Your flagship deploy should have been immediately after the activation step of the tactical action, not all the way after production; "DEPLOY: After you activate a system that contains 1 or more of your PDS, you may replace 1 of those PDS with this unit "


I was trying to keep each planet separate for easier reference.

Both flagship and awaken are after, so as long as they're in the order in which I can unlock my commander then thats okay, it does mean I can only produce 1 unit as only one PDS will be in the system at that time.


Yes, exactly.

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.

I thought you were going to play tech straight away Tatts?


Yeah I was hoping for that too


Sorry, plans changed, might be on my third turn now as I'm planning to use the 2tgs from Mallice to do the tech secondary. However if I think it too risky I might get the PDS 2 first and waste 1 resource by exhausting HS and Lodor.

I am physically unable to stall. I have no Tactical tokens and none of my action cards allow a stall
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I figured, but thought I'd ask.

Ah well my dream of a warfare'd warsun is not to be.

I see a Lazax Gate Folding and a Flank Speed in Twelve's future. At least that's the only way I see him getting here without begging Blend for passage and a boost. I suppose there's Carrier II as well but again the problem is movement. I suppose I should quit trying to work out how Twelve is going to get to MR and just accept that he is. Unless of course I just go ahead and place a ship in that alpha wormhole spot.

IH, what would I need to do for you to not shoot at my ship there?

In MR? Yes, but it would be largely pointless. His +2 or even +3 if he uses the Crown on every shot frankly makes him unbeatable in MR if he brings a fleet of any significant size.

Edit: It means his dreads would hit on 3 or even 2 and above, his carriers would be cruisers, and his fighters would be better than upgraded fighters.

@ Blend: Another possible option is that you let me move through Primor to take the fight to Twelve in Lisis-Velnor. I wouldn't give you anything for this because by doing so I will be moving everything I can off MR and leaving it much easier for anyone else, including you, to take.

Standard fee for not firing is 1TG, but since it's a contested territory that is not mine or my allies I wouldn't be firing unless twelve paid me too

Khell remember when I said I MIGHT do something about you on Rex? Well Tatts not playing Tech pretty much secured it as a no. I'm probably going to pass or not even play Tech and reinforce Winnu. I need to turtle me thinks.

Maybe you can work out a deal with Blend so you can take planets off IH so Blend can keep Mirage and that will prevent IH from getting a Warsun on the board.

We've had some good snow in London so I'm out toboganning, but I will post a move as soon as I get back. Sorry for the hold up, the sticking point is which secondaries to play, so I'd like to see what Blend has to say. But if he doesn't respond, I'll post a move anyway when I'm home.

No worries khell weekend play is always slower.

I wonder what twwlve has in his back pocket?

Tech next turn from tatts I think is functionally identical to tech first turn for twelve isn't it? Someone loaning tatts 2tg would allow him to do that, but I'm not at all sure if speeding the winnu's journey to rex is something I want or not!

I think that's quite short-sighted but alright. Good luck keeping those legendary planets when +2 Winnu comes calling.

Yeah, I also don't see what difference Tech first or second round makes to Twelve if he's just playing Warfare on his second turn. We'll see I guess!

I am already vacating Mirage for IH, and I have deals with Twelve for Primor. Keeping up my side of those deals should be enough to keep Twelve off it.
