Well just started my koth game with Gand. Game 2 we are playing in the Koth world.

All I have to say is Brutal Start.... I now know how cursed I am with these games....

And just so you do not think the Tesco Start is not real. In Survivor I am doing Rollo's turns.... His home start system has 3 breatable type planets... Mine has zero

2404.1 A huge Fleet of 300 battleships leaves base to engage the Nodachi forces.

2404.2 Nodachi's Excorts flee in terror upon hearing the news and he surrenders.

You mean I might have a chance this time?

Guys, I have made a change to the Koth Default settings. The official default for Koth games is now a small spiral arm instead of a small midlife. I have done this because it give both players a better chance at getting a decent start in the game. With a small midlife there is too much of a chance of one player being boxed in and haveing access to much less then half the systems in the quadrant. The result is a predictably short game with an anticlimatic ending.

The midlife quadrant has less of a chance of this happening.

As with anysetting people can change the map if they can agree on a different one, but the spiral arm is the default now.

Nah, I'll be patient, I guess.

LOL... 3-way dance steel cage match... How do we use the map editor to do that? Can we also edit in come steel chairs and tables? Leave it to Cheeze to relate everything to a wrestling match...

Nice to know Asmala is waiting outside of the ring to pound one of us. It seems I may spend more time as a #1 contender than I may on top of that hill (if lady luck would be so kind to me).

[now, over to ESPN for the pre-game analysis...]

Rambie is unavailable for a time so I am canceling our game and I am gonna play Primitive since he is waiting on an opponent. Once Rambie is back he can have whoever is available then.

Cool,
That may teach me some humility.
