Help
So, now that twelve has done his move, I guess I can participate in the strategising too. I was thinking of taking ME, which should be very doable unless twelve holds another sabotage. How does that fit into all the other plans?

or, I forget - Blend, does your ability allow me to travel through the nebula too? If so there's no real fear of sabotage either.

You don't gain the ability to move freely through nebula with aetherstream, so you'd have to use in the silence of space.

It doesn’t really help at this stage as we still need to take 5 influence off IH or one of his home system planets. Otherwise everything else is moot.

I don't really have the strenght to do that though, and I don't particularly want to help twelve to victory when he's the reason I am no longer a contender either.

Huh, I assumed it was but I can't find any evidence that it is!

Well the hope is that IH makes twelve a non-contender by taking his homeworld. Of course, IH will say why would he do that, but I say, because he has a war sun and he wants to have fun using it.

You actually DO have the strength, Morgoth. I’d at least wait to see what happens before your turn before deciding anything.

Also you taking MR doesn’t by itself stop twelve from winning.

Indeed, it is not.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

No because currently you are winning. And like Khell states if you are stopped then you would be incentivized to attack me in my homeworld to stop me to win at that point and then Tatts will likely win.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Not true. Taking MR doesn’t stop Twelve from winning. Taking MR AND then some more influence on top of that would. Far easier to just take his homeworld.

Fear not twelve, I'm not going to take your homeworld unless I think it will help me win!

Frankly you dont need to do much to win. There seems to be a serious case of apathy in regards to taking Influence off of you. Congrats on yet another win. Not sure how you continue to do it over and over.

I mean, I will be taking Atlas. Not like there is much else I can do.

My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK
