I don't get it. What's supposed to be funny about this?

IH felt that his existing dreadnaught wasn't overcompensation enough and needed to make it bigger?

j/k IH we love you!

Question about upgrades:

You know how you can only upgrade two things at a time, right? Can you re-use technologies? For instance, if I say, 'upgrade interceptors and cruisers with improved hull' this round, can I then in the next round say, 'upgrade dreadnaughts and starbases with improved hull'?

Yes, absolutely! Once you have researched a ship part, you can add it to your ships as many times as you want. You could do 8 actions in a row of just upgrading improved hulls onto ships.

I think that was less than a minute waiting for a response! Thanks very much!

Ok, I will UPGRADE cruisers and starbases with the improved hull, in the empty slot please.

Noted.

EM always seems to show up after you say his name, so "EM! EM! Where for art thou EM?"

[cerveza_fiesta]

I realize I'm not clear on that either. I just researched fusion source. In my next upgrade action could I take 3 fusion source ship parts and put 1 on each of my ship types?

Or does researching just give me the right to a single ship part corresponding to that resesarched technology. I read the rules but it isn't exactly clear.

EDIT - others answered my question before I could post. THanks.

Where in the blueprints specifically do you want the plasma cannons? Replacing an ion cannon each?

Ahhhhh.
A great mystery solved!

[twelve]

So now for the big show down. Convert 2 science for 1 material and spend 16 materials to

Build 2 dreadnaughts.
One in 381 the unknown named tile
one in 225 Eta Cassiopeiae

Which way will I go George? Which way will I go?

[twelve]

Guess what Tats you get another action today!!!

Oh and CF and Tats that comment about where will I go was directed towards IH. I'll either help D'rek or I will attack the Ancients.

[Tattersail_]

Okay my turn, what did I want to do
