Well, Tapper can't actually get any infantry to it just yet, and it's just a sole destroyer guarding Mallice for now. Good thing Tapps swapped ceasefires with IH or I guess there'd be a warsun parked in Mallice pretty much immediately.

That said, @Tapper I guess you're going to grab gravity drive so that you can actually get an infantry to Mallice this round, but that's still only enough range to put 1 dreadnought there if I'm reading the map right. Did you want me to clear the asteroid field so you can get a 2nd one there?

I will maintain a solemn, dignified silence with regard to my intentions. Whomever attacks that destroyer does so at their own peril...


Kk, I'm gonna play TRADE next then.

@Morgoth - There's still time to make a deal for a free refresh for you. But 1 use of Tekklar Legion just plain isn't worth it. How about unlimited uses of Tekklar Legion this round?

Do you have the action card that acts like Warfare? Otherwise why would you need the boost to infantry fighting?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I don't have Unexpected Action, no. (But if someone else does, please sell it to me ^_^ ). But I can warfare build from my homeworld and cover the distance with tech/flank speed.

So twelve, are we planning to do some gene sorcering on Evarra? Might I remind you that us bugs are not made out of genes but bug goop? No value to be had for one such as you.

Sardakk mech and 5 infantry is going to be pretty tough to gene sorcerer.

Shame nebula bonus doesn't apply to ground combat.

I wonder how many +1s the sardakk can stack, nebula, flagship, and sardakk is a +3. Winnu commander could get you to +4.

It's the whole reason I built my flagship last round. Dice stacking seems a fun strategy :D

Guys when Twelve plays his ability to remove a command token from the board, when I play technology, is it at that point the command token is removed?

Just as an example, if someone play technology and researches Fleet Logistics, they take another turn, but do they have to wait until the Mahact's next turn where they play the technology secondary to remove a token from the board to use those ships?

I think that is the case but wanted to double check as I saw something in the chat thread earlier about him playing it when the secondary was played.

In real life play you'd immediately be able to take another move with fleet logistics, in forum play you would have to wait until after twelves go.

Thanks, I wonder how many other situations are affected by this. I'll stick with my original plan then.

Oh that. I have no problem with that, I figured someone would. If I lose it, well, I got what I wanted out of it this round.

Agreed and great! I'll put the first pass in my turn. If possible, I will try to do the fun meta double-play of using it twice in one tactical activation ^_^

If I somehow end up with it still in my hand at the end of the round, I will pass it back to you when I pass.

@IH/Khell - we already negotiated for free upgrades of your commodities so on your turns when you replenish commodities you can go ahead and post the commodity swaps without further discussion.

Winnu commander is +2, so +5 in total there. Morale Boost and Crown of Thalnos for +7. Fighter Prototype and Prophecy of Ixth for +3 on fighters, making un-upgraded fighters never ever miss.

If the Mahact can gene-sorceror Creuss space farts, I'm sure they can ensorcel some goop.
