Then I would have built System Grav Shields instead. Take those out too, and the game would have long since degenerated into a mutual bloodbath of simultaneous destruction.

The fact is with all your advantages 60+ turns after you Nova bombed 30 systems taking out 3 other empires, you still haven’t taken me out yet. I’ve even managed to help bring back one of the three empires you took out.

Darn 300 ship limit
. If not for that, I'd have a few hundred space yard bases churning out dreadnoughts at a ridiculous pace and I'd be able to send an offensive too powerful to stop (short of nova bombing your own systems) and defend against a counterattack at the same time. As it is, I'm forced to try to find places small forces can wreak some havoc. Of course, I could resort to total turtling with my entire fleet outside of the shell if you really want me to...

Also, your policy of black hole-ing a new system every turn is not very ecological minded.
Just a friendly jab.

Meh, who cares about the galactic ecology? I've got more resources than I'll ever be able to use in the systems I've already got (I could easily pay maintenance on 2000 dreadnoughts), and any system I take I would then have to protect from warp openers and defend. Much easier to just use scorched earth tactics. So what if the rest of the galaxy is a useless wasteland when it's all over? My corner of the galaxy is just fine, and it's all I need. Now if this weren't a game, I might view things a tad differently. Since it is a game... Prepare For Extreme Compression!!
Hmm, just out of curiosity, I counted up all the black holes - in addition to the initial 30 star destroyers, I have used 13 black hole creators so far. That's over half the inhabitable galaxy destroyed!
In fact, I count only 29 systems with planets at all left, plus the 2 that I don't have maps for.

What game is this in? Return to Hell 2? Single player?
