It worked for 2 rounds, and then the wrath came.

Any thoughts on first round as Vuil‘Raith in this situation? Playing 14p in person so gonna be a long one
Barony is Speaker, expecting trade and politics as first two strat card picks.
I’m playing Vuil‘Raith for the first time and I am unsure about whether to just go Construction for a solid R1 setup or to pick up either Leadership or Diplomacy for the Breakthrough access
Leadership would allow for Tech Construction Warfare and Diplo/Imperial Secondary (am I crazy if I put 3 in tactics and do all 5?), getting the BT by throwing away the secret first turn, but this would mean not having any Dimensional Tears where i could move ingress tokens..
Diplo seems like a rather lackluster pick tho because, while granting me bt access, it comes at a big cost, expecting Mahact to explore the Tech Skip expedition, and it denies me either Tech or Warfare if i want to build a space dock with Construction secondary..

Hey everyone!

Tomorrow we're launching our new Twilight Imperium streaming channel with the first of our new Community Games.

Would love to have as many people chatting to us on stream and we also have a super cool overlay that could really change how you watch a TI game! (the video is just a taster!)

Sunday the 4th of October, 10am UK time

The Muaat Rebellion: 6 players, 10 points, 8-hour limit

Community Games are quarterly streamed show matches where we build a game around a particular theme, piece of lore or mechanical idea, then randomly select players from our community to take part.

For our first game, we're taking several connected pieces of TI lore and throwing them together into an alternate-history war.

The Sardakk offensive forces the Jol-Nar to deploy their experimental War Suns, giving the enslaved Gashlai their opportunity to rebel and become the Embers of Muaat. Meanwhile, the Naalu push their offensive around Lisis, drawing the Saar back towards a world of huge significance to their people, while the Deepwrought intervene over the Jol-Nar's increasingly dangerous approach to technology.

So tomorrow's table is:

Muaat | Jol-Nar | Sardakk | Naalu | Saar | Deepwrought

For a little background, we're the team behind the UK National Championship and London Maneuvering Jets, and I also host the Through the Wormhole TI podcast.

Thanks as well to everyone who engaged with my recent post about the podcast. The response was lovely, and hopefully we'll see some of you in the stream tomorrow!
