@IH,

How's he going to react-attack me? I don't seen any ships of his in range unless he bankrupts himself to build 1 on my border and bankrupts himself further to move it. All his ships can only move 1.

Also, putting your dread there would virtually ensure its destruction as it would be targeted first with Twelve's 90%ish chance of hitting twice.

[cerveza_fiesta]

addendum @ IH

but my advice is obviously completely biased. Ha.

[twelve]

CF time for some resistance is futile machine role play talk from you me thinks.

Tats if you're ever near bath let me know, and I'll try and organise a real life game with you (or if I move back to Manchester possibly)

Also thanks for the birthday wishes Khell.

@CF he has two dreads on your border doesn't he?

No he has 2 starbases and an interceptor. A map update would be mighty helpfull but I think D'rek is a bit too busy to do that any time soon.

Edit: If you are talking about EM having 2 dreads then yeah you are right.

I have that. EM has 2 dreads and 2 starbases - unless he's moved the dreads?

[Khellendros]

Cross-post with CF's edit.

@IH

Sorry, I thought you were talking about khell making a sneak attack on the reactions. He does not have 2 dreads on my border.

I think I'd win against EM even if he did 2 dread moves, there's quite a bit of high-init firepower on that hex and a lot of missiles (after my cruiser upgrade).

IH that's something I would like even though my Mrs would call me names. My sister loves near Manchester.

[Imperial Historian]

well probably won't be back in Manchester for a year or two, but if I am I'll drop you a message and we'll see what happens.

[Tattersail_]

Good stuff. by that time I'll be a pro.

EDIT: also Khell EM has left the alliance, but you are still in an alliance on your own (you still get the extra points) to leave the alliance you have to take the -5 points hit, you lose the +2 and take -3 betrayer point)

Really? That's ridiculous.

The upside is that you can still bring a "third" person into the vortex alliance because you are still in it. I think.

[D'rek]

How does pinning with allies work? Can IH move through delta corvi because CF's ships are already pinned by my orbital and cruiser?

I would think so.

[cerveza_fiesta]

Would I get to likewise choose who I direct my pins at? Not which ships (I know that isn't my choice) but which player?

Because my ships aren't technically pinning anyone at the moment with D'rek's cloaking device

[cerveza_fiesta]

oh wait...derp

I guess they're pinning the orbital. Right.

[D'rek]

cerveza_fiesta, on 19 February 2013 - 07:47 PM, said:

I guess they're pinning the orbital. Right.

They're pinning "1 Exiles ship". I can choose, situationally, which one that is. If Tattersail moves a bunch of ships into delta corvi, somehow, then your two interceptors are pinning "1 exiles ship" that I can choose which and "2 hydran ships" that tattersail can choose.

[Imperial Historian]

I have a feeling one ship can pin one ship per player regardless of alliances but I'm not sure.

So then IH can't travel through your hex as CF would pin one Exile ship and 2 magellan ships then. Is this what you are saying?
