60. Building the HighLiner class shuttle freighter Greyhound, and stationing it on a warp point to enemy territory.

RD I did that to a planet twice in a row once. When you're playing on a huge starmap and only half paying attention, system names blur.

61. Destorying all other races by collapsing all the stars in all of there systems, then doing the same to yours just for the fun of it.

62. Truning EVERY system on the map into a blackhole.

Ah! Another contender for the title of Nut-In-A-Shell!

Another one of those "Oops, I'm screwed" things...

63. Opening up a PBW turn-file, and noticing that a good ally of yours has opened 6 warp points and deployed nearly 20 star destroyers to all your systems, has them poised over all your stars except for one where it's two moves away, and over all you're closest partner's stars...

...Yep, that just happened to me. So much for a trusted ally...and so much for me and my partner

I can stop the one star destroyer, and maybe salvage some of my fleet to go on a revenge destroying spree, but that's about it...bummer.

64. Capturing some population from all the 19 races other than your own, and putting them all in a nice zoo starbase.

A zoo starbase! Classic. That might go well with a mothballed Showcase Fleet of captured ships from all the other empires.

65. Building your first Atmospheric Modification Plant

On the other side of things... Finally finishing your Diabolical Evil Master Plan that you've been working on for the past 30 or so turns to wipe out all known Deeply Religious empires simultaneously (Yes Renegade, that means Yor!rek is going down too - I've got 30 of them, and I'm using them all). I just hope no one's built any system grav. shields. As for the "trusted ally" bit, since when does a mere T&R grant that status? Also, you can thank the bad pathing algorithm for the one star destroyer not in position. If it had followed the path it was supposed to instead of taking one of the new warp points, it would be there already.

Douglas.....

That is....Ambitious to see the least! Sweet Mother of Mercy that is Diabolical. I recommend that you grow a traditional Villainous Handlebar Moustache!
