play passes to the Voyager, for encounter #12

I'll start by swapping VoyagerE with VoyagerC

And I'll regroup to B

Hey I'm playing my Wild Angler Flare before I forget to.
I'm any player and it's any phase right now.

Wild: You may name a specific card (e.g., attack 12, regular negotiate, or Virus flare). If any player has that card and chooses to give it to you, give him or her this flare. Otherwise, keep this flare and take one card at random from the hand of any player.
(As Any Player) (Any Phase)

Anyone happen to have the Tourist flare and want to trade it for my Angler flare?
If not, this might end up a regular occurrence ;)

Nope.

What a surprise!
I'll have one random card from Reactor's hand instead, if I'm reading this card text correctly.

Voyager swaps out Planet C with Planet E, and thus, gains a colony! And a ship wanders home to B.

Using a cosmic fishing rod, the Tourist steals something from the hoard of Voyager.

Destiny is Red(hazard). The last ship from the tourist ship vanishes. They were so hangover that they hanged over into......... THE FUTURE.

Launch phase!

stolen from the Reactors hoard pretty sure, Tourist has already done a number on mine.

I'll be honest I'm feeling a little drained after that last fight, wanna negotiate?

Sending 2 from VoyB 1 from VoyA, inviting Laser and Yin-Yang as insurance.

Oh, yeah, shoot, sorry. Negotiation is cool. I'll just invite the yin-yang.

Which planet do you aim at?

Queued invitations (invitees may reply once the target planet is chosen, or queue it in your QT):

1.Yin-yang: any
2. Laser: Offense only

Shit sorry ReacD

HYPERSPACE GATE
Offense: 3
Defense: ReactorD(5)

Invitations:
1.Yin-yang: any
2. Laser: Offense only

No no no what are you doing, Granola only needs one more colony to solo-win the game! If you try to negotiate he'll just stab you in back followed immediately by the face.

You mean one more colony AFTER getting a planet from this? Because it's to 5 colonies, I'm pretty sure.

CB's just annoyed at another negotiation. Besides, Jac stole all my attack cards so it's not like I could double-cross even if I wanted to. I mostly just wanna negotiate for that Tourist Flare

Reactor note, Voyager is at 4 colonies, as displayed on page 1. They had 3 colonies at the start of the encounter before they swapped a warp world.

oh

i mean i'd be up to card negotiations too

To think, I wasn't even going to win the game when you all turned on me, just get closer to it.
But nobody noticed this, oops!

Nobody's winning yet though don't worry.

2 from Voyager to... Voyager and 2 from Reactor to... Reactor, yeah.

that's... all? i guess. i get the feeling game will be over before we even get to my turn. :/

HYPERSPACE GATE
Offense: 3 + 2
Defense: ReactorD(5) + 2

How will the Laser decide?

I mean i am sure they'll send 0 ships but i have to ask.

Guys please, stop kingmaking for Granola...

Lasers decide to stay home and watch the battle on pay-per-view.

Time for playing cards, and/or interrupts.

Offense plays: 06
Defense plays: 08

HYPERSPACE GATE
Offense: 3 + 2 + 6 = 11
Defense: ReactorD(5) + 2 + 8 = 15

unless anyone interrupts, defense win!
1.3 voyager ships and 2 yin-yangs go to the warp
2.voyager may get 2 rewards due to yin-yang's power
3.yin-yang returns the 2 ships home, and gets 2 rewards
