Hail to Asmala. He is still the King.
The Primitive one truly lived up to his name in this game
After Asmals stole my pop early I took a crazy chance and went for the early second colonizing tech while waiting with ECM and Sensors. With the ballance mod and the difficulties to train ships I figured I would have time enough to upgrade the sensors later. Guess I was wrong, when Asmala came I still needed 3 more turns + repair time to have my ships ready to face him.
Could still made a fight for it though, if it wasn't for the fact I just tried to colonize 25 planets with my new ICE class colonizers. Unfortunately they had the Rock colonizer module. Damned upgrade button [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
Wouldn't have mattered much if they had the right tech though, Asmala would have won this one anyway.
I need a rest Asmala. Take me off the hill for a while
