As with my game with frozenstorm I’ll be a bit slower over the next two weeks as I’m in Italy. Will keep chipping away at turns when I have some down time though

Well, balanced on a knife’s edge from what I can tell, but I think I can press the advantage in terms of hand size against Hugh.

Okay, we definitely caught Hugh at a good point and a lucky Free Speech draw from Lawful Search. On the other hand, he will recover hand and we’re going to be going WAY DOWN.

Well that felt a lot like getting caught with my pants down! Thankfully I have enough board to let me trade into his while I tech up. Maxband Prynn so she remains a viable threat, Patrol Nullcraft in SQL so he can’t just clear it with a brand new mirror copy. Tech in Assimilate to deal with Jail / Garrisons / EotC and Rememberer to start the Past engine.

Three heroes out and no Quince maximises my options to push back and I’m happy enough for Truth Tech II to come out since I can always Assimilate an Eyes of the Chancellor and Macciatus really just allows Prynn trash his Illusions instead of killing them
I’m assuming the reference to an Inspector was actually for the Tax Collector. Let me know if that’s incorrect.
