The original was holding its own. I just downloaded your new Version Last night. I havent fulled with them yet, so as soon as I do, ill let you know. Matter of fact, I started in the same system as the cylons and they had me down to 2 planets.
They fared pretty well in the games I was playing, got pinned between them and the Centauri in my Last game, decided to pull back and let them sweep into each other. As luck would have it, the 2 must have decided that since their names both started with "C" there was no need for hostilities with each other and I was forced to retreat back to my homesector and mine the heck out of all WPs in a Last ditch defense.
