Baron, don't be so sure about the fastest loss untill I finish my game http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
But NOW you will now that you shouldn't leave your HW without defence http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
And what is good about KOTH - you can lose whatever number of games you like. You will still be able to play (nevertheless from the bottom) and learn http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Round 7 came in a Yulroy attacked my home world with his missile frigate, took out my only defender and then my Space Yard, which was just about to roll out another ship.

I'm going for the quickest loss of all time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">What turn # you at? 52 so far is the lowest count in the tourney. The highest is 122. But I am sure those numbers are going to change in a matter of just a few days. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I love the KOTH! This is the most interesting game I've played before because you cannot rely on your allies (because there are none) and must play alone. With stock AI that was not a problem but with real profs... well... Stonemill is making me some troubles with a single ship!! That is what I call the beauty of SE4 Every time you play with a strong player - you learn _A LOT_ of useful and interesting things.
Geo thanx for the opportunity
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes I agree. Very fun. Pablo and I have ripped through over twenty turns today. The guy must be a machine; never eats or uses the restroom?!? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif By the time I rush through my turn and upload it, another one is generated!! The action is fast, and Pablo is doing well.

Pablo, I have to chuckle a bit about that "single ship" I know you won't let me get away with that again. That is good old clean behind the lines harassment . You are a fun opponent, I hope you don't learn too fast.

Our game is still way up in the air! On guard!

Stone Mill,
you are really good with that 'one ship' http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif maybe you log the number of ships I've lost because of it? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif ))
I _think_ I am learning fast but you will have to find it out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

We started as neighbours, Yulroy built 2 Frigates to start with, I built a Colony ship & then Space Yard Station. He warped into my system - and attacked my Home Planet. After the first battle, I lost my Space Yard Station and 1 facility. Can you guess which facility? Yep - My Space Yard. After that - Game over.

Baron, not sure if it would have helped, but next time that happens emergency build some missle sats. His missle frigates would not have been able to target them, and while it was busy bLasting the planet your sats could knock out the frigates.

Unless of course you had the bad luck of your sats being launched on the wrong side of the planet and being out of range. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Sometimes there is nothing you can do.
