@Tapper - Clearly Twelve is attacking me on his next turn to finish off his CT set. Can I have your War Funding PN for the battle? Might help me score at least a little bit of damage against him. If he doesn't end up attacking me I'll give it right back to you.

Have no fears or I guess plenty of fears. My next few actions are going to depend a lot on you and how much you are willing to pay me off so you and I both have a shot this game.

I have no friends some of it my fault for having zero social skills but some of it yours by actively working the table against me and encroaching on my boarders. So if I have to spend the game fighting off 4+ other players and I cant make friends that means I need must remove enemies. Your greed and antagonism have left you vulnerable and if no one wants to be my friend I need must eliminate enemies. How much to not take your homeworld next round? Like you said all those trade goods don't do you any good if you cant spend them. I'll take 12 minus any dreads that I destroy to not go that route. Or keep that wealth and have no way to spend it for a could rounds and guarantee losing the game.

Also note all my fleet building leaves me with not even the biggest threat on the board as the Baroney has a scarier fleet and he has been able to tech while I have not and the Cabal well they are just plain scary. Your better play was to build me up to send me at them. Still not too late to do that.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Is there going to be dread on dread action?

Good way to spend your TG's D'rek, Flagship and double dread.


If I had a way to build I would...


Imagine if economic equality came out in the agenda phase



...


If you want to mitigate the risk of all those lost TG D'rek, you could buy Warsuns :)

Nah, I'm kidding :) But they're still pretty good agendas!

In hindsight, the smarter play when I played politics in round 1 would have been to put both cards back on top no matter what they were, to reduce the odds of EcoEquality coming up / know for sure it wouldn't if you put both agendas back on top.

You would think such a mercantile faction as mine would already be aware of these merchant stations sitting undiscovered a stone's throw away from my planets...

Also Twelve: "How dare you encroach on my oversized borders?!"

You want to make a try for my home system? Bring it.

So I didn't define a limit on our mutual commodity swap pact, but now you've gained a frankly ridiculous 25 commodities this round, I'm calling a limit I can't in good conscience continue to swap your commodities for the single TG you gave me. Sorry but you'd be yelling at me to stop trading with you if you were anyone else.

Sorry but you'd be yelling at me to stop trading with you if you were anyone else. I'll still swap them out, but I want an additional TG.
