Baal and Dragonlord - You two guys are going good. Almost 300k points - compared to me in third with 120k. It's going to be one hell of a war.

Mineral planets are best!

How is it that you can see my score Spoogy but I can not see yours?

It may come in handy for me in the future.

EDIT: By the way it will probably be a short war for me 'cause I have crappy ships that Dragonlord can just blow out of the water. I've been wasting my time researching crappy tech, like Applied Political Science and Shields.

Shields are by no means crappy

In newbie 2, Im blowing the heck out of the Eee with decade-old ships mounting Meson BLaster IIs.

They deal less damage, but the Eee shielding REALLY sucks. Well, that and overwhelming numbers.. 37 on one, you're pretty much screwed.

Well Dragonlord is using PPBs and I don't have the research output to make phased shielding worth while.

Baal - through observation. I've been in contact with Dragonlord and I know you and him and switching back and forth (as he keeps going from 1st to 2nd).

Currently, I find myself contained by the massive empires of Dragonlord and Baal. Well, at least they're not allies...
