Turn 2411.3 Dinglehopper withdrew from game.
In the early part of the game he had attacked with 60 frigates when I had ~15 DDs!

Luckily my PD DDs I had made after he killed one system stoped the 60 frigates. After that my tech edge got biger and biger. In the end I think food contamination got his people to riot. It was an odd game.

So, how's the King match coming? No war reports from Asmala or Bbegemott? Surely there has been some combat by now?

BBegemott · #**2284** February 9th, 2004, 08:20 PM

KOTH BBegemott vs Asmala
Turn 2403.3
10 starting planets + no stellar manip + Geoschmo's spiral map

In short- Asmala has got the initiative.

He was leading in scores all the time, has already glassed one my homeworld and done some damage to the second. He controls the better part of the galaxy with more huge/breathebles than I do. So he naturally has more resorces & ships. Luckily I have the talisman.

There were lots of combats, but mostly they were small ones including no more than 10-15 ships.

Speaking about the map- i really like the shape of the map (in 3D terms it is a ring- a cyllinder with connected edges). Fast expansion, fast first contact and little knowledge where the enemy will come from makes this game exciting. Yet I am not happy with huge/breatheble/colonisable balanse. There are 19 perfect planets in Asmala's teritory vs. 7 of mine.
