You want to ally with me and put that recycle in? I can get rid of my impact if I draw it. Impact seems like the least bad bad card, though, so no worries if you want to save your recycle.

This early in the game, I would actually prefer trying to garner as much information about all players as possible. Having a known decent card, known bad card, and a random card in my hand is better in my mind than a known bad card and two random cards in my hand. We can save my Recycle for when we really need it.

That said, if you want me to toss it in now, I can.

I have no useful cards left right now, so I'd prefer not to be anyone's ally right now.

If nobody has an energy to throw we can play a Hull Breach, while we have the energy to fix it.

Just to clarify, nimby can only use the energy in front of him to fix a hull breach when it's his turn to play. Other players can't use his energy for him. Since nothing happened, I'm perfectly happy to rewind a little and let nimby use the energy for other things.

I will also re-emphasize the refresh ability that everyone has: pay one energy to discard a card then draw a card. I had forgotten to copy it to the OP when I copied the other abilities.

Sure, but unless I misread your description Hull Breach didn't trigger until my turn, and if nimby doesn't fix it on his turn we'll just shove him out an airlock.

That is correct. But nimby's turn is 5 turns from now. That's about one third of the game, and plenty of time for one of the three Discharge cards to show up :v: .

Whelp, nobody else was offering any better plays, so that's the plan I'm going with.

Bump and clarification that Some Numbers is my official ally choice.

Yes, I had indeed missed that part :v:. I messaged Some Numbers but, as previously, I'm not going to push to move the game faster, for now. I'll start doing that once the holidays are truly gone.

Yeah, I dunno why, in my files I saved you as a second Researcher. This shall be fixed post-haste.

Since my ability currently doesn't seem useful (I'm sure it will be later, though) I will use the energy I drew to get the Hull Breach half fixed, then end my turn.

I have Impact and Air Lock. I don't think I'm a good ally choice currently.

I'm a poor choice of ally. Probably not the worst, but there's (I hope) definitely better available.

I've got good things I can toss in there. Some energy, some recycling. You know, all the important things.

rydiafan
Mar 17, 2009


There's almost certainly an Energy in the command deck currently, fwiw. We've drawn exactly what we put in every time, and that's far more likely if in actuality we we're pulling a different energy card from what we put in at least once.

Shadow225
Jan 2, 2007




General, how would you feel about throwing the energy in the pot so that we can fix the hull breach this turn?

The General

Absolutely. I feel like holes in the ship are bad.

The cards that came out of the command pile are:

Energy
Impact

Shadow225 may choose whether to tank the Impact, and if and how to use the Energy. Reminder that taking damage removes your abilities (so Hull Breach is the only thing you can still use it for).

Shadow225
Jan 2, 2007




Hmmm. My recycle didn't pop up. Weird.

I don't want to tank the damage since I can do that exactly twice and there are other ways to take damage, and we have margin of error still, so let's lose a cell.

Then I will accrue the energy.

At the end of the turn, I will use the energy to patch up the hull breach before a Discharge pops out.
