Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?

Asmala, put me back on the hill. I need some action!

Welcome back. May your progress be like your avat... er... like always before

Grazic Vs Primative 2401.1 - 3 Planet, Standard KOTH Game.

We are using a Tesco map with 3 starting Planets and we have meet at 2400.9

To the north, our Colony ship entered a system to find 2 Primative Colony ships on route to the Huge Rock None planet in the system, which we also wanted.
It is now 2 turns later and Primative now owns 4 planets in this system and we own 1.

I have been in 2nd place the entire game, and was planning on taking a long-term strategy, but it looks like I now have to change and quickly...

I'll be away till Sunday so no KOTH updates before it.

K.O.T.H. GozGuy (Federation Oligarchy) vs Gecko (Andromedan Invaders)
Middle of the Hill
Game Settings: K.O.T.H. Defaults
Map: Tescosamoa
Game Date: 2403.4

Scene 2:
“Things are Heating Up”
Initial attacks on GozGuy’s real estate by Gecko resulted in no tangible results and the loss of some frignaughts to ground defenses. GozGuy’s riposte mirrored Gecko’s attacks but ran into hastily placed ground defenses and minefields. Gecko then responded with small squadrons of frignaughts that proceeded to scorch two minor worlds at the cost of a few kills and cripples. Analysis of the combat logs indicates Gecko’s ship captains think “maximum range” means sitting in the atmosphere of a planet to conduct operations, i.e. they are too stupid to live.

The war is still fluid and victory remains up for grabs.

Phoenix-D vs. Grandpakim date: 2399

Civil war still continues in the Phoenix sector, but victory was achieved by GK's shock troops of the Boring Browns and they now take control of the newly discovered warp technology for the home planet of Marklar.

(Haven't you always wondered what happens before the game starts?

KOTH Geo vs. Deccan Turn 2405.5

I'm surrendering to Geo. He just sent a fleet of DUC IV ships into my space and I have most CSM 1 ships. I do have about 3 APB 2 destroyers but there's no way I can make enough of them in time, since Geo has the advantage in colony count and has Hardy Industrialists.

However, I've learned plenty from this game, and I'm looking forward to putting them in practice. Please re-up me Asmala.

I'm back and the KOTH page is updated.

Georgig (c.h.a.o.s Arnachy) -vs- Slynky (Trithian Empire) 2408.1

Well, after MANY turns of building up at the 2 (good) warp points separating our empires, Georgig let go with just about an all out attack on both fronts.

Point 1 (West): Nearly 120 light cruisers, about 60 on each side fought a bloody battle. All his ships were updated and it showed in battle. Were it not for the 73 sattelites I had there to damage or kill around 10 nearby ships, it would have been a different story as my ability to hit him with (many) outdated ships hurt my fleet badly. Results: all Georgig ships destroyed leaving me with 22 undamaged.

Point 2 (East): Between 30 and 35 light cruisers of Georgig's entered the warp point to fight my 25 ships. More outdated ships of mine. Though I killed a few ships, for him, it was like shooting fish in a barrel. I don't know how many ships of his I killed before being destroyed, I'm guessing around 10 - 15. (some of those were captured minesweepers that got destroyed later). Lucky for me I had a trained (modern) fleet of 8 ships arrive a few days later. The second "big" battle at the wormhole saw all his ships (approximately 15 to 20 ships) destroyed while I was left with 3 ships (1 damaged). Best ship rating now at 28%

So, in the few turns passing since then, we are building forces again. I'm just happy I anticipated the attack and put some ships in the yards even though it was a killer on my minerals!

Grazic Vs Primative 2402.3 - 3 Planet, Standard KOTH Game.

After first meeting a turn 9, the EEEvil EEEmpire went on a building spree and soon took over first place, but that is about the only advantage we have had...
Primative researched mines first, and has stopped me re-inforcing the shared system, even mining both sides of the warp points into this system. Our colony in the shared system did launch mines just before 6 fighters attempted an attack.

The Private Horde has now researched fighters and at the loss of 1 fighter (not counting those dead from mines), has destroyed 1 fledgeling Colony, 1 Colony ship and about 7 Frigates.

No sign of Primative forces in the middle or south yet...

Parabolize vs Mathias Ice (turn 60 something)

I surrender. End inevitable. No desire.

Asmala please take me out of the rotation for a while.

No joy.
