Finished our first successful run of gunboat, making a few tweaks and going again!
Gunboat Rules v4:
-
No talking, negotiating, whispering, communicating of any kind. Talking about unrelated things, sending memes without the intention of influencing other players’ gameplay is acceptable.
-
only transaction requests as implemented by the bot are allowed. Other favors like borrowing systems and moving about will have to be quid pro quo and taken on faith rather than explicitly communicated.
-
YOU CAN NOT SEND TRANSACTION REQUESTS ON YOUR TURN. You may send any transaction requests after your turn right before ending your turn if you’d like, or any other time. But no transaction request can be sent and accepted and used in the same turn. EG if you want to buy a frag to finish your set for 3 tg, you can’t request to buy it on your turn and then purge for a relic on the same turn. You will need to send the request and have them accept it on their turn. The reason for this is so that nobody is sitting on their turn waiting for negotiations to go through or fail with someone else. On your turn, you can do nothing but accept/decline transaction requests, and take your turn
-
When trade is played, trade holder has a right to give simple x-y terms for following trade in the trade thread, and people can follow as per a usual game.
-
During Agenda phase, players may make as many transaction offers as are normally allowed, but must press no whens/afters and take their turn voting without delay.
-
Projection of power victory: control planets in 2 different home systems other than your own home system. This victory condition scores like a PO that is always available, and follows the regular PO requirements (must have your own HS, will be scored in order during status phase)
