Star Trek Ascendancy game 3

No one. The turn cards now get handed out.
All the turn order cards (drawn from a shuffled deck of ten. Number of players plus one). The person who won the bid gets to choose one card and the rest is handed to the second winner of the bid. Remembering that card #1 or least is going first! Then, all the rest of the non chosen cards are randomly given to rest of players (last unknown goes to Borg). So whoever chooses first should know all the turn cards to be used for the upcoming round. He can tell us what card number is next to play.

(Thanks for explaining!)

In this case since I’m being a pure moderator I can just call up the next player when each turn is over.

First choice sent to RossM. (Yes, there’s a list in the guts of the game state file with each player’s card draw thread.)

(I assume I’m allowed to declare I’ve chosen the lowest number?)

You are.

Depending on how much information you want to leak, you could start taking your turn before the Federation have chosen their card and the others have been assigned.

(I will wait)

All cards distributed; go ahead and play.

All done. For future reference, it makes my life easier if you use the fleet name or something else that’s on the actual card.

Ok. Spend a command to launch a fleet from Ferenginar north (Bending badlands down in order for it to fit.)

(No cost to enter warp.)

@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Space lane: d3+1: 4
System: Regulus V (RO-4)
Exploration: Where No One Has Gone Before

Do the same again, as due west as possible please

(Command 2)

@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Space lane: d3+1: 2
System: Neutron Star (H3 Phenomenon-3)
Ships lost on 3+: pool 3d6: 1, 3, 5

One ship survives; you get the Research. (To the project?)

Complete the project please!

Are there three ships at Ferenginar still?

That’s what I have here. (They don’t show up terrible well…)
