    Surprise!

    Give Elvenshae my promissory note as I'm a fish of my word

    Activate Sakulag / Lazar system

    Play Flank Speed-After you activate a system: Apply +1 to the move value of each of your ships during the tactical action.

    Chance for people to sabotage before I declare which ships are moving

    Move in the carrier with two ground forces from Wellon
    Move in the carrier and Dreadnaught with two fighters and a ground force from Abyz/Fria

    And as it wasn't actually my turn earlier:
    Confirm the deal with Hedgethorn and give him my two remaining commodities as part of a non binding agreement that he gives me one trade good on my turn


    @mrbody is it easier if we on you conditions for retreat and card use and so on and you roll?

    Otherwise, I have no pre combat action cards
    @Elvenshae for any precombat stuff

    The only problem I have with one of the players rolling is it might not give the other player a chance to make announcements or lay out orders first.

    So @Elvenshae @Mojo_Jojo for retreat conditions, card plays.

    Sorry - my infantry has to stay behind. I forgot cruisers don't get capacity until upgraded.

    Also by my reading of the rules you can't load troops onto ships while retreating

    Yay about bloody time I hit something. Not having fingers makes accurately firing laser cannons very tricky indeed.

    I'm not sure I have any idea whose ships are where anymore. So this may not be the smartest move. But oh well.

    Technology Phase.
    Research PDS 2.
    Exhaust Nestphar, Resculon, and Gral for 6 resources.
    Research Plasma Scoring.

    @Mojo_Jojo @Elvenshae @MrBlarney @Brody @Preda for secondaries.

    Would you be interested in buying 5 votes in the upcoming Agenda phase in exchange for 1 commodity, as it appears you have 3 and there's a refresh coming up soon?

    I don't think those commodities should be there, elvenshae. Didn't somebody(possibly you actually) have and use hedgethorn's trade agreement card last turn?

    Spend a token to take the secondary
    Use racial ability to take the primary instead
    Exhaust Abyz, Wellon and Nar for six resources
    Research gravity drive
    Research space dock II


    @Elvenshae you can cash my racial in for either of those if you like

    @Hedgethorn could I have my trade good now that it's your turn, please?

    Also, as we both have PDS2 now and you've got a couple of units sat in my field of fire shall we both agree not to take pot shots at one other with our space cannons?

    @MrBody Mojo is right, I shouldn't have three commodities right now. I'm quite certain they were given away some time ago.

    @Mojo_Jojo : I thought the agreement was I give you one trade good back in exchange for refreshing commodities. Or am I mis-remembering?

    Edit: I won't shoot you so long as you let my ships pass unmolested.

    Oh. Then, nevermind. I thought I took Hedge's commodities a long time ago, and that those were new commodities.

    I'll hold on to the Jol-Nar promissory note. I've got one of those and the other is of limited benefit at the moment.

    Pass on tech secondary.

    @Hedgethorn I thought we'd agreed to do the exchange at the earliest opportunity and then I'd just give you the refresh when the card happened.

    Your way makes more sense as it condenses the whole thing into two transactions which is lower risk

    PLAY on the secondary (SP 1 --> 0), exhausting [0.0.0] (5R) to gain racial unit upgrade Super-Dreadnought II.

    @Mojo_Jojo, since I've finally spent my SP token, you can use my racial promissory note without any worry of repercussions on my status.
