    Except it didn't work because jamski's fleet was gone due to the antispy? In which case it would be the sweetest burn of all time on Ljube's part

    Hmm, well it was something like that. I get the sense that this is a backfired backstab attempt.

    Did you take his bases while he was gone?

    They told me nothing. Spy against Jamski was pure waste. It was clear he was going to use one of his anti-spy devices.

    And I was not allied with anyone.

    Hmm. Nuclear clearly knows what's going on, and you don't. Interesting.

    Well, at least you didn't attack me. Because I was telling the truth when I said I wasn't using a shield this round.

    Just to fill you in Jaguar (and anyone else confused), Lord Nuclear and I agreed to attack Jamski, Lord Nuclear betrayed me and attacked me and took my bases (I can only hope someone else attacked me too). Ljube and I both ended out attacking Jamski's undefended bases (seperately), so I guess we are going to see who wins his (Jamski's) bases.

    Actually, Ljube (as far as I'm reading) wasn't allied to either of them; so the difference is that LN isn't attacking with sparrow against Ljube, not that LN is keeping sparrow from sharing bases with him. I think, it's very hard to follow

    Not sure, this is only the second time I have been betrayed (the first person doesn't play any more )

    OK, since I'm going down and in an attempt to prevent attrition of Jamski's fleet and if my bases are not attacked, I'm giving my three bases to Jamski.

    I love it

    I'm definitely going to try that with my allies in the future. (Although i'm not sure they all believe in JEBUS ... wonder what that does to oaths sworn on it ... )

    Fortunately, he loses 10% regardless, since you can't send new orders in now.

    I'd vote that is not allowed at this point, as orders are already in. You may give them next round, i'd think, but not during turn results posting!!

    They are simply added to Jamski and subtracted from me. There is a precedent for it and I'll show it for you if you insist. Tomorrow though, I'm too tired to dig it up now.

    I have to hand it to Nuclear. He's arranged some ubercomplicated backstab so complex that everyone else combined still hasn't figured it out.

    Precedent or not, it's not right. Orders are amendable until the GM begins processing them, and at that point they are complete. Otherwise the order in which he processes them is highly relevant to the result; let's say the identical thing happens with LN, but he is the last person processed, and so I am unable to give him some bases before Smiley calculates the 10% loss from attrition.

    Not even a Professor of Cunning at Cunning State University could figure it out.

    Base gifting is not part of the orders. It occurs after the turn and is proclaimed in the thread.
