Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Another one: Summit of the Hill.
Edit: Or just call it "The Summit"

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Gandalph vs. Sparhawk stardate 2407.7
The battles have been raging and my fleets have largely been victorious, including the battle of Sillinta where my fleet was outnumbered but I sent it in to attack anyway and escaped with little damage proving again that trained DUC's are better than untrained PPB's. The battle ended with Sparhawk having 1 warship and 4 minesweepers remaining. He used those ships in a glorious "middle finger in you face" move to destroy 4 of my colonies in Sillinta while my fleet chased him about. I finally caught and destroyed those ships, but major damage was done. I am pressing on and with a little luck, should end this one by turn 100.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
My suggestion for a name would be to shift all the names down one. The current bottom would become the base of the hill. (That's what I had it named originally and changed it) The middle would be come the bottom. The top would become the middle, and the new level would be called the top of the hill.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Congrats to Mathias_Ice--we've knocked out 12 turns in 2 hours, or one turn every ten minutes. Let's see if that happens all weekend--we should get up to, say, turn 160 by the end of Saturday.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Gandalph vs sparhawk reply.
Yes, so then the problem from three different LOST games has been solved in on line: Damn ship/fleet training fac  .
Most of the times I got more ships, but was tottally blown out of the skies!!
Totally forgot them, I was totally focussed on ppb or combat systems. Well maybe its to late for this game, but be prepared for some surprises gandalph  .
And next time I get every one back
...damn ship training....  ....@#$%!@$. three lost games by something stupid.....

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Thanks to DavidG again. He updated the KOTH program quickly and now the hill has a new level. I decided to name the levels like Geoschmo proposed because crest and top sounds too similar to me (though I could be wrong, English isn't my best skill  ).

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
Glad to be of service. Ship/fleet training, as you now see, is indeed very important when it comes to battles and IMHO much more important than super weapons. After all, super weapons aren't so super when they can't hit.
