Yeah if you have used up your starbases then you have 12 materials left. You won't win battles against Twelve but you can pin him possibly.

Always my intention. Basically, damage control - I haven't been offensive in this entire game, I can hardly start now. I do have a couple more tricks up my sleeve for gaining VPs though.

I'm wondering whether I should place ships in the shellworld hex, in case twelve/CF break through (as is probably likely).

I'd say you are better off building ships that will stop them getting through your defences. chances are if they do get through you'd lose the battle, so better to spend resources keeping them from your important systems. I've lost track of where ships are so I can't give any recommendations as to where you should build.

I'm not sure what tats should do, attacking mu arae isn't a horrendously bad idea... but I think it's quite easy for CF to get through tats starbases if his dread doesn't return to defend the homeworld.

Also CF totally sent you that message intentionally He is that devious.

Updated Map just for you IH

[cerveza_fiesta]

Holy smokes.

The others aren't here to play the game *for* you, khell

Time to sack up and make a decision.

[Khellendros]

BUILD three interceptors, one in Alpha Centauri, one in Beta Lyrae, and one in Epsilon Indi.


Sorry, Mafia exploded

[Imperial Historian]

Flip two colony ships for materials, and build two dreadnoughts in castor.

[twelve]

Thought you were just going to build a Dread and a cruiser there IH but I guess two Dreads and a cruiser are stronger than 2 cruisers and a Dread.

D'rek, I know you are super busy modding that cluster mindfuck of a mafia game but I would really appreciate some map updates soon. It's been too long and a few things have gone down that it would be good for all of us to know the current lay of the land.

Thanks

[D'rek]

Develop Ancient Monument

[D'rek]

Stuff updated. The round marker says 8 but should say 9. The simple map is not up to date.

[cerveza_fiesta]

Many thanks drek. Big help after all those early phase moves.

This is going to be one hell of a last round.

[twelve]

Yes thank you D'rek. That is very helpful.

Research Artifact Key

15starting science-12spent on tech+20gained from artifacts= +8 science
5 Material gained

[Tattersail_]

Who's line is it anyway?

I think CF's.

[cerveza_fiesta]

I was just waiting for an update with my ally. I am trying to figure out the best of 2 courses of action and where he needs my help the most.

[twelve]

Sorry was in my mafia alt. CF if you send me a pm you can just tell me on thread to read my mail. I probably won't be jumping to my main forum alt very much until this current game is over

[cerveza_fiesta]

Move interceptor in b hydrii to nu phonecis
Move cruiser in psi capricorni to b hydrii

Pin'd !

[Tattersail_]

What is my conversion rate?

[Tattersail_]

I have 4 science and 4 money and I want to create materials.

[Tattersail_]

CF, even if you move a ship into my homeworld you won't be able to remove the population cubes without neutron bombs, you'd have to roll the dice.

[Tattersail_]

I don't think I can move my dread, what if someone else moved into the same hex? Would that pin your interceptor and allow me to move?

[Imperial Historian]

Your conversion rate is 4:1, so you could get 2 more materials total. You can only move your dread if you move a ship there. If somebody else moved there you would just be doubly pinned, unless they were your ally, but you don't have an ally.
