Default Try this next time for a fun multiplayer SEIV game.

I'm in a PBW game called Dimension X.

10 starting planets each + 6 players + medium quadrant = A WHOLE LOT GOING ON REAL FAST!

Turn 36 and already we have a MAJOR drop drop all out 4 empire war going on. Big fleet battles. Ships going everywhich way.

I may get smoked soon, but it's a bLast. I highly recommend it.

*LOL* Right on...
Mid Tech? High Tech?...Or Low Tech?
Whats the size of some of those fleets? I usually try for individual ship superiority, coz I dont like fumbling with a huge fleet... but Im interested to hear about how big some of these battles get... And how long ya gotta wait for the strategic combat to end *LOL*

We went with a medium tech start.

One of my fleets with 25 ships just knocked out one of his with 15. (Well, 14 after one of them decided he liked the odds better on my side. I love intel. )

I have another enemy approaching from my other border with another fleet of 10-15. My ally has yet to get involved in the fight, but I expect him to come riding to the rescue soon. (I hope.)

Assuming he doesn't run into a meat grinder, heh. I loved that little Cold War we had going- open war, but no one's shooting!

10 to one against my fleet's chances on this next turn though.

Cynapase: no, it's not the same game.

Heh, you'll see shooting soon if you try going forward with that fleet of yours.

Yeah, the cold war was fun. That was some of my best BS I was throwing at you. And I do like the BS.
