I think that is me. Have to even up the odds a little, yes he'll get to hit first but he'll have to roll a lot of 6's.

please continue to pass for me until the end of the round. I can't see getting set up any better than I am now really.

I haven't been paying much attention to be honest. Usually, computer and hull wins out over all in the simulations. You seem to have lots of both, so it's likely the best setup.

So you haven't noticed that Tatts has removed his computers and hulls in place of shields then? :p

I'm up against +4 and 5 computers that have initiative over me, if I leave them as they are then I won't be able to hit back, neutralising his computers means he gets to go first but he will be looking to roll a lot of 6's, his missiles will become obsolete and it will increase my odds, I think :p

Tatts, I was just checking out your chances in the simulator, and it said this was an illegal build. And indeed, with two phase shields you're using up 7 power, but your fusion source only has 6.

Thank you Khell.

The simulator can't seem to handle that many ships. I was only able to get it working if I set it to one battle.

You lost that battle Tatts. Your interceptors were immediately destroyed by twelve's missiles. Then it was just a matter of pounding away at your other ships. You did take out his interceptors, the dread, and one starbase though.

I'm debating a reaction. Tatts can you summarize your blueprints for me?
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I'm debating a reaction too. Can we get a full board update? There's a lot of factors.

I don't think wind speed and flight velocity of European versus African swallows is a factor in space.

The simulator does kinda break when you use a lot of ships...especially when they are different types. Even calculating my bunch of interceptors v. SS's ships last round (only 2 ship types but many of them) the sims for 1000 runs were taking 3 minutes.

It will eventually complete the sim, but it takes a long time. Just hit run and leave the tab in the background.

I think I am passing depending on what Twelve does. Then that is end of the round. Most probable that Twelve will win but miracles happen.

So Tatts can you verify the following?

Your Dread has +2 computers, -4 shields and 5 hulls
Your cruiser has -2 shields and 4 hull
Your interceptor has +2 computers and no hull
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

No, his dread has +3 computer, -6 shields, and 7 hull.
His cruiser has -4 shield and 6 hull.
And his interceptor has a waffle iron and an ice cream sundae.
