    This is where space faring species stop being polite, and start getting REAL.

    Considering the amount of conflict in the previous round, it's pretty safe to say that we are well out of the early game and nice and situated in the midgame. It's also fairly certain that the Winnu watching over Mecatol Rex are not too pleased about the new criterion for selecting a new galactic ruler.

    All other players should either play or pass on the Warfare secondary. If order of play matters, we will start with the L1z1x and move around the board clockwise.

    The cruiser and carrier are needed elsewhere, so I wanted to move the least expensive ship there to block any 2 movement ships from coming through.

    @GrimmyTOA and @caliber, you're up for the Jol-Nar turn.

    We are studying the matter presently and hope to have a move up shortly. Apologies for the delay.

  • GrimmyTOAGrimmyTOA Registered User regular
    Incidentally, we have this leadership strategy card sitting around. We'd likely be open to friendly inducements as to the timing of its play... Just saying.

    Unfortunately, I have nothing to offer but my snaky space-luv.

    The universities spend a Command Counter to perform a tactical action. We activate Jol/Nar, and build two PDS units (exhausting Nar, Rigel III, and using our bonus production from Sarween Tools). We place one PDS on Jol, and one on Nar.

    We apologize for the delay, and would like to register our shock (shock, I say!) that no bribes were forthcoming. I don't know what kind of galaxy you want to live in.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Minor, but correctable error: PDS units may only be produced on the planet with the Space Dock, but since you have a Carrier in the system, you are allowed to pick up the PDS on Nar, drop it on Jol, and then build two on Nar.

    The L1z1x are up for their turn.

    Err. Yes. Thanks.

  • MrBodyMrBody Registered User regular
    Why do I get the feeling L1z1x chose Diplomacy specifically so it couldn't block them.

    @Kilnaga and @Iron Weasel, it's currently your turn to act.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Also, I just realized that the Jol-Nar resources expended was only 3R, and 2 PDS cost 4 resources. Could I get a correction on that?

    4463rwiq7r47.png
  • GrimmyTOAGrimmyTOA Registered User regular
    We get two from Jol, one from Rigel, and one from the Sarween Tools tech. As I understand it.

    Jol only has a resource value of 1. I missed that as well, I admit.

    Erp. I must have meant Nar then. Sorry. I'll amend the order.

    I bet Jol Nar cheats on their term papers too.

    The L1z1x plays Diplomacy II - Primary Ability: Demilitarized Zone on the Faunus System
    a) Choose one system containing a planet you control. Each opponent must place one of his Command Counters into the system from his reinforcements.

    Order of play on this secondary matters, what with only one neutral planet left to be claimed by the secondary.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Yep. Tar'mann is the only planet that can be claimed, and Creuss has first option before Muaat. No other player has any need to play on the secondary and so will be considered to have automatically passed.

    Creuss passes on secondary, it's all yours if you want it Muaat
