SE4 Rating Games VI: Loser (Sad State of Affairs) versus Alneyan (the Arcadia League). Turn 2404.1

We made contact a few turns ago in a system which would become the heart of the most devastating war the galaxy had ever seen and... Oops, I overdo.

I have been second for the whole game, hopefully rank doesn't really matter. (I was first with a little advance on Geoschmo, even when the game was virtually lost for me) Both our starting systems were actually quite poor, resulting in ecominical hassle.

I am responsible for the first bloodshed, when engaging a lonely colony ship, or I should say, a Bersecker colony ship which retaliated against me. Not even Colony Ships are easy prey nowadays. Afterwards, Loser discovered the marvelous mines, very useful for making beautiful fireworks. But I fear he has something ready, waiting to retaliate against the League. Will I manage to win or at least, be a significant threat? I will let you bet on that. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

As for our Empires, Loser seems to be more dangerous. Yes, I made quite a mistake when designing my Empire, I uploaded the *wrong* empire file. Don't ask. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif Sure, my current Empire isn't *too* bad but it could be so much better. *Points at Advanced Storage Techniques for instance*

Didn't generate any interest at all in the three player Ratings game so I scrapped that and setup another 2 player game.

Ratings Game VII

I have taken one spot so we just need one more to get started.

Geoschmo

It takes quite a bit of nerve to be the first to hop in! Never know when Asmala is feeling froggy ( http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif ).

I'd hop in but I'm trying to save every brain cell for my "Hill" match... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Re: How good are you? Find out...
 

Oops, DUMB of me...the game is sitting there.

I have several hours to get it started...you available now?

And what kind of settings were you thinking about?

Re: How good are you? Find out...
 

Yep, I sent you an email.

Re: How good are you? Find out...
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Got it. Replied (getting settings ironed out).

Re: How good are you? Find out...
 

Hmmm, how about this then:

3 GOOD planets;
3000 racial points;
No mines;
No Ancient;
Medium midlife galaxy.

(left intel on for you... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif )

Counter? Or other suggestions?

Re: How good are you? Find out...
 

We having our conversation here then? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

That's fine. No mines. Interesting. That will require some thought. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I'll start the game as soon as both empires are up. Take me a minute to put a 3K race together.
