King Title Defense III: Stone Mill vs. Rex Torres
Second try...
Turn 8: Growing; still no sign of the enemy.

Unfortunately, I encountered a retrofit bug at around turn 30 (detail in other thread). This was at a critical point in the game and hurt my chances to defend myself. Rex did not wish to replay the turn, and he happened to have cruddy positioning, so we decided to start over. It was the fairest thing to do.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The bLasted Black Hole Riders have struck again. This is starting to be Asmala's signature move. If you remember, he did that to me too.

Don't worry, I'm sure your population will be happier with him. At least they may get some burgers out of the deal. I mean, what were your hippie vegetarian dudes eating before? Sunlight? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">yeah, sorry about the bad placement, Geo.
You outsmarted me there a couple of times and had me in the ropes pretty bad.
I agree that next time we meet, I hope that we get a real game going.

Asmala, please move me up hill.

Rollo

(edit): ugh, just checked. I guess that puts me in the #3 contender spot. That'll be waiting for a while.
Hey Geo, look at the bright side. At least your next game will start soon... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

time to add another level on the top....

Looks like there are too many logs.....

3 waiting kind of sucks...

Perhaps an additonal 2 levels... and the 3 waiting can be the 2nd level and the next person who makes it plays rollo...

Those two winners form the next higher level and that winner plays koth...

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

You're too kind Rollo. You don't have to be ashamed you spanked me from begining to end and did it in 30 turns. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Not sure what you mean by on the ropes. I only managed to kill one minor planet and half a dozen ships and that by sending every ship I had against it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Oh, I get it. You were trying to keep a low profile so your next opponent doesn't take you too seriously. Ooops. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Update on my game with Rambie. Turn 101 and I've begun my trip into the system that we both occupy with a small fleet of mine. What lies beyond this system is known only by Rambie but I intend to find out very soon.

Cheeze vs Asmala, turn 35

My first attack fleet just pull up the weeds from the first planet of Cheeze. It'll be nice to see what my fleet will be able to do http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Yes that gas colony ship which I got really helped me. I have to say I'll be very surprised if Cheeze can win this game, so big benefit it is.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

I have decided to add one more level to the hill. It'll be naturally between the King match and the Top of the hill. Name suggestions to that level are accepted.

I asked DavidG if he could update that level to the KOTH program, so it may take some time before this level appears in the KOTH page. However a new matchin this level, Kazarp vs Rollo, starts soon.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Since Top of the Hill is taken; perhaps you could name it Crown of the Hill; or Peak of the Hill. *Shrugs* Just some suggestions. Bad ones, but still suggestions. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
