Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"? - Page 88

Speaking of games finishing...

I gave an update on my game with Dreico on May 3rd...5 days ago. Since then, his turn submissions have gotten even slower (if one can believe that

) with only 3 turns submitted (and that includes the Last half of the weekend).

I sure hope I don't have one of those people who lose interest when they start losing the game.

Update on my game with Rambie. Our turns have been getting more regular, usually 2 turns a day now. I have the obvious advantage in this game, I feel pretty confident that I will pull off the win but you never know what he may have hiding behind his border systems. We are at turn 95 and still no one has made a charge into enemy systems, although that will soon change in the coming turns. The Raging Ragnarok Empire shall prevail against its hated enemy! (Hey, I have to sound confident to keep my troops moral up right?

)

Hehe, yeah, ask Primitive. He had his "monster" fleet run over about 2 planets and a through a warphole (I think) and I cashed it in!

Do you mean you surrendered to Krsqk?

No, I was cursed with overcautiousness, and failed to press my advantage. By the time I rebuilt my fleet, he had mined me into about a tenth of the quadrant.

I researched mines and finally swept his field only to find a slew of sats on the other side. He's a resourceful player, and now he's in first place (not sure by how much--how many planets do you have, tesco?) for the time being.

Slynky, what turn are you on?

Turn 66, I think. Or else it's 2406.6. Or something like that.

That was a gambit by me... I figured out the map while your were working on the homeworld... I had mines in 2 turns so i just took the hit on the homeworld for the exchange of blocking you in to 7 systems. Since you only had duc on your ships i knew that csm 1 ships could counter your ships then i could block the warp points and mine them. then drop the sats on them. Since there were only 3 to worry about. And then expand into the open systems in the background. I have a few planets....

Yea I used the homeworld as bait... And funny thing is that it only hurt for about 10 turns... Then i was fine.

See you soon

turn 65 K.O.T.H. Tescosamoa vs Krsqk
Krsqk surrenders.

Move Tesco up.

Thank you for the game Krsqk. I had to think quickly and very differently as your an aggressive player who attacks attacks attacks.
