Gandalph. Are you gonna win a game?

If you do it quick you will get a rematch against me. I just finished off Nodachi and there is currently noone else waiting on the next level.

Thank You, Thermodyne.

I sent you an email a little while ago with some observations about our game.

Until the next...

Now that's just my luck! First I get my arse handed to me by Geo and now I get Thermodyne! Oh well, the gravestone should read N...O...D...

Actually, I wanted to tell Geo thank you for a fun game. The lesson was painful but I did learn from it!

Not necessarily. We started at mid-tech level and he has e-built WP's that took care of my pesky frigates overhead and some I had on the way. This is what makes playing a human challenging, the ability to change tactics to suit the situation. Being as we are only 3 turns away from each other, I doubt this will take long.

I had a two player game once (not a KOTH game) where we started in next door systems. Even so the game Lasted nearly 80 turns. The other guy was a master of deceptions, defensive emplacments and counter attacking. Even though I got a sizeable lead early it took quite a while to put him away.
