That's a challenging new objective.... especially for Morgoth!

If you loved me you would let me borrow your systems.

[Tattersail_]

Control the Borderlands -- 2VP -- Status Phase -- Have units in 5 systems on the edge of the game board other than your home system.

Does Mallice Count?

When using my Hero, I can move infantry and fighters from what I have found out, what's a stickler for people is systems that have the L1Z1X command token in it. Can I get a ruling on whether or not I can do this? If say A/M was activated, would my Hero permit the Dread and GF/Fighters to move?

[D'rek]

Oh yay, I drew the best action card of all, Confusing Legal Text. Anyone want to buy it for the low low low price of 1 TG? Saves you from future public executions (unless it gets sabotaged) and... nothing else!

[Imperial Historian]

I'm pretty sure confusing legal text should have been removed from the game as of POK and been replaced with confounding legal text.

It's a messy bit of the rules, for sure.

The Movement rules say you can only pick up units from systems that don't contain your CTs. But those are written mainly with tactical action movement in mind, even though though it applies to all cases of movement.

Retreat rules also use the above movement rules for moving units out of the system when they retreat, but they overwrite the CT-in-system rule so you can still retreat units out of an activated system.

Then there's a FAQ clarification that abilities like Skilled Retreat (and the L1Z1X commander) should can move units, answering yes.

But does that follow the original movement rules or is it like a retreat?

I don't think it's ever been officially clarified.

Nope, they are both included.

Perhaps you'll regret it later when you get elected for Public Execution

Took another look at the most recent LRR, and actually I think the transport rules are clearer than I thought:



95.3 now says "other than the active system" for movement outside of tactical actions. That permits the transport of units out of the active system for retreats even if it has a CT, and keeps things consistent with the other rules regardless of the FAQ clarification.

So that means the L1Z1X hero ability should follow these same rules without any conflict/inconsistency - when you move a ship with the L1Z1X hero you can't transport ground forces/fighters with that ship if the system has your CT in it (but if it doesn't have a CT, you can).

Thanks D'rek, that is similar to what I thought after looking it up. I just didn't want to produce any cool moves for others to deny this could happen. It certainly opens up that 2 VP objective for me but not sure I'd want to waste it on that if other options or available.

Tatts, unless something happens to change my mind between now and beginning of the strategy phase, I want to take Tech.

That's fine, I am just thinking of IH, with leadership he can stall out everyone, with Imperial he can score mec rex, and extra VP's. Not sure whether tech is really that important to you over these two conditions.

You and Twelve both go before IH, I'm sure you could do something about that too!

There are quite a few people picking before me!

[twelve]

I'd like Leadership. If its available I'm taking it

[Imperial Historian]

Tatts shall I give you 1TG for your racial now?

[Galactic Council]

Just missing votes from one person to complete agenda phase!

[Tattersail_]

Done. Sure IH. You can do. Or whenever

Blend I have 15 votes not that it changes anything

Oops, def missed Mallic! Will update now.

[Morgoth]

Hey Tapper, can I pay you 2 TG to make me speaker? I will leave you the strategy card of your choice of course.
