I might have gotten another couple systems deeper into your side of the map if I had sent all my ships in that direction only, but I had no idea you weren't right above or berlow me at the time.

I'll have to call you on this one a bit. From my nearest homeworld to where we first me, Detran, it Detran was my 8th jump (not using the new warplines I made). Detran was your 3rd jump from your nearest homeworld. We finally settle with you getting Fezzran (which was the 4th jump from your nearest homeworld and 7 jumps for me). So, at my best shipyards, the homeworlds, I had 6 jumps to make it to the front (and worse considering 2 of my homeworlds were one jump further back while your 2-homeworld system was nearest). Soooo....

Re: How good are you? Find out...
Well, it felt damn fast to me. I see what you are saying though. I did have about the same number of planets at the point we met, I just hadn't spread out as far from my home systems. I guess I have more improvement to make in that area yet. I have a few ideas that might help me in that area for this time around.

Re: How good are you? Find out...
primitives challenge 2: turn 69
primitive just wasted 90 BBs and 60 base ships with 100 DN and 100 base ships (i got about 90 of his ships first shot)
i think its safe to say he wins.

Re: How good are you? Find out...
Thanks to Parabolize for a great game.
It seems like we both enjoyed it
I would recomend trying this setup to anyone. If anybody is interrested I can host the game.
Full tech, 5 planet start on this map:
It would work great on Low tech games also

Re: How good are you? Find out...
(bump)...and
Game update: Geoschmo vs Slynky: Challenge Part Deux 2406.3.
Geo controls a slightly bigger part of the galaxy than I do (though I don't know how many are "worthless"). With no mines in the game and no stellar manip, it's very important to control vital points  . I've been pushing him back in a few places but it's scary. There are 4 defensive/offensive areas of much importance on the map.
I've nearly reached the "two" stage of the game: Nearly 2 million points, over 200,000 research, and over 200 ships.
