Twelve they don't have to be your ships.

You can use that for so many things:

Let 2 people destroy each other fleets

Free a system of a huge fleet so that you can move in (important planet, mecatol, your home system after you lost, other home systems)

Move your ships out of an activated system, so that you can move again afterwards (like a warfare with +1 movement, that lets you fight 3 times in a round with your fleet)

Move someones huge fleet away from you

Move someones fleet into a grav well

Move someones fleet into a system where they already have tactic token

Mind control the Yin flagship to blow something up

Circumvent a ceasefire

Sell all of the above uses to other players


I also didn't realise this. Wow!

Tapper/Khell/Twelve any interest in a free refresh? I'd accept 1TG when we neighbor or the agenda phase opens


Some interest yes, but I’d need someone to exchange commodities with.

What he said.
if D'rek offers an equal swap, then sure - but she might not if the profit is yours.

I'd also be interested if you stall and play Trade when we neighbour so I can immediately trade the commodities to you and get 1 TG in return.


I will swap out your commodities for free, Tapper, if you {a} sell me your faction PN for 1 TG now so I can use it defensively in Loki/Ash/Ab and Twelve can't buy it when he invariably attacks there, plus {b} you don't swap out or trade for Twelve's commodities for him.

Twelve, will you be refreshing and if so, would you like to exchange commodities?


Khell, I will upgrade your commodities for free if you promise not to upgrade/trade for Twelve's commodities (including using your agent).

Condition B is fine, condition A is acceptable if you agree to return the PN during the Agenda Phase or after Twelve passes, whichever happens first.


If I don't use it, you mean? Do I get my TG back in that case?

Well, you could see the PN as (adding to) the reason for not getting into a combat in the first place... :) besides, you gave as your reason for buying that you don't want Twelve to be able to buy it - and you'll have achieved that aim.


Well it seems like I won't need the PN after all, but I'll still hold to the rest of the offer.

And you know it's your turn, right? (IH's turn isn't super clear, but it is a component action, he doesn't still have anything to add)


Sorry hopefully it's a bit clearer now.

I was a bit meh on my agent initially, but it's actually incredibly good!

Yup, better! You should list your strategy card and fix the URL in your banner though. ^_^

I really like the Muaat Agent. Stall and build-on-the-move, it's great! It's kinda like you also start with Sling Relay but for your war suns and twice the build limit. Not very sellable to other players, but as Muaat you don't really need to sell.

I've just realised that URL banners are a thing. Neat!

Yeah it's pretty great. I'm assuming both builds have to be in the same system? My initial thought was I could build in two places with it, but now I don't think that's possible.

@Blend the infantry is on the wrong planet in the map update, though.

No. They are two separate cards, and all the "ready _____" effects only ready the planet card but not the legendary ability card.

How viable is a Sardakk yellow tech path with Scanlink + Sarween into Transit Diodes to Integrated Economy and just building on the frontier planets? Means you have a dread where you need them, when you need them and you hardly require other ships or any structure, really.
