Looks like Baal's replacement is just as agressive (and stubborn) as Baal. He insists on attacking me, and pretended to make peace through a NA pact only to park a fleet at my border.
I am happy to report another big victory. My legendary fleet, with 30 ships, engaged the enemy fleet (18 ships). Most enemy ships are Battle Cruisers, while my fleet is mostly LC's and frigates.
We suffered not a single lost ship (though one came close at 96% damage) and all 18 enemy ships are either dead or captured.
Nostropholo, prepare for the fiery vengeance of the Dragons !
The only bad thing about killing that fleet though was that it put me too much ahead of the 2nd place player, so a neutral race (former Partner!) suddenly declares war on me (maybe I am MEE) and kills an outpost
