Trotsky's turn:

Uh... i forgot to ask... can worms or any units without the marine trait attack directly from the sea, but with a penalty, or can they not attack before landing at all?

I'm mixing up my civ-games here

A worm cannot attack from the sea but a sealurk can without any penalty if my recollection is correct and a spore launcher can bombard

[Leon Trotsky]

Would a mindworm disembarking upon a fungus tile spend only one third of its movement? If so, that would be quite scary, since they don't suffer from haste.

[SebP]

Oh... trotsky, drow, what is your opinion on the Empath Guild? The issue is not really decided yet

[Flubber]

2168 to sebp

My recollection is that disembarking uses up a full movement regardless of the tile type. Its like disembarking a rover onto a flat road tile. You have 1 movement point left, not 1 and 2/3

Ya drow commented but realy gave no opinion while trotsky hasn't weighed in at all that I have seen.

So far its 3 votes against on the EG but if I read this right, both sebp and I would switch to a yes if anyone claims they have acted in ways to try to obtain the EG

I really don't know. What is the argument for banning the Empath Guild, the auto infiltration or the extra votes? The Cloudbase Academy is a gamebreaker (not that it whoever has it is invulnerable, but it is VERY powerful), but I am not sure about the EG.

That would be a good rule of thumb. I am certain a rover disembarking on fungus or rocky tiles only spend one movement.

For me its the autoinfiltration-- and the lessened need to go out and meet people-- I like the probe game and the exploration game and it just seems against those aspects of the game that a player gets comm links and infiltration as easy as that.

It does seem like the CBA is out since no one has argued otherwise yet

[Leon Trotsky]

How stupid of me - I didn't take into account that the auto infiltration gave instant commlinks for every faction. Now I see why some ban this project; being able to play tech broker with no effort put into exploration and years before other players make contact may be considered abusive. I have to think about this one.

That's right.

Trotsky: I don't have any arguments against the EG, though i understand Flubber's arguments. So my vote is not really a "out, unless someone expected it in" but more a "I don't care, unless someone expected it in". This results to the same though. If either you or drow want it in, it's in. If not, it's out by flubbers preference of NOT having it in (and all the others don't cares).

The way i see it, the CBA is out with 3 clear votes (mid, trosky, myself) and i can't imagine anyone will claim he has taken strong measures specifically to be able to build it already.

2168 sent to drow

[Mid]

PM to Trotsky.

Thanks

The PEG is always a decision since going up that tech line delays getting to eco eng etc etc... I never am sure which is the best way to go
