Whoo hoo!  The Pink Skins thank the PB&J's for the wonderous tech exchange.  Now we can colonize atmospheric hostile planets.

In our 3 way game I just discovered that corvettes and destroyers while ok for space combat can't eliminate even militia on the ground so I accepted the ROM plea for peace (until I can build something with space to ground missiles).  :P
Aw, crap.  Sorry Shelldrake, I should've thought to have given you guys a heads-up on that myself.  I'm just so used to the small capital ships being unable to target ground units that I didn't even think to mention it.  :-[

You're quite welcome.  :) 

...PB&J's?

No worries..I usually play a race that has access to Devastators so I forgot about the limitations of corvettes and destroyers. BTW Winchester has fallen to the empire...now on to Avalon!

Martok,
FYI Avalon has fallen to the Empire but I will not accept any offers of peace until you get your licks in against the QaQa. I might even press on and try to take their homeworld!  ;D

Cool.  My fleet will be assembled and ready to go in another couple turns, after which I'll proceed to Cornwall and then Camelot.  Am still putting together ground forces for an assault on Cheddar. 

I congratulate you on a successful campaign!

Update:  In my 2-player game with Shelldrake, I'm nearly ready to strike.  Two more turns, and my fleet will be assembled. 

And because I'm a bastard, I just accepted the Qa-Qa's offer of a defensive alliance.  They're paying me ~3000 credits up front and another 1300 or so per turn for the privilege of me stabbing them in the back...not that they know this yet.  ;D  They're going to find out very soon, though! 


Shelldrake, just so you're aware, I'm seeing a lot of Qa-Qa ships heading towards their capital.  I can't tell what sort of vessels they are, but the numbers appear to be sufficient (at least at first glance) that whatever force the Assembly is putting together at Qa-Qish could be a threat to your fleet in orbit around Avalon.  Just wanted to give you a heads-up! 




In our 3-player game, all is quiet at the moment.  The Teyes are clearly not happy with me, but just as clearly they're reluctant to attack for the time being.  The Florians and I are getting along well.  Interactions with these "Humans" have been very fruitful thus far, and we look forward to further contact with them -- they're a bit odd in our opinion (no scales, feathers, or fur), but they seem pleasant enough.  :P

Then the Jellutions should be pleased with our latest offer.  We may not have scales, feathers, or fur, and we walk the ground, but we've got cool toys! 


We've also sent some tech to our other friends, the Linkin park empire.

The Qa-Qa fleet at their homeworld intercepted by infiltrator scout and proved to be corvettes and assault ships so I should be able to hold Avalon. Just in case I am building a couple of orbital lasers to supplement my defences. :)

Sweet.  We like toys.  :D

LOL.  I'm glad I'm not the only one who's made that word association...  :P

The AROM just made a demand of tech from me.  Of course I told them to go oil themselves.  Let's see if they declare next turn.

I will be in a postion to renew my offensive against them in 2-3 turns. Then its hammer and anvil time!

Nice.  Perhaps it's time then that I make a move.  I have to re-arrange my fleets and get my landing parties ready.  3 turns should have my navy ready.  It's composed mostly of small ships but I will have my first heavy destroyer online in about 2 more turns.

Damn.  Wish I was in a better position to help you guys. 

Even what indirect support I can offer is limited:  Although the situation should start to markedly improve in the not-too-distant future, my cash reserves are pretty much nonexistent at the moment.  And I've already given W8taminute all the techs I have currently.  (At least I think I have; I'll double-check this next turn here.) 


There is one small silver lining:  Given my defensive alliance with W8taminute, I can declare war on the AROM's if they do attack him, which will give them something else to think about.  In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they're already aware of that...which might cause them to stay their hand for the time being.  Something to consider, anyway.

^Good point Martok.  We must consider our next moves carefully.  I for sure need those 3 turns to re-org and re-position my forces before doing anything.  That is unless he foolishly declares against me.
