Good game twelve!

Still not sure how it happened. I felt behind all game. Even with a win con available I still didnt think it would happen as I knew I could still be stopped and required you to be stopped as well. Even after we stopped you I thought for sure Blend would allow you to stop me. Crazy ending. I really thought Tatts was going to back into it at the end.

I'll save my thanks for after the win is official. Game isn't over yet.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

And Morgoth with a second action phase secret. I'm really glad I stopped him from the 2nd public objective last round. This game was really close.

Aye, it was a close thing

It's decent in the first of gentlemen

Lesson there is if you can take something, take it. I was going to take Perimeter back but then thought what’s the point, let’s just pass and let the game end. Which of course left it for Morgoth to bombard and get another VP :p

Not that we'll be doing agenda phase, but what does this mean:

Quote

FOR: Alpha and beta wormholes in the wormhole nexus have no effect during movement.


Does it mean that it basically closes the Alpha and Beta in Mallice for movement purposes?

Yep, looks like it. Only Gamma wormhole still open. Juicy agendas - we should move to that phase and try them out ;)

Yup, pretty much. Wormhole nexus becomes gamma-only for ship movement. Though those wormholes would still give you adjacency for trading purposes. Maybe PDS can still fire through, I'd have to look that up.

The wormholes have shrunk and are now too small for ships, but you can still chuck crates of cargo through.

Well, it's a LAW, so the wormholes don't actually shrink... but the government tells everyone they must act as if the wormholes shrank. Because reasons. Something something the economy.

Well played Twelve. You’ve proved that the Winnu are super OP in PoK ;)

I was trying to find ways to stop all three of you this round, but it just couldn’t be done. I really didn’t want to be the one to attack IH, but after Tatts wouldn’t be drawn out and Morgoth wouldn’t be drawn in, I had a big fleet and wanted to end my game with a big fight. I didn’t expect IH to attack you after all his talk of seeing no point in doing it, but I’m glad we ended with that very close battle.

Whoa! Morgoth would have won if I hadn't taken the Rigel planets!!! I feel a whole lot better about getting this win. I had a sneaky suspicion he was a threat but didnt think it was this close.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Thanks. Though I think I need to give Khell a lot of props for trying to put together an action plan to stop IH
