I mean he should have only taken 1 damage, as he never actually reached the other CRIT-damaged sections.

But he did. That's why he's dead.

If only you had raised this concern sooner, he might have lived.
But it isn't our concern to point out your mistakes. Especially if they're beneficial to us.

With all due respect, that's a self centered and unsportsmanlike attitude. But it's irrelevant, because I didn't say that was your concern. It's my concern to correct my mistakes and not my concern how that impacts players negatively or positively. mastahcheese moved three spaces through critically damaged areas. It's too late to correct the movement but it's not too late to correct the damage he would have had to have taken to fix the bridge like that. If you had mentioned the mistake on his action that led to that oversight on my part, he would have only taken 1 damage and could still be alive. That's your concern.

I wholly disagree with your stance, but because it isn't relevant to my decision, I won't argue with you about it.

That's fine, and I may have sounded very negative in my response, in for that I apologize. The fact remains that if those hull sections were damaged, mastah wouldn't have been able to move through them in the first place. Also - I thought my nano-repair had fixed that. If I had repaired the hull sections with that before mastah had moved through them, then why did he take damage?

Move to Bridge. Fire lasers at Ship 1. I can do this since no one else is on the ship right?

Nano-repair requires a functioning bridge. Mastahcheese moved to the bridge to repair it so you could play that card, remember? He had to move through those damaged areas to allow you to repair the whole ship. So his sacrifice was not in vain, I just couldn't have fixed that without rolling the whole game back three turns and that seemed a fair compromise.

You'd have to pass me to get to the Bridge, so nope, you can't. Also, I don't think it's your turn.

Honestly, I'm ok with being dead, particularly since it means that our ship is still operating.

Yeah, it's not your turn. It should say Dark Drake, I think, since we took control of their ship. Otherwise, since we were the original crew, then that's why it says that.

I'd like to add this on top of my previous action:

I'll give Redshirt dive!, Repair brigade and Plasma grenade to TopHat

You cannot give, you have to trade.

Play Redshirt. Swap my Force field for Deathsword plasma grenade. If the Thunderbird's shields go down, swap my Escape pod for his redshirt dive as well and teleport over. If not, keep the escape pod and teleport over to the Emperor's Fire.
Once on board an enemy ship (whichever one):
Photon grenade the person I can reach with the most Redshirts. If I can kill anybody with my fire brigade, do so, otherwise play it on the aforementioned.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Use Redshirt 1 & 2, then play Strafing run and EMP on the Thunderbird.

Lt-Cmdr. Deathsword moves into Engineering, taking one damage from the critically damaged section, and uses Repair lvl 3 to fully repair it. He then trades Plasma grenade to TopHat for Force field.
Cmdr. TopHat plays a Redshirt and teleports to the Emperor's Fire. He materializes in the front hull and takes one damage for entering the critically damaged area.
Cpt. WhitiusOpus plays two Redshirts and plays a Strafing run and EMP on the Thunderbird. Two laser shots hit the shield.

Turn 24: S.S. Juke

                                
                                    
σ        σ        σ        σ 
               
                             


Spoiler: S.S. Juke (ship 3) (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Thunderbird (ship 4) (click to show/hide)

After this game I'm definitely amending the teleport rules so you can't do anything at all after teleporting, because the if-then-elses are getting ridiculous. You're not programming your turns, here.
