Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
A FEW?!
4 ships is a few?
Time for a non-use pact. Burn all the intel centers!
ah, crud. The AI would probably exploit that little hole, wouldn't it.. though I don't think I've been hit by AI intel yet.
EDIT: OK, stopping all intel against humans now..

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
I've been hit by the Nostropholo a few times, but the CI that I've been running has always been enough to stop it so far. the CI bug only kicks in when more than one attack hits simultaneously.

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
Well, Baal has just dropped out of the original "Newbie" game...

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
Baal must be getting hit in real life. He dropped from one of my games too. Too bad we all can't just sit around playing SEIV all day.

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
Well, hopefully his replacement can figure things out fast enough.. dropping in in the middle of a war is bound to be interesting.
Meanwhile, one of my colonies just got hit by my first random event. Earthquake that killed 5 million. Guess how many people I had on that colony? Yup, 5 million. Instant ghost town, just shake and bake!

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
I suspect Baal dropped out partly because he just lost *the* decisive battle against me in Newbie I. His fleet of 50 ships managed to destroy some of my frontier worlds, cause I needed time to group together a response force. When we attacked Last turn, it was a major success. 45 ships against 50, we lost about 15 ships, he lost ALL. Of course it must have helped that my fleet was "legendary".
I'm sad he's leaving though, it was a lot of fun playing against him. I hope nothing serious is happening to him in real life.

Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
Dragonlord is completely right. I dropped because I could see that I was going to lose. I saw no reason to drag out an embarrassing defeat. I'm glad that some of my things entertained you Dragonlord. The mines were fun, the flanking your forward fleet was fun. I'm glad I could give you a small challange, but that's it for me.
I'm throwing in the gauntlet, you win. (translation = I quit, you kicked my *** to hard)
Sorry about dropping the grit tech game Geo, but I don't feel like getting my *** kicked again.
Sorry everyone but quitting is in my nature.
