Oh, I was under the impression that a space dock was just supposed to be in a system, not aligned with a single planet. It WAS supposed to be on Arretze. I’ll move it next time my turn comes up. Also, pretend that I built two more fighters along with that carrier, I’ll post them when I move the dock. If that’s ok with you guys.

I’ll take my turn tomorrow (23rd) late morning or early afternoon. I have to share the computer with my wife and daughter and, sadly, I can’t run vassal from my iPad. That would be awesome

When I played the political card I forgot to look at the top three cards and discard two to the bOttom of the deck. When my turn comes around again, does anyone mind if I do this?

As far as I can see, Hacan’s only move is to activate Diplomacy. Shall we just make his move for him?

I will use the secondary ability, refreshing Bereg and Lirta IV.

I’ll include that in my next action, after L1z1X has a chance take his turn.

Just a quick, diplomatic message from the emirates of Hacan to the noble Sardek N’Orr. We chose you with our diplomacy action not because we are concerned about our people’s meeting in battle, but for two logical reasons. 1) you are the farthest inhabited system from our concerns, therefore reducing the likelyhood of us coming into direct contact anyway. And 2) Your honorable species is the only world with which the Hacan do not currently have a trade agreement, unfortunately. We are sure you understand that this is not a slight upon your people in any way, just making the best of a necessary but untenable situation.

Ooc: I Had to activate the card to pass the round, no offense meant.

I assume you meant 4/4/2 as your final CCTAP.

I will take my turn tonight. (I’ll be activating Warfare, if anyone wants to plan ahead.)

OOC: I pretty much figured that was the case. 🙂

Snick…snick…We take no offense from your actions and look forward to trading with you in the future when your trading partners decide that trade is less important than their desire for conquest. snick snick…
