I had forgotten to add my Trade refresh in my post - I've edited it in. Drek - lemme know if there's a problem with that.

No problemo

@IH - two explorationy things for you to resolve, and indeed they must be done in that order (i.e. you can't spend Ashtroth to pay for producing on Loki)

As a point of info - the rules state the player can decide in what order you explore planets, so when you're exploring a system that explores more than one planet, you should always state in what order you're exploring.

Could I theoretically use the influence to build a mech on ashtroth in order to ready it?

I thought you were going to pop Tech then move towards me as your second action so we can trade?

I thought you were moving towards me so we can trade

I have to pop trade first to have something to trade and I didnt want to miss out on tech. I'll be moving to neighbor before Morgoth has agreed to use warfare so we all should be good.

Okay! As long as you trade with me before morgoth!

And if you don't I will go with whatever order you listed the planets. And if you don't name them in your TA, I'll just be random or do alphabetical, so don't risk it

Yes, you could exhaust Ylir with Freelancers to build a mech on ashtroth.

And this isn't using production right so sarween tools doesn't apply?

[D'rek]

And yes, it's gamey to get to see all the explore cards you draw and then resolve them in a way that knowing the last one while you resolve the first one lets you anticipate stuff. But eh, I don't want the game to be massively slowed down by explores, so I'm going to keep revealing all explore cards in a turn at once, regardless. Everyone will potentially benefit from this equally and there's not a whole lot of difference to what comes out of it either way.

Cool, I think that's the right call, I'm not going to do that but wanted to establish precedent!

I've posted my move up to Exploring - as it's two planets it could get a little complex so I'd rather wait to see what they are this time round.

@Tatts: I've put in that you've given me the Terraform PN, is that right?

@Morgoth: I've put in that we're exchanging SftTs, is that right?

Teeeeechnically you just said you were moving the ships to the system, you never said the ground forces were landing on the planets. Can't explore the planets if you don't take control of them, and you can't take control of them if you don't land on them! Better add that part in!

And it's Ba'kal, not Ka'kal, you Baka

Sorry, forgot and fixed!

I couldn't read the names well with the image resolution, so I google searched and the reddit thread which listed the planets called it Ka'kal, so I copied that. I guess that's the internet for you

Those are some good explores, nice card drawing! Am I allowed to gain the 1 commodity if I already have 3 out of 3 commodities (i.e. can I have 4/3)?

Guess it's the mech then!

[Khellendros]

There's only 4 mechs, is that correct?

Also, I was looking through the new possible POs - I don't think there's any tech-related ones? Which is good, I never liked those. Harder for Jol-Nar though!

So what's my frontier explore? I'll probably get the first fragment. Those seem to be not selected yet
