Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"? - Page 21

I drew first blood this turn.

You shouldn't be giving out detailed empire information like that Preacherman. Of course if you would like to post the location of your homeworld and strength of defeses at that location I'll be sure to send a reception party.

Congradulations Preacherman. You are the first King of the Hill. For as long as you can defend your title that is.

Good game. My strategy failed me because you weren't close enough for me to hit you early, and not far enough away for me to prepare my defenses for your attack.

Back to the bottom for me.

Yup, good game and an entirely new strategy for me you used there. with only 10 or so planets it was an awesome job you did there. If i attacked 10 or 20 turns later it could have been a totaly different result.
for future games i will not underestimate intel anymore...

Man these one on one games are fun!! So nice be able to play 20 turns in a day as opposed to some PBW games were I've played less than 10 turns in the Last 3 months!

Yup, one on one games are fast. With more players the game is much slower. For example Borg Open Challenge 2001 (started with 20 players) is still going on and it is almost 2003.

There is not much too it really. The game is the same as a simultaneous game. The server will e-mail you a turn and then you can either reply to the e-mail and attach your plr file or go the the PBW page to upload your turn.

God save the new King!!!

Now, someone knock him down!

Well two strikes against me so far in my match.

1. 1FSTCAT found Rock colonization in Ancient Ruins;

I have to work my butt off to keep up with his having rock and gas.

2. One of my stars randomly exploded by a natural event. All ships and planets lost in the system.

As if he needs the help! He's doing a very nice job defending himself and harassing with his counterattacking forces.

Not looking good for the 'ol Mill!

dream on!

but since i have 2 weeks or so to the next game, i'll enjoy myself up here where the view is so nice.
And if one of my subjects feels that he is up to the task and challenges me, i will show him his proper place, down in the mudpit with the rest of the lowly serfs.

long be the reign of king preacherman! bow before his might!
