    It was 1 TG!

    I mean, yes, paying the extortion demand was a decision point leading up to that situation.
    So I guess I have to amend that to 'I had to use my sabotage to prevent total economic collapse and deny an extortioner 4 TG'

    @MrBlarney for the bombardment then.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Jol-Nar has 1 Dreadnought for bombardment.

    Geth roll 1d10t5 for Jol-Nar bombardment

    Jol-Nar bombardment:
    1d10t5 1 [1d10t5=8]

    1 hit scored; Sol destroys 1 Infantry. X-89 Bacterial Weapon destroys 10 additional Sol Infantry.

    Geth roll 11d10t5 for Sol Gen Synthesis

    Sol Gen Synthesis:
    11d10t5 9 [11d10t5=3, 10, 7, 7, 8, 8, 7, 10, 5, 1, 7]

    @MrBody in case there's an action card to prevent that.

    nope

    1 hit scored; Sol destroys 1 Infantry. X-89 Bacterial Weapon destroys 10 additional Sol Infantry.

    Geth roll 11d10t5 for Sol Gen Synthesis

    While I hate to say no to 9 free infantry, I don't think Gen Synthesis is in the game. Isn't that a 3rd edition tech? As far as I know, it got rolled into the Infantry II/Spec Ops II tech, which I do not own.

    Ah, yeah. That's another misrecall on my end, I thought you had upgraded Infantry for some reason. But to answer your question, Gen Synthesis is also listed on the Infantry II tech card, so it's a useful shorthand for the regeneration ability.

    In any case, with Jol-Nar controlling Jord, any regenerated Infantry is lost due to not having a place for them. Action is on you, @MrBody.

    I hope everyone starts taking Jol-Nar as a threat. They have 1 tech objective guaranteed, and you can count on there being at least one stage II tech objective for another free 2 VP for them, bringing them just 1 below me. They're taking Mecatol this round, and will have Warsuns (that you just gave them to TG to build) with lightwave+gravity+bacteria next round that can obliterate half the other homeworlds just from their homeworld. I'm not going to be scoring VP anytime soon, won't have Mecatol anymore, and don't have the infantry to threaten much anymore.

    @MrBlarney could a carrier leaving the system with my flagship pick up and carry the infantry "inside" the flagship?

    MrBlarney: could a carrier leaving the system with my flagship pick up and carry the infantry "inside" the flagship?
    Yes. Infantry and Fighters are only associated with specific transport ships as they move; outside of that, they're just in "space" and need a general level of capacity support to stay there. So you can move an Infantry in space with a Carrier just as well as if you were loading them from a planet.

    Taking MR and trying to keep it would make me a sitting duck for Nekro. No thanks.

    I am however open to being paid by someone else to use a single ship to clear MR and allow them to invade more easily.

    A sitting duck for what? Losing your super far forward staging areas adjacent to Creuss and Nekro homeworlds? Nekro isn't in a position right now to even get within two systems of your homeworld.

    Jol-Nar has the technology, the economy, the units, and the mobility to get away with pretty much anything at this point. On top being a sure bet that they have a future free 3 VP sitting in the objective deck.

    I have...what? Not an economy. Not an invasion force. Not a Mecatol VP farm. Not even basic objectives until the end of next round.

    Nekro's fleet at Tequ'ran reaches MR in a single move and I would not win that battle.

    Honestly, Nekro's firepower is the best on the board right now by a wide margin and even more so when you consider how easily they acquire technology and that it can take effect in the same battle they acquire it. Phyphor has just as strong a shot as I do if they decide to play to win instead of just for revenge. They park that fleet on MR and nobody else here is knocking them off anytime soon.

    And you lose one round of gaining VPs. You'll likely still be in the lead when you begin scoring again. Hopefully this slowed things down a little and made it a more open game.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    There's still the possibility that every turn in Level II objectives pulls the Game Ends card right?

    Yeah, I was just waiting for Phyphor to get me his choices for the Agenda card draw before passing secondary play cards out and posting a game state update. I have that now (both cards to the bottom of the deck), but I have errands to run. So it'll be another hour or so before I get back and can run all of that red tape. The management thanks you for your patience.
