No retreat.
Yes, surrender.
OK. Successful planetary invasion. Cardassians gain 1 Culture for a successful invasion.
One command left.
Thanks Federation!
Final Command will be to commission a starbase on Cardassia Prime. and also convert all ascendecy tokens to complete 5 ascendency.

Note that I’ve put some double-sized ship markers on Ferenginar and Cardassia Prime - each of those represents five individual ships. (Fleet markers still apply as before.)
Card 2: Federation (@Canadian_Errant)
I think you’ve put the Cardassian ones on Bajor rather than Cardassia Prime?
Bah! Thank you. Will fix.

Good eye, thank you! Plus the starbase.

Congratulations, I didn’t realize you were that close.
Build Phase:
- Disband Fleet 1
- Build 12 ships in Regulus V and Commission them as Fleets 1 and 2.
- Built 10 ships at Earth and 5 more ships at Regulus V
- Use all 18 research to improve Weapons and Shields each by 1.
Movement Phase:
C1-5: Take 2 of 3 fleets to Ferenginar and begin combat.
C6 Begin combat with Ferengi ship at Regulus V
C7 begin combat with Ferengi ship at Earth
I would have taken all three fleets to Ferenginar but losing that starbase means i lose a command, If I understand things correctly.
(If I’m wrong, and I retain that 7th command for this turn, then all 3 fleets go to Ferenginar and begin combat- and the Ferengi ships at Earth and Regulus V remain unengaged)
I am shocked by this sudden betrayal!
You’re actually on six total commands (starbase #1 has been captured, #2 is still in your service, #3 is not yet built, no command bonuses from advancement), so which one do you want to drop?
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Meanwhile, I assume the battle at Ferenginar is still happening:
Federation Fleet 1+2: 12 ships, reroll 1s, weapons 2+, shields 3
Ferengi: 21 ships plus starbase, weapons 3+, shields 1
Fed hit on 3+: pool 12d6: 2× 1, 3× 2, 3× 3, 3× 4, 5
Ferengi hit on 6+: pool 22d6: 4× 1, 5× 2, 5× 3, 3× 4, 2× 5, 3× 6
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Fed rerolls: pool 2d6: 2, 6
8 hits from the Fed; 13 Ferengi ships remain (plus starbase).
3 hits from the Ferengi: assuming they’re concentrated in a single Fed fleet. 9 Fed ships remain.
@Canadian_Errant do you wish to retreat?
If not, @RossM do you wish to retreat?
(If Fed wants to hegemonise, that’s another thing competing for their final Command.)
I don’t wish to retreat. If I succeed in defeating the Ferengi then I will indeed try to hegemonize.
(Honestly @RogerBW should have kept quiet on the hegemony 
)
Ferengis not retreating yet.
