    The OverMind is outraged that broadcasts of The Real Housewives of Quann have been interrupted and demands that someone restore the vid-feed at once!

    No Sabotage.

    Alright then, select Bureaucracy(8)

    Fingers crossed this isn't ending the game.

    Since there were two Bonus Counters on the Bureaucracy Strategy Card, two Objectives are turned over from the top of the deck:

    [1 VP] I now spend 4 Trade Goods, 3 resources, and 3 influence.
    [2 VP] I have 5 Technology Advances of the same color.

    There are 4 Stage II Objectives remaining in the Objective Deck. It's now Yin's turn for Strategy Card selection.

    Before we end the Strategy Phase, Creuss has conditional orders to play an Action Card. Any other players who want to play a card during the phase should declare so now; once all teams have declared or declined we'll resolve any plays.

    In this case, I think we just roll to see which 0 goes first.

    Creuss'll go before the Naalu, since they have a lower-numbered card. If that answer doesn't satisfy you, then there's also the fact that they have the Speaker token to consider in case that's what you were thinking.

    Once we hear from the Yin, I think we'll be ready to move on to the Action Phase.

    Oh, that's a way better resolution than rolling.

    No sabotage

    BUT I wish to play this:

    First Strike
    You may take your first action of the Action Phase before the player with the lowest initiative number. Then resume order of play as normal.
    Play: Immediately after the Strategy Phase.


    That's right I'M going first!

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    I'm gonna assume that nobody but Creuss will be interested in any kind of Sabotage given Creuss' own Action Card, so only Creuss will need to chime in for a sabotage call here. Once that's done, I believe we'll be ready to move on to the Action Phase.

    Just want to mention that Yin does not get another go this turn. Just in case there's any misunderstanding about First Strike. It's not in the official FAQ or anything.

    Ah, interesting. I see how that's a valid interpretation. However, we've already had a play of First Strike in the previous round, and I ruled it as basically giving a free initial action, so that's how the card will be played in this case as well for fairness.
