Oh yeah, and the lumberjack tune (now remorselessly cycling round and round in my head) reminds me: I'm working on a Monty Python design name file. How would you like to design a Beautiful Plumage Class Cruiser? A squadron of "Philosophers Song" fighters? How about a Mr Gumby Class Space Yard Ship ("I AM NOW GOING TO FIT THE CONTRA TERRENE ENGINES" *Bang* *Smash* *Crunch* *Crunch* *Crunch*

59 names so far, suggestions welcome.

bugger, you have found out about my cunning plan to roleplay the Galactic Bar & Grill Bash a la Life of Brian

I was looking forward to responding to offers of trade alliances with '20 shekels you must be mad" and "alms for an ex-leper"

Try a forum search for "LCC", and pick up threds from around July / August Last year. You'll soon get the idea.

Anyway, getting way OT. Continue on PM if you want to talk about it further.

Hey, if I hadn't designed it without lifesupport, It'd have muscled out of that spacedock, and VOOM!

Getting back to the topic for a bit, I'm currently playing a TDM Gold game where I'm in 2nd place with a score of over 1 million. The Toron have a score of over 2.5 million and still growing. Their research, intelligence and resource numbers as well as the number of systems and planets (over 250) are staggering.

I've finally gotten the upper hand on the XiChung Hive (which plagued me from about the 15th turn on) and bumped them from second place. I'm playing nice with the Toron right now because I'm not ready for them yet. I'm sure I can out slime the AI eventually but with the numbers he has, I'm sure he'll give me a tussle. Looking forward to the challange.
