The Non-violent High Score List

[jab2565]

Well it's hard to be non violent when a creature is planning on destroying the galaxy. Still I didn't find one powerful weapon to use, no PVC no multi, in fact in order to get the ship I had to cloak past the defenses to get to the ship.

Here's my latest score.
Not a single shot fired, not a single weapon mounted on any of my ships. I used the Aethric Mirror, but nothing else.

"Medium everything" game, science ship.

Score: 25980

If I had had the Crystal Fish and the Cloak, I would have done better I guess. Not to mention the fact that I haven't found a single black hole (I used the Hyperdrive all the way), and that the Muktian embassador wasn't present.

To be continued!

"Medium everything" game, used the Terran Frigate (Military mission. LOL.)

I managed to find the Hyperdrive and the Mantle of Babulon early. Then... Esmeralda stole the Mantle! Darn! But I found it again later, in a trade emporium. Lucky me.

I then got the Timeless Bauble, and wisely asked for the Crystal Fish. I made "friend" with all races present and even got 3 ambassadors onboard (including that small furry guy with gems). There were no Urluqai or Tan Ru in this game, this is a very rare event! The only thing I didn't find was the Anti-Graviton Shunt, otherwise I would have made some extra points visiting the black holes I guess.

So no weapon was used (anyway they were rare in that map), no Mirror, no Vacuum Collapser.

35,434

Large map of course. Science mission.

Mirror is pretty much necessary for the non-violent win.

I could have gotten a few more points if I had gotten the toy robot sooner, and if I had ever gotten the cloak of babulon or the gravitation shunt. Otherwise a near perfect victory.

I even used the mirror to save a Tan-ru fleet from a supernova.

Wow.... That's quite the act of charity.

[Captain Kwok]

I got 826 points without killing anything.

[Strider]

Got a 38,311 without killing anything, nor sending anything into a black hole, using the Science Vessel.

[Puke]

does it give you points if ships are destroyed in combat, but you dont kill them? like if you are watching two other races duke it out?

[reverend]

6749 on a small map. (Demo, will try for more with the full version)

[PvK]

24,138 - almost - Science ship, large map, didn't mean to fire a shot, but some aliens surrounded us by surprise so I think someone fired a shot even though I hit Retreat All immediately. I did send some violent folks into a black hole, too.
