Star Trek Ascendancy game 3

Fun times. Explore is what I had in mind. If Capella moves so that it is up near Excaliba and Deneb V does a space lane of length 4 + a system fit approximately southwards?

Edit: if not, I guess just fit it as best you can, with Capella as far towards 3 o’clock as possible.

Something like this?

Actually, is it possible to position Capella such that a 2 length space lane could connect to Goralis in future? If not, then what you’ve got is fine (and exactly what I asked for to begin with… sorry!).

I think that’s the end of my turn, and mercifully the Borg have already acted this round. Phew.







Just about, yes. Done.

Final turn this round:
Card 7: Cardassian (@MIGHTYSploosh)

Diplomatic Cable

To All Polities,

the Federation Council is alarmed by the news that the Borg have arrived. We will be forming several battle fleets in order to combat this universal threat.

We stand together against this menace.

Build: 1 research on Labor Camps card. Colonize Izar. Build a production and research node on Izar. Then build 1 ship on Cardassia Prime.

End of build: 0p 0r 2c

C1/2: ship at Bajor in/out warps to Izar.

The build looks good. But getting a ship from Bajor to Izar will take three commands: in, add warp token, out.

Sorry, I mean straight there through a new space lane.

@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
OK, that might well work. Let’s see.

d3+1: 3

Thank you. Great!

C3/4: now 1 ship from cardassia prime moves to Bajor

C5: I will add the project: Gravitic Mine Fields.

And that is the end of my spiel.
