Khell are wanting me to use my agent for 1 tg? Let me know before you pop politics.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

Actually it’s alright, I can’t do what I thought I could with it anyway.

I’m going to wait for the outcome of my previous action before posting my next one. In the meantime, anyone interested in a cultural relic fragment for 2 TG?

Mallice is his to take too though, now that he controls the wormhole.


How does mallice work? Khell could activate it and move in with his cruiser or destroyer which would flip it right? But he couldn't move in eg his dreadnought from lodor because movement is simultaneous and it flips after his move?

The wormhole nexus tile flips at the end of the movement step. So you can only move in ships through the gamma wormhole in the first tactical action.

I would like to buy your fragment on my next turn.

To that end, when you're using a PN in your turn, please post the PN text in your game post or let me know in your game PN so that I don't miss it. I'm trying to really stay on top of moving PNs from and to people's hands (and moving action cards to the discard pile) as it's something I've been historically bad at.

Prophet's tears looks like an interesting relic! Gives you a lot of tech path flexibility.

Khell you captured the ship does that mean you can research carrier 2s or am I missing something?

Yes:

Yeah, not highest possible tier, but I'm happy with this, opens up some interesting possibilities.

Which would you rate higher? I thought it was one of the top relics early game.

I think you only end up using Prophet's Tears for the tech skip once or twice, most likely, and the rest for 1 action card per round. So by comparison Scepter of Emelpar could be used for a free POLITICS secondary giving you twice as many action cards every round. Dynamis Core probably averages 3~4 TG per round. Nano-Forge at least 2 resources per round, twice that if you can expect to use Diplomacy or Bio-stims on the planet. JR-XS455-0's build without placing a CT is almost invaluable, plus it's a stall.

I'd rate all of those ones at least a little bit over Prophet's Tears.

I hadn't considered that the agent doesn't place a CT, that's better than I thought. All the new relics definitely seem a step up in power!

Yup. Given what he said earlier I'm surprised he didn't have a "if Tatts plays Leadership, play Politics" provisional in. But perhaps with his fragment selling he has something else up his sleeve after all.
