Well I'm going to skip Tats as nothing he does will change my orders and he can't take the Gluon computers before I do so

Research Gluon Computers

Convert 2 money to one science.
Spend 14 science.

My ships aren't good enough to take the GC yet I don't think, as they stand my dreadnought has something more than 50% odds of being destroyed before it fires a shot, and I need to hit it 4 times. I don't think the odds are worth risking any ships.


I ran yours and the ancient dreadnaught blueprints through the simulator. With 2 dreadnaughts vs the ancient, you've got a 67% chance of winning (with your current blueprints). If you change the Hull part into an Improved Hull, it goes up to 94% with 2 dreadnaughts.

Well I can't do it this turn as I don't have the moves! Next turn maybe.

Anyway upgrade again, improved hull over the normal hull on my dread, and a +2 computer over a normal hull on my starbase

EDIT: speed round!

We will let Tattersail decide whether he wants to fulfill his pass provisional or not.

Yes...

but you should ask yourself why I am building the cruisers in that particular hex... maybe I am just worried about you.

I haven't seen a need to take a reaction yet. I still pass.

The only thing I'd really do would be to build an interceptor or something, but there ain't much need unless someone was to threaten me.

I'd say that's fairly good odds, you fire first, you hit 4/6 times, you fire 6, and you need to hit twice to win. roughly 90% odds if my maths brain is on today.

No it is good play by you in case I decided to invade you whilst your ships are away. I did think about it, but I don't think that would suit me long term. I'd prefer to be peaceful with you whilst grow Orbitals and Monuments elsewhere.

Yeah i didn't do the math as I have always stuggled figureing out probablilities but I knew the odds were pretty good. I would just like to know exactly how good.
