I think if I was you maybe do the computer on the cruiser. Imp hull over the shield on the dread.




next upgrade if needed:

computer over regular hull on dread.


And either an ion cannon or



a second computer on the cruiser.

[Tattersail_]

I can do 3 upgrades in one go. So definitely swap computer on cruiser for pos comp.

Definitely upgrade dread with improved hull over drive

I like the cruisee firing another round so do the two ion cannons.

You are the orion in this game so no you can't. In Chatclipse where you are the Mechanema then you can.

I also confirm my provisional to research the tachyon Source for 6 science.

I never realized how physically big the game is.

It really is! I've played a 9-player game in-person only once, and we used an 8ft-wide octagonal table and it was still pretty squished.

Any reason? The upgrade is okay though yes?

I think he wants you to build a dread in 213 and attack Khell in the warp portal while I nuke D'rek.

[Morgoth]

Dropping nukes on D'rek is an honourable activity.

[Imperial Historian]

Playing eclipse in real life, but I'll stick a quick order in.

Build dreadnought and cruiser, in the hex next to the hive world and the warp portal.

I was thinking you could build the dread, move to attack khell and upgrade later, but I guess you can still do that.

[Tattersail_]

I was confused you said I can't attack khell.

The Draco agree. And wish to point out a couple of equations to the water loving sentiences of the lower part of the map:

AntiM Cannon + Nuclear Drive + Positron Computer = 6 units of energy

Fusion Source = 6 units of energy

11 mats + 3 unused colony ships == 1 dread + 1 cruiser == 2 cruisers + 1 interceptor == 1 cruiser + 3 interceptors == 1 dread + 2 interceptors == 4 interceptors


Those would be in addition to the 1 dread + 2 interceptors already built. Fleet Admiral Kzaargh and Chmee Gnaw think that all of that means somebody is going to get the excrement bludgeoned out of them.

2 dreads + 4 interceptors all armed with AntiM cannons and splitter tech. Or 1 dread with 6 interceptors.

The Mechanema are dealing with the Moss. The Draco are pledged to rain terror on the Lyrans at the first hint of aggression from them towards the Orion.

Which means that the Draco have, at best, 2 Kreera class interceptors available to harass the magellans. Currently the magellans do not appear to be in active opposition to your goals. I politely suggest that the ability to send 24 individual pts of damage at the targets of their choice makes the magellan past actions and statements irrelevant.

Upgrade - Add Positron computer over electron computer on cruiser, and over electron computer on the starbase.

For the past few weeks communications had been cut off. Role play was something once thought of but not thoroughly practiced. Now with communications back up maybe some will trickle back into the game from ourselves.
