Think I'm gonna use my other pulsar to upgrade my dreadnought again.
Right now in enjoying the fact that its 26C already. Gotta love the 3 day week man.

I'll have my move in soon.

@Twelve, what is your next move? What are you thinking? I see there is no provisional. Who is your biggest concern on the board at the moment? I am curious.

Oh, I see it wasn't a pulsar turn. I think I assumed it was for whatever reason. No biggie. I will reset your unused pulsar and show a build action on the board.

EDIT -

OK, fixed now.

You still having troubles with the board?

The offer still stands for me to email you the file.

I already just diplo'd with GP just last action round. Sorry Tapper.

I offered at the end of Round 5 but IH screwed you on that front...Posted Image No worries though. I'm still not much of a match for you.

You have nothing to fear from me in the immediate future. I am taking a breather round as I have no fleet with which to do anything particularly useful.

EDIT
Way I see it, you've got a corralled Solidsnape arming up on your eastern front and GP as the primary contendor for the GC (so he's not much threat to you). I have Khell with a grudge to my west and no fleet to fight on 2 fronts. Of course there's that looming "twelve problem" between us but if he feels like walking over either of us there ain't going to be much we can do about it. No sense planning around that.

You likewise probably can't afford to come after me and still effectively defend against SS so I offer a truce. I will not make any move whatsoever against your territories if you do the same for me.

EDIT EDIT

Sorry I can't seal that truce with diplomacy, but my diplo isn't worth much anyway even if I could - since I don't suffer a betrayer penalty.

I have run a few simulations and I think I could have 75% win against Twelve and 2 Starbases.

Attachment Battle versus Twelve.jpg


I do not have the money to initiate it this round.



I knew you would be able to beat me with upgraded Derads so I was going to use my second action to move my Dreads to the GC and build 4 starbases. But once you used an action to influence I knew you weren't going to attack me and then D'rek moved against Morgoth and then I really knew I didn't need to move my Dreads.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

There is a reason I ask, I could move a dread and pin d'rek's cruiser. That would stop her from adding that to the battle, i'd beat her cruiser and remove some population discs and set her back some. yet what would be in it for me? I think you'd benefit the most from that move otherwise next round she could have 2 dread's and 2 cruisers with all that hull which would be scary for you. So what would you offer for me to pull that move?

Edit, I wouldn't benefit because I could not possibly influence the hex or I could but I have no colony ships.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

what u think of my truce? I think it's to our mutual benefit (maybe moreso mine) but it does free you to try and knock SS down a peg before he gets out of control.

It means less than diplomacy as it is just words and there's no gain attached. Let's just say I am taking it into consideration when considering my moves :crybaby:

Anyway, in the next update, you might want to add the ambassador tiles to your track, as it isn't shown there yet (hence my offer), plus the upgraded fusion drive on my cruiser, por favor :thumbup:

I have the drive fixed, and the ambassador tiles would not be shown since they were after the last update.

Yes, I know the ambassadors would be nice, but it's not a possibility. Just run the scenarios - that should be all the assurance you need. I'm not much of a match as an attacking force.

He said he is upgrading his dread so either he is adding a computer or a plasma cannon. I'm not sure why he wasn't more specific before he up and vanished again though.

That is such a crock that you wouldn't benefit. D'rek would be set back as another strong competitor to win improving your chances, you could influence a valuable hex next round, and if next round you grab the artifact key you would get 30 resources for the price of 14. I'd assume most of them would be materials and you would be in a great position to win the game. I wouldn't know why you wouldn't do this for your own benefit.
