[Azthor]

Considering your actions in recent times, we would be grateful to accept such an alliance. Furthermore, if you have any requests of us, we will try to provide for them.

Also Usec, I do think revising it so that a unit needs a point of attack for an ace to benefit from it (And same with defence). And speaking of defence, maybe it would be worthwhile to make it a 1d2 per point or something? Anything to make defence more... useful.

Attack is actually 1dX, where X = 2/point;

[sjm9876]

Also, I appear to have forgotten by own rules. Since the Terran Empire had several times more combat power than you, all of your Units in that battle were destroyed. Sorry about that....

The orders remain the same - any that are impossible.

Whose turns are we missing now?

-snip-

In the interest of fairness (and not having two players get knocked out of the game within two turns), I've decided that the Ace bonuses to attack/defence only apply if the Unit they're piloting has some attack or defence. So AASI-Alpha would be completely destroyed if it attacked L2, since the Millepatte it's flying has no attack or defence. Sorry (though you could easily send some other Units to attack the Moon next turn).

I hold that is not at all fair, as unit bonuses have been distinctly separated from ace bonuses, as per your analysis on hot-blooded, and had that been the case at the time of deployment, I could and would easily have loaded a SP-Arrow with the ace into the Millepatte. I do, however, have little choice but to abide, if that is your judgement.

You don't have to tell me that I'm flip-flopping all over the place here. I'm just trying to keep as many players in the game for as long as possible. Besides, this ruling is hardly an amazing reversal. Greatwyrm just has another turn to not die horribly, that's all.

On the same account that evilcherry  was allowed to retroactively change his turn on a mistake, all the more should I be allowed to retroactively load that SP-Arrow, as the situation has transpired by factors entirely outside my control and ability to influence.

Alas, it is the following that is the true concern of mine: far be it from only delaying GWG's demise by a turn, this sudden change effectively allows other players to send Lune reinforcements, as I'd then be suddenly unable to prevent deployment in Lune.; that is, in and of itself, an amazing reversal.

I did, after all, give forethought to detail that neither of them could receive any reinforcements I could not wipe out immediately. With this, that is entirely jeopardized. That I might lose 10 RP and 10 Production on delaying a player's demise is largely manageable, that his demise may suddenly become entirely avoidable is another altogether.

[USEC_OFFICER]

On the same account that evilcherry  was allowed to retroactively change his turn on a mistake, all the more should I be allowed to retroactively load that SP-Arrow, as the situation has transpired by factors entirely outside my control and ability to influence.

Ugh... Fine. Which SP-Arrow do you want to load into the Millepatte? It's not like GreatWyrm can receive any reinforcements though. Your (completely useless) Millepatte is still blocking access to the Moon, so nobody can deploy Units in any of his provinces this turn.

[Taricus]

Eh, one SP-arrow is fine. Fact is it doesn't change where the ace is holed up (AKA the millepate)

[Azthor]

Thank you, assume whichever SP-Arrow is of your preference to have been loaded with the ace, as it will have no discernible difference. If you'd rather I just pick it, let's go with one of E8's.

As for the matter of deployment: due to GWG's charge, the blockade would be temporarily removed for the next turn. Lune would then be unblocked, and while I'd move my prototype to reestablish the blockade, due to the specific ruling that units deployed through a field that then becomes blockaded still get deployed, the reinforcements would arrive in GWG's pool. The units' deployment would, in fact, coincide with the prototype's move into one of Lune's provinces, enabling me to counter it; alas, depending on the number of units available, the deployment could be spread across two provinces, effectively assuring one of them would happen.

That said, if you'd really rather GWG not be faced this turn, reinforcements impeded, I can delay the attack one turn for the same purpose.

Fall of the Earth Defence League!

The last remnants of the Earth Defence League have surrendered to the reborn Terran Empire, after several weeks of guerrilla warfare... With the collapse of the Earth Defence League, many of the former territories have returned to the Terran Empire...

Oceanus Procellarum Stormed!

Crack Terran troopers suddenly descended on Oceanus Procellarum yesterday, as the climax of a fierce two-day battle between Terran forces and Rebel troopers... Despite being heavily outnumbered, the Terran forces fought bravely and destroyed most of the Rebel ships... The famous rebel Ace, Carl Anderson, was wounded during the fighting and has reportedly been transferred to the Imbrium Military Hospital... (73 vs. 20)

Worker Protests Turn Sour

The general strike in Avaylan was forcibly dispersed by police yesterday, after several factories were broken into and vandalized by disgruntled workers... A spokesperson for the strikers, who wished to stay anonymous, said, "The response from the Avaylan Police Forces was indiscriminate and brutal..." Similar strikes have been hed in the Republic of Progress, the Katauvan Dominate and most regions of the moon, due to massive layoffs from recent advances in automation technology...

Dominate alludes to certain war with Venus!
The dominate has recently released a public communique stating their ow claim upon the IVS's newly new colony on mercury. Dominion officials stated that unless the IVS withdraws troops from the region, that military action is inevitable. With the newly-refitted factories starting production of the improved Python fighters, and the Prestigious second fleet en-rout to establish Dominate authority upon Mercury, it's considered a matter of time for the IVS to either give up it's colony, or it's independence.

Tottington will never stoop to such low levels as Firing upon a helpless or retreating Foe, nor will he ever engage in such underhanded tactics as deceit and trickery, never mind betrayal. He commands the HMS Gloria, the refurbished original settler ship and prize of the Group, with exquisite poise and accuracy, treating battle as a one would a formal dance. He values his ship greatly for its history, and will go to extreme measures to save those in need. He greatly enjoys camomile tea and potentially dangerous tinkering, which he takes to with refined, joyful interest. His favourite possessions are his stovepipe hat and matching goggles, and his limited edition copy of the Gentleman's Code.
