# Emperor alliance gift timing
|
|
|
|
## Advanced allied auction payment — 29 October 2026
|
|
|
|
For a clean classic Advanced auction won by the Emperor's current mutual ally,
|
|
the Emperor receives a uniform opportunity to give spice before the original
|
|
payment. The same public waiting window appears whether the buyer holds Karama
|
|
or the Emperor has available spice; only the Emperor sees the gift amount
|
|
available. Continue leaves payment to the buyer or the existing automatic
|
|
settlement. A gift's Karama response retains the original lot, bid and
|
|
committed payer split; allowing it credits the buyer once, while cancellation
|
|
transfers nothing. Gifted buyer spice follows the buyer's normal payment route;
|
|
the previously pledged Emperor contribution remains separately accounted for.
|
|
|
|
The uniform priority and explicit Continue are provisional online timing for
|
|
the authorized Advanced rules' any-time power, not publisher instructions.
|
|
The same Continue is currently required even when the Emperor has no spice;
|
|
this protects the private balance but still needs refinement to meet the
|
|
project's no-confirmation requirement for forced automatic actions.
|
|
Older already-open payments do not acquire a new window. Other auction modes,
|
|
optional modules and live commitments needing a combined planner remain
|
|
unfinished. [Runtime cases](../tests/emperor-auction-gift.test.ts) use real
|
|
setup, alliance and bids with explicitly staged balances and cards;
|
|
[rendered controls](../tests/emperor-auction-gift-controls.test.tsx) cover the
|
|
table and owner-only opportunity.

## Advanced Guild timing prototype — 29 October 2026
|
|
|
|
The user-authorized revised rules, physical p. 31 (printed p. 29), allow the
|
|
Emperor to transfer spice to an ally at any time and for any reason. In a
|
|
clean classic-faction Advanced game, an Emperor can now make that gift while
|
|
the Guild's normal Shipment and Movement timing choice is pending. The choice
|
|
remains in place while the gift's ordinary Karama response resolves. Allowing
|
|
the gift transfers the selected uncommitted spice once; cancellation transfers
|
|
none. Either outcome leaves the same Guild decision and movement order.
|
|
|
|
The owner-only control uses the server's current amount and ally quote. The
|
|
initial scope excludes optional modules, competing continuation windows and
|
|
live commitments requiring a combined planner. The pre-existing quiet-window
|
|
gift remains unchanged. Other decision and response parents and the source's
|
|
complete any-time scope remain unfinished; this prototype does not certify
|
|
Advanced play or deployed behavior.
|
|
|
|
[Runtime cases](../tests/emperor-guild-timing-gift.test.ts) start a real
|
|
Advanced game and stage the alliance and movement boundary; [rendered controls](../tests/emperor-timing-gift-controls.test.tsx)
|
|
cover the actual table and owner-only control.
