Oh my goodness.
Am I last Again!!!

Oh wait did you check the space lane dice for temporal anomaly? I might have got a command back.
Oh wait sorry I only just noticed my ship blew up, apologies. They were a rubbish ship anyway.
I’ve heard the Federation are slow but steady. Also I have heard they are puny weaklings.
Build Phase:
Command Phase
2&3) one ship alread in Vulcan goes to warp heading SSW, trying to link up with Mazar
4&5) the Science Halitra explores to the South-East, if a gap can be found.
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
d3+1: 3
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Link-up successful.
Exploration:
Space lane: d3+1: 4
System: Sherman’s Planet (PPO-3)
Exploration: Menthar Booby Trap (pay 2 Research or H3)
Since this is the Science Halitra, if you don’t pay, each ship will face H3 twice and take the better result.
@Canadian_Errant did you want to call in that favour to claim the planet we are both orbiting?
I won’t pay, I’ll do the dice.
Yes, I’ll claim the planet and the favour.
Roger, do I have commands left or am I out? (I’m confused by the Vulcan’s lack of starbases)
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Three ships of Science Halitra face Hazard 3; each is destroyed if both rolls are 3+.
pool 2d6: 1, 6
pool 2d6: 2, 6
pool 2d6: 1, 5
No ships are lost.
That’s all five Commands; the main way you get more is by Advancements.
Card 6: Federation (@RossM)
One research into Orbital laboratories.
End of build phase.
Command Phase
Science fleet enters warp exits warp at new system linked to subspace anomaly. (2 commands)
Roger Roger. (I swear that’s the last time)
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Space lane: d3+1: 3
System: Lursen Prime (P-2)
Exploration: Where No One Has Gone Before (empty system)
Question: are the Vulcans not bound by the rule about the maximum number of incomplete research projects being no more than the number of research nodes they control [14.1.1]? They appear to have three projects on the go whilst only having two research nodes.
Ooh, good point – I think I was counting the node at Straleb Madena as theirs. There’s no research on Long Range Listening Posts, so I’ll cancel it. @Canadian_Errant
