You all obviously don't remember that I had nova burst in game 3. I've been aware of it's potential against interceptors since watching CF romp through people in the last round of that game.

Don't worry, I am not pissed off. A little bit upset with myself for not noticing, but that's what playing from phones and work gets you .

@Tapper - are you really using Aldebaran? You've only got the money cube on it, which gives you +2 money, while most of your actions are costing -2 or -3 upkeep. If you're planning on getting advanced labs or materials, makes sense to hold it now but otherwise there doesn't seem much point in it for you unless you need it strategically, while I could make more use of it with advanced labs (plus I'm thinking of getting advanced materials).

Gnaw I want to open up access to the GC, am I able to go and take out Mu Cass, hex 108?

Grrr. Jus tfound out my doctor appt is two hours later than I thought.

IH, if you didn't think I should have got those you should have used the veto? That's what I gave it for. *shrug*

@morgoth,

I'm contemplating the advanced labs and doing another orbital (since we're quickly getting to the point where more orbitals is a waste of resources), but I'm loath to leave Formahaut so weak. With your new drives/sources can you get some forces to Formahaut this round? I have enough leftover money that I can fortify the starbase hulls and between us it should be enough to turn away and would-be attackers.

The alternative is pivoting right now toward military. Grab some computers before they're gone and a probably a source, then upgrade and build more bases.

I lean toward the first, because with 5 rounds remaining after this, a stronger economy can only be beneficial. Between us we should be able to hold Formahaut, yes?

Celebration amongst the war planners has delayed the implemenation of the mechanemas own war machines, word comes through from the research department that scans of the exiles new technolog which allows them unprecedented production capability have been analsysed and replicated.

re current map on page 1 - {a} didn't the interceptor from Arcturus move to the GC and die?

No

{b} my Pulsar disc should be on UPG, not MOV. {c} Imrpoved Hull is in the wrong spot on the tech board {d} a lot of the resource counts seem wrong - mine, Tapper's and Khell's all don't match our upkeep posts, for certain

Oh, fuck me running. She's right. There's major errors in that thing.

? Mine seems correct. What am I missing?

[cerveza_fiesta]

Just waiting for feedback & planning with my ally.

Sorry for the wait. I just want to know if I should be pivoting toward military or if he can help with protecting our territory for this round, so we can build our collective economy.

D'rek, if you're thinking of getting labs and adv. materials, maybe you should take Tau Librae? It's all advanced planets. It's in my space but uninfluenced, and I'm not currently planning on getting advanced anything.

Or, alternatively, Taps can de-influence Albebaran and take Tau Librae himself, while you take Aldebaran.

I don't have advanced economy though, so Tau Librae is expensive for me. Aldebaran and Phi Piscum for me both basically pay for themselves with the money planet and give me an advanced science planet. But for Tapper Aldebaran is basically just points as it costs as much to keep it as it pays him.

I plan to influence Phi Piscum soon, probably this round, but if Tapper is willing to give Aldebaran to me I can do both in one action for max efficiency.I don't think he'll want tau Librae, for the same reasons as you. Even if none of us get enough advanced techs to make it worthwhile, it does still have an artifact that could be useful later, too.
