    Sure, but you do still need some amount of forces to pick up objectives. Getting my fourth one seems next to impossible.

    As is me getting 3 more objectives before Orks/Eldar get one more or the time runs out.

    If any non-Eldar players don't want the Eldar to win, I suggest moving the warpstorm to block him from 2D.

    Warpstorms? You try to stop us with Warpstorms? Warp has no secret for us, and it will never be an obstacle...

    Move warpstorm from 1A/2A to 2A/2B.

    Reading BGG I found out that Warp Storm should be errated and read "Instead of revealing an order during the Operations Phase, you may discard this card to take any of your units from 1 area and place them on any 1 friendly or uncontrolled area." - https://boardgamegeek.com/article/19790177#19790177

    God damn it, my first order was supposed to go in 2B (aka the one place I have units). Coordinates are hard.

    Would moving my order be totally out of the question? It won't change the order of when it can be played since there's no other order there yet.

    @jakobagger, I think it is too late to change your order.

    Oh wow that Eldar Warp gate card can teleport to ANY empty/friendly space on the board? Up until now I just thought it was adjacent. Holy shit.

    I think his plan is teleporting to the empty 1B planet, then attacking the Orks there to clear a path to 1C.

    Not sure what his plans in 2B are though.

    Jesus christ I just remembered/realized that because I apparently forgot how movement works literally all my orders are going to be useless this turn. Good job, me. And congratulations to the Eldar probably.

    Actually, you are correct. You could not put an order on 3A, as there are no your units in adjacent sectors. But I guess the lesser evil will be to keep it there.

    If you only want to build one unit, you know Orks can do that with Dominate and get the system resources to boot?

    It bypasses the need for a factory too.
