Actually, it's indecision paralysis. Also, sudden work avalanche. If in 2-3 hours I haven't figured a thing out, I'll flip a coin about whom to attack.
Man.. I think it's safe to say I've never had such a feeling of uncertainty. I mean, my plans and plots fall apart all the time. But this. Hoo boy... I'm betting on only 1 person attacking the vegas. See if I can snag the 'destroy/blockade a SD' PO before getting overrun. Thanks for the reminder by the way, Lykouragh. I was all set for defence when you pointed out that VP
Ok, one step at a time, because this is important.
2 Tactical Actions using Fleet Logistics.
First - Spend CC from CP to Activate B Wormhole. Move in Dreadnought + Cruiser from Scary Door; plus the destroyer from Garbozia.
I'm really curious as to who you thought would be going for one of your space docks Mentak? I thought it was clear I was going to MR. Course I can't now so thanks for that.
I'm really curious as to who you thought would be going for one of your space docks Mentak? I thought it was clear I was going to MR. Course I can't now so thanks for that.
It's so relaxing to know that right now Space Stalin is ordering the execution of any officer that does not have an idea for how to resolve this situation.
I need to very briefly borrow one of your planets here. I'll be back out first thing next round and I'll be happy to pay some rent in TGs.
Activate Faunus. Move in carrier, 5 fighters, 1 GF, dreadnought, 3 cruisers from Industrex and destroyer from from Arinam/Meer. Take along the High Alert token. Drop GF on Faunus.
Then, using Fleet Logistics:
Activate Xxehan/Dal Bootha. Move in Carrier+2 fighters+GF and 2 dreadnoughts from Arinam/Meer. Drop GF on Xxehan.
Transfer action. I activate both Home system and Rigel system. Move a cruiser from HS to rigel and the dreadnought from rigel to HS. Than pick up the Mechanized and the PDS from Arretze and drop them on Kamdorn. Than produce in HS exausting everyting still good (6R) and spend 1 TG to Build a PDS and a Mechanized unit on Arretze and 2 fighter and a cruiser on Hercant.
I spend a Command Pool Counter to activate the Tiamat system and perform a Tactical Action.
Move in 2 Cruisers from HS.
