@Twelve: I'm still willing to give you the Saar PN - if it looks like you will inevitably beat me then I'd rather do it with as few casualties as possible. It will mean that you also have your strongest possible force defending MR rather than losing some to the ground battle.

Yes. You move spacedock cruiser and 2 infantry. There should be nothing left in that system.

Even if you produce that'll go elsewhere won't it?

Seems an odd time to use Skilled Retreat, but perhaps you have some home system-based objective?

You lost that option by trying to hold Rex this round and forcing me towards a non optimal Hero use. Plus you can still heeo me and Take Rex back using those troops. They must die.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Lol, you say I lost that option as if I was somehow in the weaker position here.

I thought you might say that, but you're also not looking at the whole picture. Why would I want to try and take Rex back? 1) I probably wouldn't have the fleet for it even if I used my Hero to get rid of your infantry and fighters; 2) Why would I need Rex back after this round?

Speaking of non-optimal Hero usages, I don't see why I would use it to tussle with you for Rex yet again. The ONLY reason I would do it is if it looked like you might win otherwise...which doesn't look the most likely outcome at the moment. But to do it just for the sake of retaking Rex - no I would not. If that was the case, I would have positioned my ships to do just that already.

Suit yourself though - lose ships and soldiers, leave yourself more exposed to the next person who wants Rex off you...more than that, leave yourself open to the risk of losing this battle (again), or have a peaceful transition and retake with your full complement.

Empyrean abilities and stellar converter give blend quite a few cool options as a result of this move

Think your TGs are wrong in the status part IH.

Edit: Actually, maybe not. Boy you haven't exactly worded that in the clearest possible manner :p

So guys, IH has two war suns and 18TG in the bank. Still feel like all piling on me?


Edit: Wonder how many command tokens he'll be tempted to buy...

I'm also only on 4 points, and imperial is a distant dream for me. I don't forsee me having many by the end of the status phase.

I predict 6 points for you by the end of this round. There's no way that Quann move isn't some secret objective nonsense :p

Sadly no, I don't think I'll be able to score a SO this round.

That's a tasty homeworld you've left undefended Twelve. Sure would be a shame if someone took it :)

Yeah I know but I'm in last place and the table kinda needs me to do this. My first action was going to reinforce it this round but that went sideways quickly.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Drek - Just a quick note, when Khell activated Bakal/Alio Prima, my commander ability returns my CT to my reinforcements
