It means I just had 75 colony ships touchdown on turn 50.

[edit]And your losing seven ships to mines in one turn and seven more in the next helped put me back in first place. Not that you really wanted to attack that planet--you just thought you did.

Mark vs Gecko stardate 2405.7

Gecko surrenders.

I'd pushed him up into the top third of the map, and had a fleet rampaging round glassing planets that he didn't seem to be able to oppose.

Thanks Gecko, it was a fun game.

I tried something different for this game - apparently it did not work. Thanks Mark for a good game. Now back to stalking the bottom of the hill...

Blue Swede shoes?? When did Asmala become King?

He hasn't beaten me yet, although that's mostly because I can't do but two turns a day, most of the time.

Stone Mill vs RexTorres, Turn 37?

Rex is doing everything slightly better at this point. I'm on the edge of my seat. I think I had better starting position than he had again, too. He is pressing me well in the south, and chased me out of some nice systems. I tried to hold up his colonization, but he finally came through en force.

Northern position still holding, but not seriously challenged.

Very crafty, he is. Used ship capture on one of my 97% damaged colony ships at the frontier system. He'll have to repair it, though. Nice move.

This is going to be a chess match. He is doing well anticipating me... let's see if I guess right anticipating him. I'll have to. He's playing a smart strategy.

Sounds like it's getting interesting already, Stone.

Question: Not being a sort of capture-ship person, I didn't know you could repair captured ships. I know you can use them and you can examine them. But you can't customize them, can you?

You can repair components which you have already researched. If the colony ship still had its colony comp intact, then it could be analyzed. This is rare, since its high structure dictates that it is usually hit first, but not unheard of.
