Actually… no, lets do it.
commence battle… lets see what the dice says…
Vulcans:
Increase Shields.
Use Fleet 2.
Lets go in and out of warp to Hupyria.
Initiate space battle.
tactical, then initiate space battle.
if successful, initiate invasion.
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
OK, so that’s C1 fleet 2 enters warp, C2 fleet 2 leaves warp 2 short of Hupyria (where the Vulcan picket is) - given that you’re not going to take the Romulan homeworld whatever happens, so a game end is assured before the next Romulan turn, I’m going to assume that ship joins in the battle
Vulcan fleet 2 (9 ships, no special powers) + 1 ship, weapons 3+, shields 2, no relevant advancements
Romulan picket ship (1 ship), weapons 2+, shields 1, no relevant advancements
Vulcan: pool 10d6: 2, 6× 5, 3× 6 for 4+
Romulan: pool 1d6: 5 for 4+
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Vulcans wipe out Romulan picket, losing one ship.
C3 continued, tactical move into adjacent-to-Hupyria
end of C3, spare Vulcan ship can join fleet 2
C4 initiate space battle #2
Vulcan fleet 2 (9 ships, no special powers), weapons 3+, shields 2, no relevant advancements
Romulan fleet 2 (9 ships, no special powers) + 6 ships, weapons 2+, shields 1, no relevant advancements
Vulcan: pool 9d6: 2× 1, 2× 2, 2× 3, 2× 4, 6 for 4+
Romulan: pool 15d6: 7× 1, 2, 2× 4, 3× 5, 2× 6 for 4+
Vulcans destroy 3 ships leaving 12; Romulans destroy 7 ships leaving 2 (fleet 2 disperses).
@Delwayne Vulcan retreat?
If not, @Carletto80 Romulan retreat?
plus Starbase
Romulans do not retreat
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Agreed, pool d6: 6 for 4+
so that’s one Vulcan ship remaining after round 1 of the space battle.
It was a valiant effort, Vulcans! Possibly not entirely logical. But worth a try!
I’m not at my PC. I guess I can initiate Hegemony?
Oh. ONE round? Continue to the end.
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Vulcan: pool 1d6: 4 for 4+
Romulan: pool 13d6: 2× 3, 2× 4, 3× 5, 6× 6 for 4+
Two commands remain to the Vulcans.
Fleet 1 come out of warp at Weytahn. Initiate combat.
Eh. you can disregard. This was an attempt to enable the Klingons to share in the Victory with the Romulans but looks like not possible.
Vulcans concede.

OK I’m assuming @Lordof1 spends 10C on 2A…
Which leaves Romulans winning with 5A and 10 systems, Klingons second with 5A and 6 systems.
Thank you all for playing!
I shan’t start another game immediately but I certainly intend to run more.
