@A Half Eaten OreoCreuss friends, your racial promissory note would be most helpful in reaching the slimy Yssaril and exacting revenge for targeting us with their Mageon Implants. Would you be interested in being made Speaker in exchange for your racial promissory? We would ask that you please not select the strategy we desire, but that would still give you second pick rather than last.

We were about to ask what could we do in exchange for a voice in Mecatol Rex. We feel confident in our ceasefire to grant you access to our warp technology. Confirm promissory for speaker (if that's a thing I can do here).
Just to be sure, there's only 1 extra wormhole of each type, correct? So Letnev would be moving the "beta wormhole" I'll place this turn.

Actually, I'm more interested in moving that Alpha wormhole token you placed in Arnor-Lor - only Alpha access gets me to Yssaril. If you need to move back through there at all I can delay moving the wormhole until it's good for you.

It will depend a little bit on how the rest of this round plays out and what new objective comes up, so I can't say for sure. Most likely either the usual Tech or Leadership, but hard to say which right now.

But that wasn't an end of the world card loss, so we could potentially be mollified a bit. Not sure how long we can wait before committing though.

Just to pop in here with a clarification, there are two separate wormhole tokens, one of each type. If you look on the map, you can see in the upper left, near the Creuss Home System, the Beta Wormhole token that has not yet been placed on the board.

The notes seem pretty poorly balanced overall. A bunch of races just get notes that are terrible for them to give out like Arborec, some are amazing like Jol-Nar, a lot are pretty meh.

They have to be considered against everything else specific to each race. L1z1x gets a weak promissory and minimal commodities because they get a good starting planet, amazing racial tech, a very good flagship and very useful inherent racial abilities.

We were about to ask what could we do in exchange for a voice in Mecatol Rex. We feel confident in our ceasefire to grant you access to our warp technology. Confirm promissory for speaker (if that's a thing I can do here).
Just to be sure, there's only 1 extra wormhole of each type, correct? So Letnev would be moving the "beta wormhole" I'll place this turn.
Actually, I'm more interested in moving that Alpha wormhole token you placed in Arnor-Lor - only Alpha access gets me to Yssaril. If you need to move back through there at all I can delay moving the wormhole until it's good for you.
Ah yeah I was just looking at the map wrong, i don't really mind which one you move. Just wanted to make sure there's only the 2.

@A Half Eaten Oreo
@El Skid for possible reaction. @Phyphor for action.
Creuss has 1 Dreadnought for bombardment.
Geth roll 1d10t5 for Creuss Bombardment
Creuss lands 1 Infantry on Wellon.
Yes.
Everyone can also use the D wormhole the Cruess’ carrier produces on the Cruess turn as well, interestingly
Yeah you need the Light/wave deflector, but if you have it you can go straight to my home planet.
Good thing I don't want to pick on you anyway
Well, it would annoy you by having your placement overridden. Look at my note, it just moves 1 CC around
Activate Arnor/Lor. Move in everything from alpha wormhole. Bombard & land 1 on each
@A Half Eaten Oreo for reactions
They have to be considered against everything else specific to each race. L1z1x gets a weak promissory and minimal commodities because they get a good starting planet, amazing racial tech, a very good flagship and very useful inherent racial abilities.
True, but it would be totally blank if I don’t research the generator.
No reactions also.
