  • Assussanni (Romulan)
  • MIGHTYSploosh (Cardassian)

Ah! Right!

834

Klingon Empire bids 1 Production.

(I think the Ferengi have the win, and I doubt there’s anything I can do to stop it… but at least I tried!)

835

Klingons are only two culture off winning and I’m the threat?

Ferengi bid 2

You are also 2 Culture away from winning… or 9 Production, whichever is easier… and you don’t have packs of wolves coming after you for some reason, whereas everyone has abandoned my trade deals. PLUS you don’t have the Federation blowing up your ships.

I think you got this! Not a complaint, you’ve played a good game.

No bid from the Romulans. @MIGHTYSploosh to bid, either 0 or 4 available.

841

0 is fine.

842

Turn order is set.

Round 9:
Card 1: Ferengi (@RossM)

843

Pay one research to complete tech.

Pay 2 production to exhaust both the Klingons military techs.

(For my own purposes: when do the Techs that he just exhausted “refresh”? Like, will my Disrupters work on my turn again, or after my turn, or not until next turn?)

845

Everything that’s exhausted refreshes in the recharge phase at the end of the round.

So not until next turn. Oof.

Okay! That’s fine. I can… hmmm. Well. Hmmm. That’s definitely a thing that happened.

Hmmm.

Also, I just noticed @Delwayne bod highest for turn order but I’m going first.

I think Vulcans are going to make a dash for an objective at the end of this turn

848

Spend 10 production to build 15 ships at Ferenginar.

End of build phase

849

Ship at Rog Moves to dakalar
Ship at cardassia moves it Izar

(Commands used)

Reasearch whisper your way to success

Ships at badlands and singularity cluster both brave the hazards. If successful add one production and research to whisper your way to success

@RogerBW asked for a die roll:

  • C1-C2 move
  • C3-C4 move
  • C5 Initiate research
  • C6 ship at Badlands: H4 + Shields 1 = destroyed on 5+, d6: 1
  • C7 ship at Singularity Cluster: H3 + Shields 1 = destroyed on 4+, d6: 4
