My hero is a bit odd, I have no idea how I can effectively use it!

[Imperial Historian]

And tatts fyi you can keep hold of tomb of emphida and continue to use it's power and claim the vp at a later time, I don't think you have to purge.

So if you want to keep using it, and you think you'll keep hold of lodor you might want to delay.

It would be a great way to reinforce your front lines. Take a couple of planets (Mecatol, for example) then use your hero to move ships to the front lines. Based on the text of your hero ability, I don't think it even matters if the systems your ships are in are locked down, so like, you could, say, take Mecatol Rex, build in your home system, then use your hero ability to move things you built in your home system over to Mecatol.

It is a kind of specific ability that won't be as useful as some others I've seen.

That's a nice SO for you to have pulled, Tatts. Kinda like when I pulled the one where I had to be next to another player's HW in the first round when I was already next to Morgoth's HW!

Yes, my eyes lit up. I didn't even plan to play Imperial secondary but the way people played theirs forced it upon me

You're getting very fortunate this game - perhaps this is the one, Tatts!

I can see a few uses, its great at moving ships that have low movement and if someone is going to win and you need to do something about it, like Saar with a massive fleet then War sun and protection my friend. Its a great hero imo

Yep I'm not risking it or anchoring ships to a particular system. I'm done with explores for the most part now.

You're on 5 points too now with that Emphidia purge! But everyone will be looking at me because of Rex, so you can sneak some more points on the board while they're busy taking me apart

4 points with the purge

Ah I thought you scored a PO as well as SO this round.

[Blend]

I know what one of the agendas will be, but I buried Colonial Redistribution. Excited to see what the other will be!

Why did you do that? Khell would have had to give you or me a planet? At the least you had to know you weren't going to lose something.

I was kind of hoping to manage to get a point this round so didn't expect to be in last place after this past status phase and didn't want to risk losing a planet.

I did think the same. Oh well, probably something worse in store for me!

Does the new colonial redistribution allow targetting of legendary planets?

That would have been fun!

COLONIAL REDISTRIBUTION | DIRECTIVE | ELECT NON-HOME PLANET OTHER THAN MECATOL REX: Destroy each unit on the elected planet. Then, the player who controls that planet chooses 1 player with the fewest victory points; that player may place 1 infantry from his reinforcements on the elected planet.

Yep - only home planets and Mecatol can't be targeted.

[Blend]

Oohh, Swords to Plowshares, that's fun! Looks like we get a chance to destroy a bunch of Khell's infantry on Mecatol.

Agendas and new PO are up. Action cards and map update coming soon.

I don't know, I think I'd rather khell has 16 infantry on rex than 10+tg!
