Any bets on the (minor) damage they do before being converted into vapor? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

No, I don't know. I doubt they will get to glass the planet or anything, but I expect to take heavy losses. Your little make nice ploy at the same time the Levolrie attacked worked to perfection. My main fleet has made a mad dash from one end of my empire and back, and so far has not seen a bit of action. You won't get beyond that system though for sure. At least not without a lot more than you have there now.

Ploy? WHAT ploy? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif No, I mean it. That was totally sincere on my part, though the other Consortium suggested it. I didn't expect it to Last, but I wasn't expecting to go to war the next turn either.

Now, if that Last guy would just send in his turn..

The longest battle I've seen was in a PBW game, 20-30 ships per side, with the smaller fleet averaging 2-3 seekers per ship. My screensaver is set at five minutes, and it kicked in four times during the combat replay.

Ugh. Did you have it on fast combat replay?

Re: Try this next time for a fun multiplayer SEIV game.
 

No, it was on my normal settings; I've never turned anything on or off to increase the game's speed. I'm a very patient person with a lot of free time.

OK, this one was so classic I just has to post it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

"Do not despair at the poor showing of your fleet. Take heart in the fact that you are at least better than the Levolrie. Their ships fall apart at the mere sight of my fleets. Yours at least have to be fired apon before they disintegrate."

Nice one Geo.
