Huh?

He added an extra drive so he could reach the GC faster. Probably just put the two plasma cannons over where the default ion cannons are on his blueprint. I'm assuming he already has the fusion source on the blueprint. Haven't checked the player board in a while to know for sure.

[Tattersail_]

So my dread should have 2 plasma cannons 2 flux missiles fusion source 2 neutron computers and a drive

[cerveza_fiesta]

I'd like to confirm a provisional pass, but I have no clue what everyone else has up their sleeve!

This is easily my favourite game so far. Nice to be able to be so active early in the game and not twiddling my thumbs until round 7+

[twelve]

So who are we waiting on now? It seems forever since we've had a move and the other Eclipse game looks like it died as well.

From the update it looks like we are back to waiting on Khell assuming still no reaction from D'rek.

Uh, nothing now. Better later.

Especially if Twelve could get that traitor card taken from him.

Yeah I would greatly appreciate that.

Continue passing.

Just finished a game on the iPad as the planta. 6 handed on hardcore against, a Terran, hydra, Draco, Mechanema, and Orion. Got a great start. Walled the Orion off and they never were able to connect to anyone else all game and was able to get neutron bombs and plasma missiles in round two. The machines first three explores went against double ancients so even with a dread to start wasn't able to do much. The terrains and Draco started fighting each other and the hydras never was able to get any materials to build ships to fight. At games end I had removed all hexes owned by the terrains, dracos and hydrans and was two moves short of doing the same to the machines. They ended the game with 1 hex. the Orion had four but we're never able to get advanced economy so never had any money to do anything with those hexes. I only ended up with 31 points but it felt sooo satisfying to destroy all those players even if it was just against the computer.

[Blend]

We really should try to get a group game going on the iOS version - it'd be interesting to play Eclipse online in a different setting than this, and I think there's at least 4 of us with the game (Gnaw, myself, Twelve and Khell if I'm not mistaken)...

[Khellendros]

Oh, PASS as I can't think of anything better.
