No doubt true but don't give up on the fun that can be had from slaughtering billions by poisoning their food. Just ask Zarix.

Maybe you can get the next person you match with to play a game where you don't pick 20/20/bezerk?

Sigh,
25 turns into my first KOTH game, and it seems like I’m already screwed.

Or maybe the choice of huge research, production and construction bonuses still can carry the day. We’ll see.

Any comments on the other choices ?
Planet-type & Atmosphere.
Peaceful or bloodthirsty ?

You can not see your opponent's happiness type.

I was more worried when you stole my ships faster then I could build them.

I had to researh ship capture to get my own ships back.

With few changes in your strategy you would have already totally wrecked my empire. There are many alternatives to using ships in SE4. They just are pretty rarely used.

The Art of War mod is supposed to fix this (when it's eventually finished...)

I don't read this website everyday like I used to, but what the heck is KOTH? I'm assuming it's some sort of PBM game, but the abbreviation escapes me. Will this strategy you're talking about work in a solo game?
