Taking Slynkyland was desparation. I knew they would never survive going back through Deadness so I chanced the black hole.
Those ships made it throgh the black hole of "Steve is Badenough" and arrived with one turn with supplys left.

I just did the math. If I threw 1/2 my fleet through the warp point at Paradice i would still lose.

19 Sats with 2 PPB each - 38 shots at 100 pts per
All those fighters
a few LCS
how many BCs???
come get me big boy.

Paradise should be anything but a paradise after the battle with yor 72 ships. I'll subtract 20 (or so) ships due to them being support. So, call it 52 ships. Against my 18 and satellites. There are more satellites there, though.

One weird turn of events...I was lucky to check the "stack" as I saw your fleet building and noticed I didn't have a talisman on board. They couldn't have hit a turd in a punchbowl. But now, it's there. I figure my satellites can kill 7-8 ships per combat round.

It should be a good fight.

Battleships are in the yards, though!

Well, there it is. I suspect you are anxious to see how your 72 ships did.

(oh, and me, too... )

It will be interesting because I chose the one strategy everyone says won't work.

Would that be the "back off" strategy? I see you halted the big fleet. But, of course, made one just as big somewhere else!

Just where do you get all those resources!?!?

Off to bed for me. After all, there are lots of people wanting to ask why their monitor doesn't come one.
