Cycle 2/3 voidborn fleet bonus only applies to skirmish in phase C. Couple of things you missed. When you reinforced focus you forgot your improved ark ships population increase. You over produced twice this cycle so you have another safe haven spot filled.
Ahh, no you’re right, I was thinking because you did it in phase c it counted, just checked the rules that is considered another turn. So sorry about that misinformation 🤦♂️
9:30 "If you are ever instructed to place more Voidborn Fleet Power than is allowed in a sector, only place cubes up to the sector limit." This rule seems to be in conflict with Prep 5A.
Deployment of fleets can go to any sector you control unless the action specifies something else no requirement for a shipyard. So Torpedoes immediate effect is a corvette fleet power at home. Reinforcement deployment is at any/all shipyards. But others could be into a sector without a fleet power.
No worries. I was a little unsure as Nigel had obviously watched the video and didn't pick up on it. Loving the videos though. Really well explained and helps me learn a game that is difficult to grasp at first. Thank you @@jtfike
@@100pcBlade That is why I worded the response the way I did. I do recall catching an error like that, but I have played this six times now and can't remember which playthrough I did that!! haha. I also didn't have time to review the video...but you were absolutely correct in your observation and I'm happy I did catch it.
@@100pcBlade And thank you for that. I found a really weird niche where I play games that I don't fully understand the rules and people actually learn a lot from it...likely because I'm not rushing through it and i'm explaining what I know and how I'm thinking through the process. So many well polished playthrough videos but none of them slow it down.
You should just spend 10 materials for upkeep as you get a production bonus at the end of round 2 which will refill it and give you 3 points. * the net effect is you would have 3 more food.

thank you for this. I thought I had to overproduce twice in one action/round. Not twice in one cycle. That makes things so much easier!!

1:09:40 The icon is not remove cube, it's ADD cube when you successfully defend. Also: the phase C +1 cube does not apply to wars.

During setup the tech cards that have 4 points on them were supposed to have the tech card behind them removed.

1:08:00 you get to move a cube to the active area for the 2nd action on reinforce
31:17 I don’t think you can play the advanced Ark Ships tech as you haven’t passed any of the thresholds on your civ tracks?
You are correct if I did that.

ok. Just carried on watching the rest of the video and you actually caught the error. Sorry for chiming in. I should have waited.
