    Sol if you're smart, you can reach up to the fortress on the top right. Jol-nar can't defend it when she's busy with me.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    BobCesca gains 1 free unit from casualties and spends 4 Influence to retrieve the remaining two.

    Egos, you can take 2 free units from the casualties; would you like to spend Influence to retrieve any more?

    yeah I'll retrieve two as well, because of my stupidity

    Move all from 5->4

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Alegis moves 3 units from the Galactic Council to the Imperial Navy base and makes no deployments.

    vertroue is up for Maneuvering.

    Ugg well fine turtle. I want to deploy 2 units to Adminus Imperialis.

    Blood and Fire
  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    2 Influence is paid to BobCesca as per her racial ability (Jol-Nar Influence 2 --> 0, Hacan Influence 12 --> 14) Alegis deploys a free unit to the Galactic Council as per his racial ability.

    BobCesca is up for deployment, current map follows.

    No movement.

    Deploy 6 units in Imperial Intelligence HQ

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    BobCesca pays 3 Influence to the bank for her deployments. (Hacan Influence 14 --> 11) Alegis deploys a free unit to the Galactic Council as per his racial ability.

    Egos is up next for Maneuvering.

    Really... you're going to let vertroue win?

  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    Uhh BobCesca, you do realize that if I lose, which very well may be the case with traitor cards etc, the game is over? And that, with me engaging jolnar in the north where he has to commit his resources, the spot in the south is extremely easy to take?

  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    Egos you still have a shot.

    And phyphor, you could have engaged jol nar north-east as well so you have little to complain about. Now he only has to worry about me.

    Alegis on
  • PhyphorPhyphor Registered User regular
    9vs7 and he knows which cards I have? Yeah, I'm not going to win that

  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    He's going to move his units from the top stronghold to 'my stronghold'. Which means I lose.

    Which would have been avoided had you been there.

    edit: oh, he already had his deployment phase. Well he sure is confident. I wonder why

    Alegis on
  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    Besides you wouldn't have known for sure Phyphor. In raw strength you have the advantage.

    I might just remain in turtle mode just to be a jerk like you jerks.

  • PhyphorPhyphor Registered User regular
    Yeah... if vert had made that move first I'd have moved to the south stronghold because I could win a 9v2 fight, but I figured BobCesca would dump a bunch of troops there anyway because she could put 11 there

  • BobCescaBobCesca Registered User regular
    EDIT: Ok. yeah. I fucked up.

    Heh. I really, really don't. Against anyone else, maybe, but not someone who knows what weapons to use, what defenses to use and can pick and choose their cards

  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    Jol-nar only gives you information, it doesn't help if you don't have the cards. My power is the one that can actively block people from using whatever they have (and hence makes a devestating battle combination with Jol-Nar, although you'd have to spend your influence wisely). You also have +2 with your leader (his max is 5)

    Egos, you can still try to take the south.
    Red will probably try to take northwest, he has to get to safety anyways for the impending bombardment.

  • EgosEgos God Hand Registered User regular
    move the two I can move to Adminus Imperialis

  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    You're also allowed to deploy units to that zone, although it will cost you 2 influence per unit. Depending on your cards you might easily win without them, up to you. I'd say at least 1 wouldn't hurt so you can keep the zone for yourself.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    jakobagger, you're up for Maneuvering.

  • vertrouevertroue I am Female Fools.Registered User regular
    Omg...I only moved there because it is open...I also didnt think my navy base would count since the frikken turtles are being annoyingly turtlely there...Also if ANYONE wants to team up for the 4 point win we could do it.

    Blood and Fire
  • PhyphorPhyphor Registered User regular
    Oh god, accidental victory too?

  • vertrouevertroue I am Female Fools.Registered User regular
    And guys I guess so? The two times I have moved units somewhere was ONLY because the space was left open...If you guys hadn't noticed that is ALL I have done this game. I honestly thought I would be fighting a bit more hence all the units at Navy base but that got Shelled block by Alegis so at this point all I can do is go for the opportunities that you guys give me. However yet again, Egos and Jako, besides you two, the other guys can steal the victory into a solo one. If one of you two want to team up and win this, we could.


    Or and I am sure the 3 of you that have special wins want to do it solo style, but (I am sooo fishing here) again if you want to team up and win lets do it.

    Blood and Fire
  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    You can only form/break alliances when the cease fire card is drawn during the 'lay influence on the board' step

  • vertrouevertroue I am Female Fools.Registered User regular
    Right Why do you think I am saying this now? What is my special?

    Blood and Fire
  • AlegisAlegis Impeckable Registered User regular
    I thought you were presenting it as an option now. Because if you aren't stopped now, the game is over - doesn't matter what happens next turn.

    Round 3: Phase 5: Battle Phase

    Before we move into battles, Alegis, will you keep your tokens in the Imperial Navy Base face down, or will you flip them upwards?

    I have decided to remain in turtle mode.

    Round 3: Phase 5: Battle Phase

    Alright, then we have two battles to resolve: Sol vs. Lazax in the Imperial Palace and Jol-Nar vs. Letnev in Adminus Imperialis. We start with the Imperial Palace: Phyphor and jakobagger, I need your battle orders, including any conditionals depending on what is dialed or committed.

  • vertrouevertroue I am Female Fools.Registered User regular
    Again I though that the Navy base doesn't count since Alegis is there? So how can I win?

    Blood and Fire
  • PhyphorPhyphor Registered User regular
    His units don't count for control

  • vertrouevertroue I am Female Fools.Registered User regular
    Well then. Dur. ok so bring it 2 troupes down south!!

    Round 3: Phase 5: Battle Phase

    Phyphor reveals his initial committments of 10 units led by the Commander (Strength 2), playing no strategy cards. jakobagger reveals his initial commitments of 12 units led by the Chancellor (Strength 5), playing a defense card. Strategy cards are committed; no traitors are played.

    jakobagger reveals his Strategy card, it is a Magen Energy Shield. Total strength is 12 Sol, 17 Lazax; jakobagger wins the conflict. Phyphor moves his 11 units to the casualties; jakobagger moves 6 units and 3 mechanized units to casualties. jakobagger, will you keep your Magen Energy Shield or will you discard it?

    In the meantime, vertroue and Egos, prepare for your battle in Adminus Imperialis. vertroue, you may ask Egos to set one of his commitments (number of units, leader, attack card, or defense card) before both making your allotments.
