't really have anything to do anything with next round to help anyone with dealing with points leaders. I guess that's fine given it'll be the last round, but still... You could have asked.

You can rejoice in the fact that your entire game came down to preventing me from winning. Well done.

Sorry, I just couldn't be sure. I did consider asking, but then didn't know if I could trust what you'd say! Small consolation: originally I was just going to march in this turn without even using the Hero. This way you can still move out the non-fighters.

Chalk that up as error #27 this game.

Hey, Blend also prevented me from winning - or at least being on the cusp of winning for this round. I'd say he's played a strong game overall, certainly been a king...not maker, more like regicider.

Eh, it's the strength of the Empyrean, I think, to fuck with people's games, draw it out as long as possible to make it possible for me to snag a win.

I don't know that I warrant being compared to Gnaw - that guy just didn't really understand how to work WITH people. I've mostly worked with you all at various points through the game. Yes I've fucked Khell's game, and then Tatts' game, and will likely still end up fucking other folks' games too before this is done, but that's how Empyrean works, I think. I don't see any way to pull off a win otherwise.

preventing someone else from winning is the logical move. I don't see why that's controversial.

It certainly is a choice though.

Tell me again who has fucked you over this game?

Stellar converter use on me was excessive given that there were multiple options to prevent me gaining structures. Leaving others the chance to score it at the same time.

Your certainly enjoying the outcome of this round so far.

Stellar Converter was the right choice. You yourself took away the main option by taking Minister of War. If SC wasn't brought up as an option then I would have had to use my Hero in the hopes that someone could capitalise, but that was much less a certainty than SC.

Morgoth and IH have got in the fewest squabbles so it's perhaps unsurprising that they're both now probably ready to pounce on the points. At least Morghy took out one of those War Suns - that fight made both of them slightly more exposed next round. Slightly.

Why would they? I’ve taken no systems particularly tempting to anyone else, and until now I’ve been tied for last in points. When you are the point leader, or the person seen to be at the front, you will get the most attention. That is the way of any game, and is certainly how we’ve played all of ours here on the forum.
