@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Space lane length: d3+1: 2
System: Beta XII-A (RR-3)
Exploration: Warp-Capable: Level One
You gain one Culture (Fed special rule for a “Civilization” card).
Being the Fed, you can’t invade. You may attempt Hegemony; this would cost you one Culture to try and another if you succeed. Odds would be d6 + 1 (your Ascendancy) + 1 (Universal Translator) to exceed 2 (tokens + structures on system), so you would automatically succeed.
(Do it!!!)
C4: Hegemony with Beta XII-A

Costs you two Culture total, drops a Control Node on the planet.
Final command?
C5: Put a Ship Into warp (to be continued)
I assume that’s one of the ships from Earth; tell me if I’m wrong.
Next player is Card 8, Klingon (@Marx).
@Marx asked for a die roll:
Okay, let’s do this!

Command Phase
- Command 1: Initiate “Militarized Industry”
- Command 2: Ship at Qronos enters Warp
- Command 3: Ship at Qronos explores along board edge “north”

Exploration: Diplomatic Summit: You may immediately exchange Trade Agreements with any of your Rivals, even those with whom you have not made contact.
Once you’ve done that, two commands left.
@Marx asked for a die roll:
Very well! We extend our Production 3 agreement towards the weak and puny Federation in exchange for their far-less-valuable 3-Production agreement, we offer our 2-Production agreement to the Vulcans for their worthless Research agreement, and our 1-Trade agreement o the Romulans for their 1-Trade agreement.
Let us know if you accept GLORY through our offer, or if you are a patak.
- Command 4: Ship at Qronos enters Warp
- Command 5: Ship at Qronos explores along the board edge “south”
– Warp Lane Length:d3+1: 3
Federation accepts the most generous, polite, and friendly overture from the Klingons.

System: Terra Nova (PRC-4)
Exploration: Cardassian Armistice Accords: If you have a Cardassian Rival, you both choose one of your non-Home Systems and exchange Control Nodes. If not, exchange Systems with the player to your right.
(Neither you nor the Cardassians has any non-Home systems, so I think this has no effect.)
I’ll leave the Vulcan and Romulan diplomacy pending for now (ping @Delwayne, @Assussanni) and move on to Card 9, Romulan (@Assussanni).

Vulcans has a culture for 2p, or the one production for 1p, trade agreements. Cardassians already have the research one.
Aha, thanks, I missed that in the overnight messages. Fixing the master game state.
Should I wait until trade negotiations conclude or am I good to start my turn now?
Go for it, but feel free to pause and say “I want to see what you guys do about trade before I commit myself further”.
Romulan Build Phase
Build 2 ships at Romulus (-2p).
End build phase: 1p, 3r, 3c.
Romulan Command Phase
Command 1: begin new Advancement Project: Imperial Science Initiative.
Command 2: form 4 ships into Mining Fleet (fleet #3).
