Re: Space Empires Haiku.
Had to get in on this one...
From chill space above
floods brimming plasma downward.
A colony dies.
They're not so loyal,
your brave space-faring pilots.
Crew insurrection.
Your coloniser
for my worthless two escorts.
Unequal exchange?
Now scrap metal are
your fierce shield generators.
Phased polaron Beam.
TCP/IP
is awaited by many
but I play by mail.
Suicide Junkie
with eye patch and parrot made
Pirates and Nomads.
With ewok-like tricks,
a meek primitive species
defends 'gainst your troops.
A thousand warships
miss your cloaked star destroyer.
You sneaky bastard.
I can't understand
your political logic
my murderous friend.

"Uh, I think so, Brain, but balancing a family and a career ... oooh, it's all too much for me. "
