That is a weird way of saying, I expect to see a few surprises/tricks from you as well. Failing that, brute force will probably wipe me like a raw booger... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif |

Dundas Redneck Clan (Kazarp) -vs- Trithian Empire (Slynky) 2404.5
9 turns Last night ( http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif ). Of course, I seem to be putting off the inevitable slowly (or maybe NOT so slowly). There are 2 paths into my area. (well, the most popular areas...hehe). I've tried to block them up but now, after several ship losses, I'm staring at 8 ships on one approach (destroyers, frigates, and a few LCs) and 17 ships on the other approach (destroyers and LCs). And me not with much to stop them. Maybe Rags I will play after all... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif |

Joachim V Gandalph
2403.4 Praetor Joachim sighed. The Last few weeks had been hard for the Silesian people. All the best minds had said that the prophecies were just fairytales - designed to stop the Silesians from reaching out across the stars. But they were true. The Tesli'k had appeared. We responded by occupying as many worlds as we could. Our scientists strove to get more weapons to fight them off. Ships died - on both sides, many to the infernal 'mine'. The battle for survival seems to have settled in for prolonged trech warfare. Praetor Joachim turned back to the cabinet - "Well, where do we send the battle fleet and strike them down first?" ----- The border seems to be established between us. Mines and small skirmishes have been the only actions so far - plenty of pretty lights over new colonies! We have traded 1st place back and forth but I seem to have held it for the Last few turns - very surprising given my mud covered peasant status! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif |
Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
The forces of the GK Confederation have finally forced the surrender of the remnants of the Gozguy Empire.
Luck played a big part in this game. The initial borders seemed to split the map neatly in half but as it turned out, I had the lion's share of good systems while Goz had all the empty systems. Relentless pressure gradually forced him further and further back till an honorable surrender was his only option. I hope Goz gets a better start next time; he's a good player. I'm ready to move up the hill and be cannon fodder for my next worthy opponent. |

Dundas Redneck Clan (Kazarp) -vs- Trithian Empire (Slynky) 2405.8
13 turns since Last update. A lot has been happening. He had 8 warships (with minesweepers) coming down one "alley" toward me but I was able to take care of them (with some losses). But the other side, where he had 17 ships, grew to a fleet of 27 ships with minesweeping ability of the magic 100. I tried to hold him off with fleets of 8, 6, 5, etc., but though my ships were technically superior, couldn't withstand the brute force. All I could do was chip him down bit by bit. After 6 or 7 systems were glassed, I finally killed off the fleet...except for a few stragglers (some got picked off, others didn't). Losing a huge breathable (in that run) hurt plenty! Through all this, I have managed to stay in first place. Ship count, I'm guessing, since I have WAY (over 50... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ...can't give too much info away). Now, I have 3 big fleets (well, the one in the east isn't so big, but it doesn't need to be). I should be able to put up some defense now and get some of my planets back. (re-colonize) The Last event to happen was when a strange ship flew over one of my colonies and bestowed upon the population bag after bag of Big Macs. I tried to tell them to be wary of gifts from strangers but they gobbled them up and all were poisoned! We will have to endeavor to use BK Whopper retaliation! Well, I'm still managing to be competitive. I had hoped to Last longer than any other of his opponents but when Ilooked at his record, I see he has a game that Lasted nearly 150 turns. DRAT! Guess I'll have to settle for second longest game... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif [ July 06, 2003, 20:14: Message edited by: Slynky ] |
