I chose Last time. You can choose this time.

Sssh Slynky, that is supposed to be a secret. And some might figure out I am actually working for more than one organization once they are aware I work for Intelligence gathering agencies. No, I didn't give myself away, it was merely... erh... well, a random eventuality.

It is reverse psychology. Saying it makes it so obviously unbelievable. (or does it?)

Then I won't venture far from the "KOTH Trail":

All KOTH settings except 1 GOOD planet instead of a medium.

True enough Slynky, I had to state I was working for four intelligence agencies so that nobody would believe me. But obviously I had to dispel your own affirmation as this was the expected answer. Erh... well, the basic goal was to puzzle and confuse every potential dangerous spies.

Agreed Georgig, what about a Tesco map? I gather Intelligence is disabled? Apart from that, a single planet start with 20,000 resources is fine for me.

Agreed, I will tell Geo about the settings and change my Empire accordingly then.

The League (my Empire) surrenders to Joachim after 48 turns and the arrival of two enemy fleets in my systems. He has more ships, more planets, more resources (even if I may have better ships, but they won't turn the tables on their own), and I cannot hope to get back to the offensive.

My main mistake was to delay mines for too long, allowing him to strike at random in my Empire, and these mines would have allowed me to take perhaps an additional system here or even two. In a galaxy with less than twenty systems, quite a few non-colonizable, it would have been welcomed. Since then I was fighting to catch up, but I was too far behind to really stand much of a chance as highlighted by the current battle results.

So Joachim will have to challenge the King. May Lady Luck shine on Joachim, for he will need it.

Thanks for the good game. I was shocked at the damage I did to your planets early! Mines may well have changed everything....

Bbegemott settings?
