Taz, you ARE the dude! (  )
Just a screen print, cropped, and photoshoped.
Alas, I am a better narrator than a player  .

Perhaps, but when reputations are on line and newbies want to win, seems like the natural choice. Of course, it's one of the reasons I see games ban Religious trait.
(Edit: And it follows that it helps to take the same trait so it can be traded)

Hey, you talking to me? 
If it were a 6 person free for all game I would tend to agree with you. But this was a special game, so things are done a little differently.

Sorry, guys, for the delay. Just got back from Kentucky on business and will hop to the turn now.

Re: Challenge Match
The Eldonia Clan, RexTorres, sent a fleet maurading into my empire. He bypassed the first system he entered and moved deeper into my territory obviously intent on wreaking as much havoc as possible. It killed 10 - 12 planets before being destroyed itself. We intercepted and destroyed another fleet attempting to move into our territory before it could do any harm. Altogether Eldonia lost about 40 ships. I lost the aforementioned planets. The new problem is the opposition's intel attacks. I'm losing a ship or two each turn to mutinies. I guess that pay raise we gave the military wasn't enough! Damned disloyal traitors! And now there's a new problem. Someone is spreading lies on some of our colony worlds and riots have begun breaking out. The Emperor has declared martial law and we're upping everyone's daily Scotch ration. Hopefully that'll quell the problem. Oh, and did I mention that the head of the IIA (Imperial Intelligence Agency) has been found guilty of gross negligence for failing to foresee the threat now facing the Empire? As penance, we are a theocracy, he will now serve as chief altar boy at the Our Father of the Rigid Staff church until he has absolved himself of his sins.

Re: Challenge Match
"Our Father of the Rigid Staff"...
LOL!
Reminds me of the Triple R: Rigid Rod of Reality!
So far, though, our plan is working fairly well. Lull them into a sense of false security and then strike! I have assembled a fleet of 37 battleships and sweepers for over 200 mines...I'm ready. Little did they suspect it would be ME, Talisman-less as I am, to be striking deep into territory!
