Re: Ow.
Well, the Krill were certainly no huge deal. Then again, two of their homeworlds went AWOL.. The Uk-Tral haven't hit me yet, probably too many systems in between. The Sergetti you know about.
The AI early game research seems a bit wacked in this game. Most of the AIs had extra colony tech before they were using shields!

It's a PBEM game with one other person. We set it for max AI players. However even if there are 15 other players there is no reason for two home systems to be adjacent in a 255 system quadrant.

You got lucky with Krill. I my test games they are far more sophisticated then Sergetti (2.10 Version). Sergetti will only glass your colonies, while Krill would, however, conquer them and use them against you. They are definitely one of the best races I have seen so far.

Re: Ow.
Hehe, lucky me, Krill waited until I had a bit of tech before they tried me....
Sergetti, now those little *&^%$# got me early on and wiped my home system...that's why I am in a new game with Nostopholo (sp), Red Gauntlet Mercs and Sherlon (sp).

Re: Ow.
Elmo, If we assume 3 wormholes per system and randome players placement, the chance that in 16-player, 255-system you will have a close neighbor is roughly 18%. You should expect it to happen quite often.

I am not assuming "random player placement". I have checked the box for an "even distribution". The manual says this places home systems an "even distance from each other". Having an adjacent empire is not my idea of being an even distance apart. However the manual also does say this can vary so I guess that is what happened in my game.
