On a related note, I have a colony ship in Carrier Battles Deluxe #1, which has +2% experience 
Now that some ships with guns have shown up to guard the warppoint, it will be colonizing something soon.

Re: Philosophical scenario - A chance meeting
Baron Munchausen gets his choice of cookie, ice cream or cheese, for guessing the method they used in the book.
Hunpecked gets his choice of cookie, ice cream or cheese, for his...Perspective on it.
That is all. Please continue.

What if the other race had set a self-destruct timer, or crippled their ship in some other way?
