transfer 80 credits to FUNK

Thanks for your business

You're welcome!

(You're going to move off of planet R this turn, correct? I just realized I won't be able to pick up GF from the planet while I am forced to retreat.)

At Ava F'Tarq the forces of the Trondi and the Consortium have met. The Trondi hold fire, the Consortium do not. + 1 to the defender.
The Consortium have 180 points, the Trondi have 36. 83% vs 17%. +6 to the defender.
Roll: 4 + 6 + 1 = 11 Attacker takes 75% casualties, defender takes 10%.
The Trondi HH is scarred and forced to retreat - no Consortium casualties.

Ava F'Tarq has been conquered by the Consortium. The Steward has gone into hiding.

@BiggsIRL friend, there has been a misunderstanding the skies above Alberta. In his blood lust, Goon Captain Brett opened fire without realizing our standing orders against such barbaric actions. He has received a 5-minute major and a game misconduct, and will be considered a "healthy scratch" from the next game.

We offer our sincere apologies for this transgression and will be issuing new standing orders effective immediately.

Do you still have interest in visiting Toronto?

@Matt3412 brother, we have not forgotten our deal to swap Alberta for Brotein. Will you be inclined to make that transition this turn (6) or next (7)?

Have you fully conquered A yet??

Lol nmv

Give us 1 more turn to keep B

(Late last cycle)

"We're coming out of Hyperspace now, Commander." The Ensign at the cons was inexperienced, and seemed nervous. Sure, reports were that the Stewards had been defeated, and that the Consortium held the system capital. They were a rough group, certainly, but nominally allies of Tron'di's forces and loyal to the crown.

Commander Randal decided that this called for some reassurance. "All right crew, we're almost to the capital! Make this quick, get a look around at the status of the place, and we'll be on our way with a report to write for the Governor-General. The Consortium will be glad to see us, and send us on our way I'm sure."

The lines of stars settled into points as the Hammerhead jumped into the system. "We let them know we're coming, right?"

{And if the Consortium had rolled a 5 or better, they'd have gotten a victory point out of it... WAS IT TRULY AN ACCIDENT?}

Of course!

Sorry for any inconveniences this may have caused

Big words from a little man game master. Perhaps you would like to be in the receiving end of one of our kinetic kegs?

Name your system.

@BiggsIRL we would like to inform you of our scout which has been dispatched and will arrive to your territory next turn (turn 5)

@BiggsIRL this was delayed but will be arriving at P momentarily hopefully that is still ok

We are ready for you. Our scout will arrive one turn later in J.

The ground forces of the Fully Unprepared Novice Knaves, not knowing when they will see battle, spend their days playing Pazaak and Ping-Pong.

Processing. Please hold.

Turn 6 Hyperpings detected at: dsL, S, P, dsD, Z, O, R, E, B, dsA, C.

At planet C'Nada, the Mandalorians First Order attack the Consortium.
279 Mandalorian fleet vs 75 Consortium fleet.
78% vs 21% = -5 to the roll attacker advantage

Roll: 7 - 5 = 2 Outcome - Attacker takes 0 casualties, defender takes 75% (in this case, all squadrons destroyed, CR90B Scarred.

The Mandalorians invade C'Nada... 3 Mandalorian GFs destroyed in the occupation of the planet.

C'Nada is the Consortium Capital, so they cannot claim any victory points until such time as they reoccupy the planet (which is a pain, since they occupied Ava T'Farq for this entire turn...)

I have another battle to resolve, but I cannot do so because I cannot access the spreadsheet of @idjmv . Once I have access I can process that battle.

Turn Seven will be live once I complete that battle.

Thanks!

At planet Suomi, the 5th Sector Authority fleet engages the Nordic Beserkers.
164 5th Sector vs 198 Nordic Beserkers
45.3% vs 54.7% (no bonus to either side)
Roll: 9 - outcome: Attacker takes 40% casualties, defender takes 20%.

5th Sector lose a Quasar (and GFs on board). Defender loses 1 scarred GSD2.

The 5th Sector fleet is obliged to retreat.

Turn 7 is now live.

The turn 7 public objective is: I control 10 planets outside my Home System. 2VP.

Well that's certainly inconvenient.

@Matt3412 , if memory serves you have an agreement with the Mandos, right?

To all denizens of the F’Tarq sector:

As you now know, we have launched a major invasion of the Consortium capital. This was not an action borne of greed, but one of necessity. Our worlds are barren and lack the production for reasonable growth. Know that all allies of the Mandalorians remain allies, and we will only fight for them.

@Matt3412 We would like to offer the Syndicate the world of Toronto, should they be willing to conquer it. The Overcouncil hopes this communicates our enduring commitment to good relations, shared borders and mutual prosperity.

@BiggsIRL As per our treaty, we intend no aggression towards the Tron’di Irregulars for the duration of this game, and hold no objection to your possession of Ava’ F’Tarq.

@idjmv We will dispatch military aid at the first reasonable opportunity.

@GhostofNobodyInParticular The Mandalorian Overcouncil, First Order wishes to negotiate a nonaggression pact with the Governmental Ghosts of Gnippia, as we are neighbors.

@FortyInRed You have our sincere apologies. We know you cannot accept this outcome, and we cannot afford to surrender your world. The only outcome we see ahead is war, and we shall do our utmost to win it.

We appreciate your support, and will reward you handsomely if we survive this.

Be advised, we expect the Consortium to hit us with everything they have this coming turn. We will likely begin sending our first units turn 7.

You are correct, knave. Had you wanted credits, all you had to do was ask.

Now, you will find a bounty on your head (ironic, no?).

HEAR THIS: I AM GLAD TO PAY A BOUNTY FOR DEAD MANDALORIANS.

For those who care to help me liberate my capital, you will be handsomely rewarded.

Furthermore this bounty will exist beyond the glorious retaking of my capital. Kill a Mando, get paid. It's that simple.

We have the credits to cover.

We do not need credits, and will match this offer.

A bounty of equal size will be placed on all Consortium forces, excluding those over Planet T.

That is correct

@GhostofNobodyInParticular @Bertie Wooster

So I don't have the Industrial capacity to continue suffering losses like i just did, My fleet will continue to press where it can but I may be forced to withdraw soon

We trust that you have no interest in war with us?

Could we convince you to join our bounty hunt? "Money for Mandos" has a nice ring to it...
