Default Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?

The Last victory was more about luck with the starting position and atmosphere choice, than skill.

Small Tesco map, with an Western block of 15 systems and an Eastern block of 20 + system, connected by a single warphole. I started South West, Roanon North West. We both had Rock None, and my 4-5 systems had plenty breathables while his had very few (or none ?). At turn 30 and I manage to get control over the east-west link, glassing his main mineral production planet in the process.

Kudos to Roanon for a great game, where he went directly on the offensive to get the most out of a difficult situation. He glassed 4 of my planets early, but as they all was new colonies, the loss was not devastating.

Roanon:
You still have 2 hours to break Geos record for the shortest retirement
