    Normally, this might be where we have a Sabotage call / decline, but it's a relatively small card, early in the game, and only MrBody and discrider have Action Cards to possibly counter. I'm happy to require declarations if someone requests it, however.

    I started to agree with that, but then I looked at the map again and Sol is faaaaaar. It's too early in the game to have to dedicate all resources to traversing that distance.

    Sure, but I have to encourage all divisive actions on principal, no matter how impractical the revenge might be.

    @A Half Eaten Oreo it only costs a token from your reserves, not one of your tokens that are distributed to tactics, fleet or strategy. You'll get the token back at the end of the round, so there's no real cost to retreating and it could prevent the virus from stealing a tech.

    In retrospect it was probably the correct move to buy action cards instead of just throwing away a token for no reason.

    This was a very fortuitous draw of action cards for this particular round.

    And one that I was initially very disappointed with - there are a lot of cards I would have rather drawn.

    25% of all Action Cards are those that can be played as an Action. So that's an approximately 6% chance of drawing two such cards from a single Politics pull (accounting for drawing without replacement).

    The card play will be resolved pending any response from discrider.
