Ok
Good point. Put them in tactics
I completed the same objective as everyone else: Expanded Borders.
I’ll put both Command Tokens in Tactics, please and thank you!
Not everyone, ahem.
I will put both tokens in tactics.
I will also activate my Secret Objective: Destroy Heretical Works.
On various planets, we kept finding these ancient golden tablets (they only worked with 3g or something), inscribed in Reformed Lazax; the information seemed unknowable, but our AI experts were up to the task! (They said they ran it through their newest and most advanced algorithm, something only known by the codename “Google Translate”) Unfortunately, the tablets just said stuff like
"The Xxcha are great, we (are less than three) the Xxcha, -Lazarro the Lazy, Lazax Emperor LXII
Which is obviously bad and wrong, and was subsequently burned (it made a lot of black smoke, but nobody’s gonna complain about a bit of extra smog on that big grey landfill of a planet).
Now that we’ve cleared up that confusion, it’s pretty clear who has the resolve to rule this Galaxy!
Purge both relic fragments
Okay, I think we are ready for the Agenda Phase! We have a VERY interesting first Agenda!
Discuss among yourselves. Make deals among yourselves… etc.
Here are the votes available and the order in which they are cast:
Captbnut 2+1+1+2+1+3+1=11 (also has Quash)
Marx 3+2+0+1+1+2+2=11
COMaestro 2+2+0+2+1+0+2+3+0=12
MIGHTYSploosh 2+1+1+2+4+1+0=11
GabrielH 1+2+3+3+2+6=17
GeeBizzle 2+4+1+1=8 (also has Predictive Intelligence)
This is the Quash Ability and The Predictive Intelligence cards
first to vote is @Marx and goes clockwise around the table. Players might want to PM each other to gather their votes.
Marx 3+2+0+1+1+2+2=11
COMaestro 2+2+0+2+1+0+2+3+0=12
MIGHTYSploosh 2+1+1+2+4+1+0=11
GabrielH 1+2+3+3+2+6=17
GeeBizzle 2+4+1+1=8 (also has Predictive Intelligence)
Captbnut 2+1+1+2+1+3+1=11 (also has Quash)
Oi!
It’s gloves off time!
So this is definitely not me voting, I think the Yssaril are a solid choice for this due to the number of Action cards they have and the 2nd highest number of votes.
The other, more selfish, recommendation would be the Xxcha Kingdoms, but only because it would make me Speaker. I’m not married to that idea.
I am happy to be offered… political lubricant of various forms… to direct my votes towards/away from my worthy opponents?
We object to this automatic persecution of our species!
Look, just because your species are all thieves and liars doesn’t mean ALL your people are…
Actually, scratch that. It’s exactly what that means. But the Titans of Ul are not racist! Some of our closest allies are Yssaril… or they could be for the right price…
And just a reminder to everyone: if you have Rider cards, you must play them before anyone starts voting.
Since I start the voting, I’ll wait until the end of the day (or so) before starting, but make sure you announce you are going to use them before I cast that first vote.
We will remember this insult…
At this time my voting power is limited even with my card power to save losing it right now I’ll refrain from using it unless anyone has any offers or proposals.
Happy to intersperse some diplomacy with my piracy.
Without knowing this game I think this is pretty harsh this early when no one has fought anyone else.
Does a faction have to be selected, or can we vote this down?
We must elect someone. If we all abstain, the Speaker breaks the tie and must select someone.
Who has the least to lose?
Being in last place I’m keen to be slightly more antagonistic (I.e. mean)
