WAYS TO AVOID THE DREADED AUTO PASS ORDER:

-The best thing we have going for us, is that we're all very fast posters and these rules are going to be moot.
-Send in conditional moves to the GM, if you think there is a chance that you'll not be online 24 hours from your last post. Whe
any previous conditional orders well be deleted outright. Posting an order ON the board prior the the GM's posting of a conditio
any (and all conditional orders sent to the GM.)
-Post a note ON the board, notifying the group that you need a 6 to 24 hour extension. Every player can request as many exte
post such extension requests to the board. They CAN'T request multiple extensions at once. If the general consensus of the g
rule, then continual extensions may be disallowed (after like 10 extension requests)
Regarding AUTO PASS orders:
-If a player HAD sent any conditional orders to the GM, he'll reveiw those first to see if he can figure out a potential move to sub
-If the player hasn't played his strategy card, when the AUTO PASS would be instituted, an AUTO SC PLAY would be instituted
instituted afterward as normal. If a player still hasn't shown themselves after an AUTO SC PLAY was instituted, an AUTO PAS
Regarding the SCs in specific when they are AUTO Played:
Leadership: The primary would receive 3 CCs which would be placed +1/+1/+1, no additional CCs would be purchased with in
Diplomacy II: The option A would be chosen and placed on their HS.
Assembly: If they were the speaker, option B would be chosen this would be given to the players on their immediate right. Th
would be voted on. If they weren't the speaker, they would choose still choose option B, like before. If they have more ACs tha

Production: the primary would be built at their HS, using ONLY the 2 free resources. (2 fighters and 2 GF, or 4 GF if the new f
Trade II: the primary would receive 3 TGs, and automatically approve any new Trade Agreements, suggested by two players.
Warfare II: The High Alert token would be placed on which ever system contained the most ships, in resource value.
Technology II: The primary would be chosen, a random tech would be selected for which they had the prerequisites.
Bureaucracy: The CC would be placed in their CP. The TOP PO would be selected, and turned face up. The Primary would

FORMAT

-For each future Turn, specify which turn you mean. (Examples: "Turn 3: play my strategy card…"; "Turn 4: activate System X,
-For each conditional secondary play: use the "IF THEN" format. (Examples: " If Production is activated, then activate the sec
activated, then pass on the secondary.", "If either Bureaucracy, Tech, or Warfare are activate, then pass on their secondaries
-For truly conditional responses: use the "IF THEN" format. (Examples: " If Player1 attacks me at system X, then play my AC Z
within range of my PDSs then do NOT fire at his units.")
-When stating Build orders (in conditional orders, OR when posting them on the message board), please use this format: B
GFs(1) [on planet X]. Exhaust Planet Y(2), Planet Z(1), 1 TG and Sarween(1). If you don't specify how you will pay for a build/

When an adversary activates a system, all your PDS within range of the activated system may fire at enemy ships within the system (the ships MUST be
You cannot fire through a Wormhole. A planet may never have more than 2 PDS.
SPACE MINES
When a fleet ENDS ITS MOVEMENT in a system with enemy Space Mines, roll 1 die for each spaceship in the fleet (9 or 10 = hit). Remove 1 Space Min
SABOTAGE RUN
During pre-combat (see Space Battles for timing), players announce which Fighter will be used against which enemy War Sun (attacker first).
Outer defenses: roll for each fighter, on a natural 9 or 10 Fighter lives
Inner defenses: roll for each remaining Fighter, one at a time. On a natural 10, War Sun is destroyed, otherwise, Fighter is destroyed.
