Where do I get the Bolo MKXXXII blueprints?

[cerveza_fiesta]

I thought khell had put in a move, but now folks are saying he took it back?

Can somebody confirm? I can't see where he took it back.

Yeah, well I want Tapper to pimp his cruiser's initiative with positron computers and fusion drives, then bum rush you in the galactic centre, killing your dreads with ion missiles before you even get a shot off (and his interceptors cleaning up your starbases if you build them). I want it, but I doubt it is going to happen.

Same post. I crossed it out.


Anyway, I'm going with my originall hopeless/pointless plan:

BUILD 2 STARBASES, ONE IN BETELGEUSE, ONE IN DELTA ERIDANI.

[cerveza_fiesta]

oh wait, nevermind.

Original post where he had it.

He's ok to renege on the move. He did it within a few minutes of posting it and I've generally been allowing it all game.

[D'rek]

Well then, back to Morgoth it goes. And I will wait and see what he does before submitting mine.

One upgrade and my Dread's inititive goes from 5 to 9 so no amount of pimping will get him to shoot before me. That was the main reason I grabbed the flux missiles instead of overreaching for the plasma because of the inititive advantage.

[Gnaw]

so we're going to morgy. what turn is it?

[Khellendros]

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Nobody knows but Jesus
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Glory, Hallelujah

Sometimes I'm up
And sometimes I'm down
Yes, Lord, you know sometimes I'm almost to the ground
Oh, yes, Lord, still

[Khellendros]

If you get there before I do
Oh, yes, Lord, don't forget to
Tell all my friends I'm coming too
Oh, yes, Lord, still

[cerveza_fiesta]

running some of the sims for a fight in delta eridani. Should be interesting.

Make or break for both of us, though I'm showing the odds in my favour with Khell using his best upgrade combo.

If I did betelgeuse, things are different. That is a sure-fire win no matter the disposition of his upgrades

I think you should split your forces. Go for both. You don't have much time before they're upon you CF! You have to do it

NOW NOW NOW!!!

That was a key to my starbase's success last game. Made of glass, but with double posi computers and a guaranteed first shot, they were tough to beat as a defensive apparatus

[cerveza_fiesta]

@Khell

Saying it right here and now to remove any trace of bias or cheat:

If I manage to lock you in Betelgeuse this round, I will hand off responsibility for the supernova roll to someone impartial (IH maybe).


That is....if I AM going for khell. I could also be happy with my winnings and consolidate what I have managed to scoop up.

You should factor Betelgeuse with two starbases as Khell can convert $ to materials to get a second starbase.

IH is going to a conference

[Khellendros]

So you're all aware - I am currently begging/threatening physical violence to Gnaw off-thread to invade CF.

[cerveza_fiesta]

@Twelve,

the nice thing is that if he spends that money on building another SB then he can only afford 1 upgrade, which considerably improves my chances.

[Solidsnape]

@CF

I'll put in my next provisional turn then.

Going use a pulsar MOVE with Geminga.
Move my cruiser one space south from Spica to Gamma Valorum.

I also want to flip 2 colony ships this round. To populate materials planets on Sineis an Chi Draconus.

That is all.


Edited from Sineis to Geminga.
