Default Re: Are you tough enough to be the \"King of the Hi

Thanks Slynky for the game - it is always a pleasure to play such an excellent player and great sport.

This was my first full tech KOTH style game and it was actually very taxing on the planning. I was never sure if I was meant to be expanding the economy (which was already v.strong with 5 homeworlds) or building the war fleet.

I was lucky that I stoped your first attack fleet at the edge of my colonised systems. Had you won that battle it would have been very diferent.

I would be interested to hear your (and others of course) thoughts on using organic tech in a game like this. I seriously considered it but decided against it in the end because it would require upping Org mining ability and building a lot more organic miners (harversters?) as well. I also like the organic rammers in theory, but in practive I have often had trouble getting them to work. You seemed to have a simlar issue, such as the last battle when they moved away for the first turn, giving my ships ample time to hammer them.

Cheers for the game!
