I could not find a way into which I could honestly attack IH. 😫

Truth be told he's held up to his side of the alliance all game. I'm not breaking that relationship.

If I could have done it and won I world have like with Khell earlier on.


True friendship wins out in the end!

You sure you don't even want to use the Leadership secondary before you pass?

Now tatts has gone, I have to ask why did blend passing his blood pact PN to twelve to give twelve a stall never come up. That was the one guaranteed move to stop me scoring the 6ct objective and I've been spending the last few weeks worried one of you would have spotted it.

Honestly didn't even think of that as a stall action.

Where is that viewable though? Unless you have good knowledge of the opposing factions then the only person who could know that would have been Blend.

If Twelve said I have no way of stalling and there was a way, then that's our fuck up really isn't it.

When people were going through what they can bring to the table. No one thought to say, oh I have this available?

It's not in his gamepost or opening post, so only in his PM I think, if he did not know it could stall then that is why

I mean, my faction PNs are available in the Reference thread, you all had the same access to it as IH did. I honestly completely forgot that it was an action to play the PN, so didn't even think of it as a potential stall.

I did say I couldn't stall and asked for stall options. No one offered and frankly after Morgoth took Rex stalling would have cost me the game more than not. Congrats on another win IH.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Tatts, Tatts, Tatts.

If you wanted to pay me back for your sudden yet inevitable betrayal, all you had to was betray IH, stop him from scoring, make sure that IH conquered Twelve's homeworld, and then let me win the game.

I've been working so hard trying to get everyone to work together to ultimately make me win the game, and you pass? Much disappoint.

I was really hoping no one had actually paid attention to the new SO I pulled out, but of course IH and his blabbermouth has to point it out.


Now that I can't win any longer, I throw off my mask of fake interest in "extending the game/having someone other than IH win" :p

I actually did think of this, but thought pointing it out would lead to Tatts not taking any action against you because it would leave the rest of us more time to do something, which I didn't want, because I needed Tatts to come out and attack you.

Blend, do you still want me to move from the alpha wormhole?

Ok, so I could take Loki and Abaddon, which may or may not stop IH from winning with Imperial. But what is motivating me to do it? Then either Twelve wins, or IH invades Twelve and Tatts wins.

The only thing I could see acting as a motivator is a promise of a VP from it. Someone's SftT. And I don't see anyone giving theirs up. In fact, probably the only one who could is Blend, by moving in on Twelve, and then Twelve giving me his SftT. But really, why would he do that?

Sure I'd give you my sftt if I had it but that is on blend.

Ooooooooo Codex #2 has been released!

(https://www.fantasyf...fourth-edition/ - go to Support at the bottom)

Basic game components-wise, seems like the only new thing is more relics. But there's some interesting new map suggestions and a game variant where you start in fixed alliances, too.

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.

The new maps look bonkers. We should definitely use them.

See that big fleet knocking on my front door? See the explosion of Lodor? I was not going to do anyone else favours unless it helped me a step closer to winning.

The maps do look good! Too many options to defend oneself properly I think!

Magi's Madness looks very fun. Won't You Be My Neighbour looks terrifying. And I love that Race for Mecatol one with MR on the map edge instead of the centre.
