Thanks, didn't think to check the PoK rules reference as SOs have been around since before PoK.

It's the same text/rule in the older versions of the rules reference, just different paragraph numbering because of the stuff that was added in PoK.

IH and Tapper - please be sure to let me know when you've added your exploration resolutions to your most recent turns so I don't miss them!

Done!

[Morgoth]

I already miss my Eidolons

[Morgoth]

.. or, I guess it was the Distant Suns ability of the Naaz-Rokha technically. But still, they were too beautiful for this world.

[Imperial Historian]

Wow d'rek this is a monstrous turn 1

Being this close to each other, IH. I would hope we can agree to trade commodities as the opportunity arises. The same applies to you, tatts. I have no wish to spend resources fighting either of you.

Yeah definitely.

[Morgoth]

I worry a great deal about D’rek hanging out in the corner growing fat on trade while we all fight amongst ourselves.

Lol this is technically true. Care to buy the ability to build your own for the low low price of 10TG? Hey you have that! It's a match made in heaven.

I'm sure people will recognise this and act accordingly. Hacan trading is most valuable on this first turn when people lack neighbors.

Yeah, it's good while it lasts but it ain't gonna last once everyone neighbours up. Plus 3 factions with only 2 commodities in the game so less trading overall.

It's why you should buddy up to me as well as IH. Me especially since we are oooh so close. We can both be fat and happy.

[D'rek]

@IH and Tapper - I'm about to play POLITICS. Let's talk Speaker, I have an offer:

• I make Tapper Speaker
  
• I get first choice of strategy card for next round (it will be TECH).
  
• IH pays me 2 TG and promises not to pick my choice of strategy card next round.
  
• Tapper pays me 2 TG (or gives me his trade PN) and promises not to pick mine or IH's choice of strategy card.

Benefit for you two is getting 2nd/3rd choice of SC next round, instead of being last and second-last pick.

What do you think?

[Imperial Historian]

I don't think there is a strategy card that I'd be willing to pay 2TG for I'm afraid, I would agree to not pick tech if you made tapper speaker.

[Imperial Historian]

I might be willing to trade a hazardous relic though.

Probably not worth it for me to do it for just 2TG from Tapper as this will probably make me last pick in round 3, but let's see what Tapper has to say first.

Well, you ask me to pay the same amount as IH while deferring 2 strategies instead of 1.
That's a bit of a head scratcher without compensation elsewhere, either from him to me or you to me.

Fair point. I will reconsider the price then. 1 TG from Tapper and 1 hazardous relic fragment from IH, the remaining terms the same. Is that palatable to you both?
