Your Generals are truly ingenious, but your Admirals should be recycled into the spacepig's fodder without a doubt

The Pa'Tok paid for his stupidity. My new admiral has done a far superior job. Although he lost half of his battle fleet and all troops dropped on the Tamarian homeworld were repelled, they are indeed warriors, he held orbit and obliterated the planets defenses. A reinforcement fleet of 55 ships is now ready to launch our second attack.

If there was a Stargate Mod that Admiral would have answered to his God, no questions asked. Spacing is too good for them

Good to see the Campaign was Victorious

The Tamarions have fallen to the might of the Klingon empire. We seiged their world, bombed it from orbit for 30 turns and then demanded their surrender. They copitulated without incident and are now members of the Imperial Klingon Empire.

hmmm, sounds like perfectly sound 'Kamakazi' battle tactics to me... And you want us to believe that that brilliant tactical 'diVersion' happening over the planet was an error? Shame on you,.. from the description you gave it sounded like a Glorious Day to die for your fleet commanders.

IHMO In true Klingon tradition, their 'sacrifices' were not in vain. The fleet admiral made the ultimate sacrifice for the glory of the Empire.

Ok,.. in hindsight you might be right, but there are several ways to look at the outcome of this scenario.

Best of all it sounds like you were having fun. (Oh, and I'll mention the 'Leader flagship icon' thing to Aaron.)

Cheers!

I think we've all had the "ah, for the luvva...!!" moment with the fleet deciding to follow a stupid mouseclick.

Default Re: Oh Oh this is sweet, check it out.

formations are nearly useless in tactical combat. i just use them to move large Groups of ships close to the enemy, and then i clear all group assignments.

but i dont play tactical very often, so i guess its a moot point.

I thought those blue and red ID tags were turned on by default?

OK, time for a break, you are way too much into this game. Turn off the computer. Get dressed. Go out, someplace where there are no klingons/space games/scifi. Do a little hunting, go fishing, test drive some cars, chase some skirt, mess with the junkies down the street, torment the kids next door. Get in touch with the real world again. And remember, the AI does not and can not laugh at you.
