So in theory Blend can get his dread to 2 different Alpha wormholes this coming turn?

I'll not use the minister of war then.

That was a risk. I could have moved twice but took the gamble and its cost me any chance at the win this round.

Should I take my turn now then?

Welp, IH, I'll be taking Twelve's homeworld before I blow up Lodor, just FYI.

Twelve can't reinforce his homeworld, and as far as I can see there is very little he can do to make you taking his homeworld harder, Tatts however can stop you destroying Lodor.

I'll take our arnor lor on my turn if you deal with Lodor on your turn as we agreed.

Very well, I agree to this. If you take out Arnor/Lor on your turn, I'll Stellar Converter Lodor on mine then deal with Twelve's homeworld after that.

IH is going to win this one isn't he. Pure manipulator. I love the way you're a harp Blend. Just let him pull on your strings.

Out of everything I have seen so far, that betrayal by Twelve, who will be able to score the 2 VP PO by the way as I doubt you'll hold his HW, had me thinking you'd stellar converter one of those planets instead. Yet no. My mistake.

Khell why throw a ship away like that? You could have activated MR without moving a ship.

Being blackmailed isn't making a deal. I couldn't trust you to honor your end of the deal because you already broke a deal with me. I also am not in a position to win. Even if I get a secret I can score or a stage 2 objective I can score you would all know and now with IHs Warsun right next to my homeworld and you in it I couldn't score. Once again Morgoth is going to win because people ignore him. I dont understand IHs fear of my capabilities as I have never won and Morgoth has won multiple games.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I would have preferred to curtail Morgoth, alas he killed my warsun first

If I take his HW, I destroy 2 of his structures, so he won't be able to claim the 2VP PO. Particularly if IH also takes Arnor/Lor. He also has already activated his HW, so he unless he has Unexpected Action, he won't be able to do anything about me taking his HW, so he won't be able to score any POs.

This here stinks of desperation on your part, trying to make me think that following IH's very sensible advice is being his puppet when in fact it is the best way to ensure you can't win the game this round.

All you had to do was make me speaker, and you would still have a chance at a win.

If I make a threat, I will go through with it if I have to. I made it very clear that I would prevent you from any chance of winning if you didn't make me speaker, and even promised not to stand in your way if you had an obvious way to a win with your strategy choice. You may not believe me, but I would have kept my deal.

Your problem is that you're too rigid. The moment you decide you don't want to do something, you NEVER bend. This was an easy bend for you that wouldn't have cost you a thing, yet you decided to just throw away your game anyway. Not really my problem that you did so.

Would you be amenable to exchanging ceasefire PN's and I give you 1 TG. I just do not like that fleet near my home system. I know it won't stop you using your hero but you may need that to stop Morgoth or others from winning.

(Shakes my head in disbelief. Shrugs.) Do you not care that you are throwing away a point to do this?

I think he means if you decide to use mine, as I've activated MR.
