Default Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?

My match with Dav is now over. My fleets had formed and I invaded his territory and was taking no losses against his fleets, they just couldn't take on my advanced ships. One thing I noticed that didn't help Dav is the use of Torps, all I needed was enough PD and it was a slaughter most of the time. I only got to invade about 2 systems before he surrendered.

But thanks for putting up a fine battle, Dav. You had me worried many times in that one system (I forget the name of it) when you blocked my single ships from getting there.

You mean missiles? Torps are also useless but then you didn't have needed PDC.

Yeah, I meant missiles. I guess thinking back on it now he used a mix of both Torps and Missiles, I just got the names mixed.

Hmm, a mix of missiles and torpedos aren't very good combination in the stock game.

Warlord Ragnarok did you want to have our KOTH rated? I'm happy for a rating.

I didn't even think of that. I'm willing to go with a rated game.

K.O.T.H. Grazic vs Alneyan 2409.5

For the past year or 2, Alneyan's forces were within our controlled space hitting the odd planet, and a single cloaked ship made it into our Home System and destroyed our Home Planet. {Note to self - At least build 1 mine on Home Planet next time}.
The 2 EEEvil fleets were making head way into his territory, taking out some planets and 2 of his fleets.
But now that both of our fleets have run out of supplies, Alneyan still has a large fleet in our territory, not counting his solo raiders and now all but 5 of our planets are rioting, we have surrendered to Alneyan.
Welcome done and thanks for a good game Alneyan.
Next time as I said to you, I want fighter technology disabled.

A great game with Grazic which highlights once more my incredible silliness and my infamous luck. (They might have minefields? So what? Send in the warships without any proper scouting, and may they be successful. It even worked save for a single cruiser which came upon a few rogue mines.)

As I told you Grazic though, I had another fleet in my system protecting my warp closer and my brand new warp opener to join in the fun in your systems and to make a few nice fireworks. (I am very talented when it comes to blowing my own fleets against a supposedly weaker fleet, or even "protecting" a very vulnerable warp opener by putting a non-cloaked warship on the same sector. It does marvel when an enemy fleet is heading towards the aforementioned sector. )

Great game and good luck in the future Grazic, and I would like a rematch sooner or later as I told you. With my beloved Light Carriers on the run and the other toys that is.

Silly double post. *Grumbles* So that it will not be completely useless, I will ask Primitive about the settings he would like to have in our upcoming KOTH game.
