I haven't deleted anything, but I only saved a couple of the PMs that I sent out.  I've debated with myself just how bad of form it would be for me to basically ask people to send me my own letters back for posterity.

Like I said, when we're done, we should repost all of our old correspondence and agendas, as a full post-mortem.

I've kept everything sent to me.  I have an amusing thing or two to reveal at the end of this.

Oh I know the Nova mod / House rules. I'm considering adopting it for SP.

mainiac: It's a shame. It could've been excessively awesome.

I was away for a few days. Will do my turn today.

Also, I alone have 6 pages of PMs and I'm a late comer to his.

My turn is done and save sent.

And I just sent it, because I'm the laziest fucking guy on Earth.

Mainiac, was it really necessary to blow up every Eye ship and garrison you could reach?  It's the fucking Eye.  What was I going to do?  Ogle you to death?

That is a very real possibility.  You can't kill what you can not see.

I'm gonna have to agree with mainiac here. If RTS's have taught me anything, information collection is one of the, if not the most, important things a military needs accomplished. The person who has the most information is the likeliest to actually win a battle, and it's my understanding that the eye has the easiest time actually collecting info and watching their enemies.

Yes, but all movement takes place along direct space routes, and then you blast the crap out of each other in cities, because there's no reason to be anywhere but cities.  I don't need to see you - I'll just flood Assault Legions onto every city I don't bomb into oblivion.

As the player who has been in practically every PvP battle we've seen so far, I disagree.  A tiny amount of information can have a huge impact, especially in space battles.   If I had the choice between a dozen dreadnaughts and galaxy wide sight, I'd pick the later.

It's called being facetious.  Besides, you obviously don't have to choose between those...

turn done.

edit: ah, right. I've just installed this on a different pc. All seems fine, but my tracker legions have a anti-tank-tank(from native) icons, instead of the proper one. Anyone knows why?

Can anyone guess what happened to the computer I fixed up to replace my previous broken computer?
