I don’t think you can do your move, only alpha and beta holes are adjacent, not your gamma one or whatever it is.

Khell is definitely correct - the wording on the agenda is as follows:

Quote

All systems that contain either an alpha or beta wormhole are adjacent to each other.


So you can't use a Gamma wormhole to travel to an alpha or beta wormhole.

:o

I mean unless Morgoth has some truly exceptional luck I'm going to win comfortably.

And yes the move you posted is invalid.


Well, action cards might get involved. I'm playing one on your turn, and Morgoth quite possibly will, too. Anyone else who has one they can play probably should, too.

You can play action cards in a combat you aren't involved in?? Mind blown, I thought they all specified your ships

I'm officially intrigued as to what action card you think you can play, by my understanding of the rules you can't play any which will impact me.

There are a small number of them that don't specifically say "your ships"

I can't see which card you think will make an impact, but I live in dread.

I am not all that surprised I have to say, being out-stalled by IH (nasty AC that). I thought had a comfortable buffer for the late leadership play, alas.

Look, this is my fault for being busy with other things, so I understand perfectly well if it isn't possible. But had I been here I would have played Coup D'etat on D'rek's leadership play in order to try and force IH to pass too.

In other news, Spanish weddings are great fun! I ended up drinking home made wine and grappa all night and yet the GF was the one to get truly hungover the day after.

Guess that'll be Blend's call to make.

As much as I'd like for that to have happened as I don't want IH to easily get another 2 VP and win, IMO there was a literal month of me saying I would stall Leadership and doing so... if you were sitting on Coup d'Etat that whole time and never once sent Blend a PM in that whole month saying something like "Well, if I somehow get stalled out and have to pass but IH hasn't passed when Leadership gets played I'll play Coup d'Etat on it" there's not much reason to let it be added in after the fact. Blend has been great with provisionals and implementing even vague instructions for away people, but you have to be the one to set that up, and it's not like you didn't know you were going away to the wedding beforehand.

I had 2 more stalls before I needed to pass anyway, so it would not have made a difference. I have to say my favourite part about the muaat so far is how good they are at stalling.

I haven't travelled in so long, it felt wonderful exploring someplace different again.

Agree with this, and I said the same thing (though not as eloquently) to Morgoth in his PM with the same question. Sorry, Morgoth, I will not allow an addition to a turn almost a week after I've resolved it.

Will wait for Tatts to finish posting his turn before I do another map update.

Tatts - according to the Game Thread you ended your last turn at 1/4/1. When you added 6 CTs (4/1/1) it should put you at 5/5/2 rather than the 4/5/2 you currently have in your most recent post. Please be sure your CT counts are correct when you're finishing up your turn.

I think that's a result of him having originally posted a tactical action and so subtracted one of his tactical tokens, before he edited his post to remove the tactical action (as it wasn't valid).
