2401.1: Renegade 13 surrenders to Glyn. After having my homeworld pounded by a few missile frigates, my spaceyard destroyed and only a couple ships left, I see no way of winning this thing.
Unfortunately (for me) we started in systems directly adjacent to each other. I happened upon him with a colony ship and promptly sent in a couple missile frigates to shake him up a bit. They did a bit of damage, but were subsequently destroyed. After that I think I focussed a little too much on expansion not striking fast and hard...which was what Glyn chose to do. After a lucky break for him in which my missile frigate was destroyed by his identically designed missile frigate (without a scratch on his, of course!
) he was able to get to my homeworld unopposed. He got another lucky break with that first ship, destroying only one facility on my homeworld, but that was (of course!
) my spaceyard. After that I was pretty much toast, especially when another couple missile frigates joined in the slaughter.
Alneyan, please move me to the bottom of the hill yet again, and I think for all my future games I'm going to specify manual placement!! I hate losing due to luck and bad posititioning...and maybe a little bad management.
