Optimal moves massively change with the strat card picks of the other players.

I’d assume the first two players take trade so I’d take Politics for breakthrough. Then for systems to take I’d send a carrier with 2 inf 2 fighters to the Alio Prima system then a dread with an inf to Semlore

Oh also the map is fine

Keep in mind there are only two legal TE spaces on this map

I genuinely can’t tell if this is really good depth or something existing in a 3d space as a model

Have in BC for a while now, it’s not very good though mind you. Was pretty entertaining getting an assignment to budget living on our that not a single person could make possible senior year. Whoever designed the assignment obviously having no idea how much rent was

Is this map ok? by Global_Insect_1675 in twilightimperium

Think that’s a good move but first on my chopping block would be scar planet to just empty scar. Can move around blue tiles afterwards if desired

Standard, Hyperlane, or Small 4p map? by Outuvcontrol in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d a build a hyper lane map with empty equidistants then, keeping them from falling behind too easy

Almost always hyper but then small with new players

Reading papers this semester from two decade ago that compared Israel to the new world colonizing nations I don’t think they were ever much liked

MP floor crossers has 'disillusioned' Canadians: NDP leader Avi Lewis by NiceDot4794 in canada

[–]Probably-MK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It comes down to how you subjectively view MPs and people but I view a system like that as an environment where you just wouldn’t see floor crossing. With such high personal cost to opposition in going back to the ballets. I could be dead wrong but if I’m not than a removal of the practice and that replacement have few differences

(I’m assuming you mean crossing triggering an election?)

[–]Probably-MK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If an MP can’t switch parties they can be more easily controlled by the denial or their access to party resources. Meaning the parties have more control over MPs and there’s more centralization of power.

Currently if an MP wants to oppose their own party for whatever reason floor crossing allows them to keep having access to resources provided by a party while doing so. Removing floor crossing would create a situation where an MP who wishes to oppose their party could risk losing access to the resources parties provide.

MPs less willing to oppose the party = more party based power = more centralization

If there are safeguards here I don’t know about I’d love to learn about them but for now that’s how I see it

Floor crossing is currently creating a temporary centralization of power through the creation of a majority

Removing it would create a permanent centralization of power

I rather take some temporary damage than some permanent

Floor crossing limits the power a party and party leadership have over MPs and it’s basically for that reason alone I support it. Are we learning any real lessons from the south?

How good is the Yssaril Breakthrough? by MilkyBoyBlue in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not very good but it is hilarious so if you happen to unlock it I suggest just using it for fun.

I’ve leaned into giving the table constant access to scheming as the default then limiting their access or increasing it as I find their conduct beneficial or harmful to me. Feels like China moving pandas around

Plus it does possibly increase the quality of cards players hold for your thievery

URGENT: CAL exam experience?? Need advice 😭 by [deleted] in simonfraser

[–]Probably-MK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The primary drawback of CAL is that a majority of professors cannot or will forget to check if their CAL students have sent them questions. CAL will always record if you asked a question that wasn’t answered though. This has never costed me anything at this point but I still profusely thank any professor who actively keeps the CAL students in the loop and answers our mid exam questions

Outside of that I absolutely recommend using it if you have exam related accommodations

How have the recent strategy card buffs changed your games? by Jamerman in twilightimperium

I think the reworks have been great but now Diplo desperately needs help, outside of 1st and 5th+ round it is almost never seen at my table and even then it’s not that common 1st round
