[Slynky]

My god(s), what a corker of a game!!!

I have just pasted Slynkys planet with three warp points on it, one of the three raider fleets (damn warp openers) just flew past my homeworld and left it alone . Lucky for me as the cavalry, two fleets, were both two squares away from the Homeworld.

The Hero of Silesia Medal goes to every sailor aboard Yabby V 003 for a daring and potentially Empire saving attack. They bravely flew out of their hiding hole in an ion storm and attacked a lone enemy light cruiser, suspected of being an accursed warp opener. In blatant disregard for the 60 other enemy ships in the system they destroyed one of the greatest threats to the Empire. Three cheers to the crew of Yabby V 003... Hurrah, Hurrah, HURRAH!

And I note that you do have ice col as well now.

I think this might be one of those games of who can cause enough riots first! So Slynky do you have UPCs and troops as well????

I would nominate Yabby V for the "Biggest Payoff From Patient Hiding" in any game I've played in. Good gamble and great payoff!

Anyone who plays routinely with me knows I'm big on UPCs...a priority somewhere around Sensor/ECM 2s...so they are everywhere. And when you broke through the hole, I started building various defenses on all planets in the vicinity.

Yeah, I realized the difference between our races in warfare but missing about half my shots when beside the target , I was a bit shocked! And I won't even discuss firing from a distance.

And around 100 shots from sats resulted in about 10 hits or so. Ugh!

I suppose, since 1st through 3rd in the tourney has been decided, there isn't much interest in our game...'cept for us .
