Vega Battle (204), Drek vs Tattersail:

Engagement Round 1:
Tattersail's Cruiser rolls one yellow hit - where do you want it to hit?

[cerveza_fiesta]

@ twelve,

Yeah, I was running some of the numbers too. Odds don't look *amazing* past the first round for sure, but you have about 65% chance of hitting 3 cruisers and about 90% of hitting at least 2.

Probability of more missile hits drops pretty drastically beyond that, but every little bit helps.

I have a good chance of at least 2 hits if all my interceptors survive somehow, and a good chance of at least 1 hit assuming 1 gets killed right off the bat.



Luck could win it, but odds aren't heavily in our favour past Round 1 I don't think.

[D'rek]

Beta Leonis missile round: 3 of Twelve's missiles hit (for 2 dmg each). Twelve, where do you want them to hit?

Exactly as the odds predict they should.

Take out three cruisers.

Doesn't EM have 2 Dreads in Beta Leonis? He has one ship left.

And that opening round couldn't have gone better.

Edit:

I seem to have fired a lot of missles at the ancient from my interceptors. I only have three in the GC so 12 total missles fired from the interceptors and dread combined not 12 and 6. But I guess it's mute as the first 12 had enough hits to not matter.

yeah, I thought there were 2 PMs on them for a bit there... fixing

[twelve]

So go ahead and settle the GC with an influence disk and settle the Science and Material slots and Grey slot with a Money cube.

[EmperorMagus]

Kill as many of CF's guys as possible with my hits.

[cerveza_fiesta]

IT WON'T BE ENOUGH!!!! HAHAHAHAHA


Btw...agreed good alliance buddy. Round 1 could not have gone better. You were right on the probabilities, but my interceptors far surpassed expectations.

EDIT, sry EM, that was mean. the machines apologize for the momentary lapse non-emotion.

Fuck, now what?

I guess now we get to bomb the shit out of planetary populations, yes?

@EM - your population cube in Beta Leonis was destroyed. You must choose before upkeep and cleanup which graveyard to put it in.

So you get the first option to settle and populate the hex then I do if you don't want it.

Also D'rek I would like to change my allocation of population cubes on the GC if that is okay.

Material and both Grey planets. One as money and one as material.
