In All

[douglas]

I have played two PBW games to a victorious end, though both were ended well before the final extermination of all my foes. The first one, RTV Dertran, was declared over when it became obvious that I had more military might than every other player combined (I had a strategic reserve bigger than anyone else's entire navy) and had safeguarded my core worlds against raiding/riot run tactics. The second, All Rock 3, was ended by the score % of second player victory condition just when my nearly invincible crystalline dreadnoughts were about to hit the front lines. It was a foregone conclusion at that point anyway, as I don't think anyone else had the technology to do the required 180 damage per shot to even scratch those dreadnoughts, much less numbers to match mine.
