Khell has Light/Wave, he can move through Tatts' or my ships.

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

My action card draw was shit. I've decided not to take a 2nd action this turn, so back around to Morgoth! :)

Doesn't matter though. 3+Aetherstream can get Son of ragh to the system via the alpha wormhole.


My Destroyer had 4 movement (2 plus Aetherstream plus Gravity Drive).

That fight went so much better than I expected. Just when it least mattered to me how the fight went :p

I also got very lucky that one of my ships still had sustain damage going into combat.

I’ve held that Reflective Shielding from the very beginning of the game, it was the AC I got when we started. I’ll be honest, I went into a fight just to finally use it :)

Ya but remember how at the start of the game we talked about how abilities which "apply +1 to the move value of" would factor into the agent and we concluded it had to be the printed value being matched, not the final movement value?

I dont understand what you're saying here. I used Aetherstream + Gravity Drive to add +2 movement several times in the game. Wouldn't Khell's destroyer be able to do the same?

Edit: never mind I see what you mean now. Forgot about Khell's agent. Duh.

Not that it will impact things greatly but I should have had one more AFB from argent commander.

The reflective shielding was great... though I think if my destroyers had hit your sustain during AFB you could have used it if I read the card right.

I thought it was a 50:50 fight but I got annihalated.

Welp here's hoping for a scorable SO!

Yes...I totally didn’t entirely misremember that conversation concluding the opposite. Ahem. Cough.

Huh. Didnt see that coming. Now for my turn against IH. Tatts you just might get the win after all.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I’m now really hoping that IH does not take Winnu just like he kept saying he wouldn’t :p
