I'll do my best. At first here's a general description of the game.

It is a 10 Player Game ... 6 being human players (plus some neutral races). We are in round 7 right now. I made first contact with the Rage in round 3.

My race is a custom made race with 2000 race points (all empires have 2000 RP). It's a Schemer race and I picked the Psychic tech tree as a special feature. I enhanced Attack by 10% and also Intelligence.

What tech levels do you have?

O.k., right now I have

Ship Construction: 2
Cargo: 1
Propulsion: 1
Satellites: 1
Base Construction: 1
Weapon Platforms: 1
Rock Planet Colonization: 1
Neural Computer Interface: 1

Projectile Weapons: 2
Missile Weapons: 1
Planetary Weapons: 1

Right now I'm researching fighters (but I only have about 16k research points per round available because of the blockade ).

What's your research / intel / resource production?

Normally I have about 26k research points, no intelligence points (not researched yet) and the following resources 18k minerals, 3k organics and 1.5k radiactives per turn. 50k each in stock.

Do you have any other allies / enemies?

There is one ally ... I have a trade alliance with this race ... this turn they offered a military alliance which is quite good. On the other hand they don't want to get involved in the conflict with the Rage.

Only enemy: the Rage Collective.

Then there is a neutral player (none A.I. I would guess) ... 1st contact this turn.

How does the Rage compare to you in terms of fleet size / empire size?

Less planets than me (they only colonize none breathable atmospheres) but better fleet (high attack bonus, lots of frigates (about 5 I would say)). But I am not sure wheter I have seen their whole empire yet.

So ... that's about it.
