Aye you have, and I am happy to reach my chitinous tendrils through Evarra, rather than MR. We can make that work I think.

Okay sounds good. I'll have to let drek make her counteroffer as she has already expressed interest but I can see that working too. We are unlikely to be neighbors until round 2 anyway.

Man, figuring out the ideal tech path for Sardakk is hard. I don't want to chose between the Exotrireme II and Particle Weave, but I don't see a way to manage both. It really is cruel, placing the two faction techs so wide apart, especially when I don't start with any. And I want fighter II, GF II and Carrier II too!

AI development surely helps with that goal?

[Morgoth]

aye, that one is a necessity, but which others? I go back and forth a lot.

Apologies for not posting over the weekend, was an unexpectedly active weekend and the game slipped from my mind. I really don't want to choose Construction when I have my pick of all the strategy cards, but I'm going to do the smart/dumb thing.

[Tattersail_]

Usually trade, warfare and leadership are popular. I think the construction objective will be achievable down the line. Do what's best for your long term goals.

You're right, though Construction is also attractive because of my dimensional tear space docks. This is hard and it's only the first decision!

[Tattersail_]

Have you given thought to boundaries? What do you make of Cormund? What are your thoughts on an alliance swap?

[Morgoth]

to be fair, outside of the Saar, your faction benefit more than most from building space docks. All that movement!

I have not thought about boundaries but I am happy to take Cormund, though we can always negotiate for it later on down the line if you want it. As for alliances, the same. My initial feeling is to take alliances/SftT swaps a little slower this game and see what churns out.

I think when you are a massive, many limbed monstrosity from a different dimension, you should put quite some thought into boundries.

Funny, that's exactly why I was thinking I didn't need to pay attention to boundaries.

This isn't Tokyo, Khell.

Translation, I want to attack you and take some ships off you before we swap any alliances.

Translation: I want to keep that option open for now, but not that I necessarily WILL do that.

[Khellendros]

You might notice, for example, that I have abilities which take ships peacefully as well as militaristically. So I'm not completely bloodthirsty

I did think our commanders would work well together, but I'd be less likely to enter an alliance if I feel attacked
