CaptRR.
I've thought about that.
For me, I could continue just to get story material.
But for the Geckos and the Zax it would be hard. They are pinned down surroudned by the enemy alliance.
The Argons are constantly being hit by 10+ intel attacks per turn, some ships lost every turn to crew conVersion. I calculated some turns ago that his enemies had approximately 1 million intel points per turn, most of which goes into intel attacks against him.

I do belive that we might have a very small chance of winning against them, but as Tbontob says, that would be condoning this kind of behaviour.
And I don't think we can get the kind of cooperation that they have developed.

As to them being friends? I've asked them and they deny knowledge of eachothers.
One option is to continue the game as small multiplayer (1-3 players) for the stories.

I'm sorry. But I just don't see the game surviving.
If you wish you can take over as host and then I'll continue as long as you do. But I can't accept the responsibility of allowing this situation to continue as present. I can as I said continue so that all effort you have put into the stories wont be lost.

Another option is to continue writing the stories freely from the game, spinning from the interaction between our stories.
If for example one of us writes of deafeat the other must follow that.
The CP might even go to war against the Zax in the future if the Zax wins against the FMA. Then we will have two sides of a war.
Or the CP might split up!

From what we've written I think that this would be a viable option.
I found it hard initially to cancel the game but then I've had a week to ponder the issue.

Now in retroperspective I see alot of settings that should have been different in this game and that will be changed in a next Galactic combat.
(No gifts or tech trade, no surrendering, show only own points, max alliance 2 players, 0 starting race points, win condition, player 1 300% more than player 2, huge universe, high tech cost)
