PBW isn't loading for me, but I'll check it out when I can.

You might try re-downloading the turn when PBW comes back, in case that was the trouble.
Yeah, I tried that (files unzipped the same). Tried rebooting...no go. Tried with the Launcher and straight from the SE4.EXE file...no go. Last time I looked, no turns were uploaded so wondering if it might be systemic to the whole turn (instead of just me).

Thanks!

Well, it seems congratulations are in order for Khyron of the RDF.

Carefully balancing a stalwart defense and a strong offence, he has emerged victorious in this game after 130 turns!

And thanks to SJ for putting together a map and a truly unique game. Frustrating at times () but that's the way it was supposed to be.

It was a very unique game. Not being able to pull back into your own space made for some interesting choices. I was moping up the Claw Beast empire and sent a large fleet unknown into Skynky's space. Normally I would have backed up, but my only choices were to attack or move through 8-10 systems to get back where I started.

At the end Slynky was by far my biggest worry. I got lucky and defended against his counter attacks into my space only with very disproportionate losses. If I didn't have 2-1 or better odds I wouldn't consider fighting an option.

Great game everyone.
