"Not even another player in the lower bracket. Me and PhoenixD are at turn 67 and he is winning. I didn't have the greatest starting position and his ships are more advanced then mine. Due to the fact that I am not the best player when it comes low tech start with medium start. I guess I should practice with that setting against the AI for awhile eh? But I am sure we will break the 100 turn mark."
Especially if I keep running my main attack fleet out of gas..oops. Actually when my first attack fleet hit that minefield, I thought I was through. I was going for a quick kill..and the only thing that saved my was finding a few huge breathables in the south. Bad start? You had three breathables in your home system!
EDIT: Oh, and the fact that I had a big agressive/defensive advantage, and you went direct-fire, didn't hurt either. You scared the living heck out of my when we first met. Relgious AND temporal AND a shipyard advantage? Yike.
