Well, I will give you an A for concept and a B- for execution. The top to bottom placement of empires with the thin lines of systems up and down gives some quite natural choke points and lends a lot of tension and interest. However, because of the way the empies are shifted around slightly it's ended up being two separate 2 on 1 fights. Rex and I against Lord Chane in the east/center and Slynky/Asmala
against 1FSTCAT in the west.

It's not inconceivable that forseeable future soon this will be a 2 v 2 game instead of a 3 v 3 one. Unless one of the teams is able to get some assistance to the guys currently being attacked.

Not quite sure I would agree. Yes, Lord Chane has been assaulted by multiple players but with intel only. Otherwise, only Rex has moved and made attacks with fleets.

On the left (western edge), I have to agree a bit, it has turned out to be Asmala and I against 1FSTCAT. But just recently. Before that, it was mostly Asmala by himself.

And in the middle, mostly you and me, though my few ships have been simulating roadbumps in parking lots . At any rate, it's my colonies you've been bearing down upon.
