Default Re: It\'s time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I

Thanks for the game BBegemott. I think the key for my victory was the starting position. I started much nearer the center than you so I was able to grab a bigger part of the galaxy. The result was I had bigger resource income, but I made one mistake: I stopped building research centers too early, when I had about 200k research points (it was a high research cost game). Even though my ships weren't so advanced as BBgemott's, my numbers overwhelmed his fleets.

The map was Geo's Balanced map and it was nice. The only problem was the amount of planets: it was quite laborious to maintain over 500 planets and 1000 ships.
