Just had to try for the 1,000. (OK, shoot me!)

You can ram fighters in tactical combat; the limitations of multiplayer/simultaneous/combat AI prevent it on PBW. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Cheeze vs Asmala - turn 51

Asmala's kicking my butt left and right. It's not over yet, but in most ways it might as well be. Still, you never can tell.

Any turn now I expect Asmala to say,

"How are you gentlemen! All your base are belong to us! You are on the way to destruction! You have no chance to survive make your time! HA HA HA HA!"

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I know what you mean. I think he's the best player I have played against. He's like a machine. But a machine with the neural ability to go against its programming and whip out surprises.

I think I'm getting ready to feel a bit of Asmala in Mark the (un)Merciful.

Heads up down below. Looks like the Dundas Rednecks are about to take a tumble from the top of the hill. It's a long way down now. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

BBegemott vs Phoenix-D, turn 52

I expanded into about 3/4 of the quadrant and find myself in 1st place all the game (have scored 530K). But there were no big combats yet, so things still might change into my opponent's favour.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Oh come off it, I haven't shot at you once yet!

BTW - if you're Online, so am I; let's play! And I'm likely to be here - barring TV breaks - for the rest of the evening (and some of the morning if necessary).

If you hadn't had mines things would be less in your favor. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Just remarking on the little worries your Escorts have caused me...and that you were in 1st place for so long. Since I posted, I have been in 1st place (which feels better....but).

You have to compose yourself, Cheeze http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif Pretty soon you'll see my main fleet. I can give you a hint: my fleet will come along the same route that the previous attack fleet. I could have attaked earlier but I don't have hurry with this game because I have to wait long to get a new opponent after this match is over.
