FG: Galactic Overlord III Game Thread

[GeneralTacticus]

Still need orders from Boshko, Spike, Luciwalker, Skanky, and (to a lesser extent), Chaunk.

[joncha]

Will this be the turn that somebody finally takes Chaunk's bases?

[GeneralTacticus]

No comment

[Skanky Burns]

Ok, orders in now.

[Skanky Burns]

Orders edited now.

[DrSpike]

Why do I need to send in orders?

[GeneralTacticus]

Because you've been reincarnated. Get busy, you have an uphill battle ahead of you.

I keep forgetting you've been eliminated; I only just removed your name from my Orders file. Anyway, I still require roders from Boshko, Chaunk, and Kuciwalker.

[GeoModder]

24 hours have past since last round posting...

[GeneralTacticus]

Boshko et al have until tommorrow morning to send in orders, or I'll post the turn without them. This is getting annoyingly common; maybe there should be a concerted effort to eliminate a few players, to reduce the number of orders I need.

[duke o' york]

I'm sure that DrSpike would send his orders in a lot quicker than Chaunk seems to be.....

.... and it would also make the rest of the game far more interesting for Jamski.

[GeneralTacticus]

I have a sneaking suspicion that Chaunk's absence will soon become irrelevant.

There is nothing like a gm who processes orders on time to get the players to get their orders in on time.

Ditto. We know GT can do it too, he did it for Nuclear War a few times.

Strict Limit on Weekdays

[GeneralTacticus]

Okay. Given that Boshko was online just over an hour ago, and has sent no orders, he deserves what's coming. Turn posted shortly...

[Jamski]

Yippo!

Round 3: Culling the Herd

General warfare continued without a break this round, with the only new factor being diplomatic: Overlords Jamski and Skanky Burns, both descendants of ancient, proud families, had chosen to make an alliance. How well it will stand the test of time remains to be seen, but it has already achieved its first victory – and it’s first defeat.

Before the fleets of the alliance arrived at their respective targets, however, another strike was launched. Overlord Spaced Cowboy, the target of Skanky Burns’ limited strike, sent a single cruiser loaded with fighters to seize the systems of Overlord Chaunk. With neither a defensive fleet nor a strategy, the occupation went uncontested, and Spaced added another three bases to his empire.

Meanwhile, across the galaxy, a similar scene played out near the bases owned by Overlord Boshko, the famed squirrel-breeder. Though he had a more consistent record of activity, a communications failure at his HQ prevented any plans from being transmitted, and his fleets collapsed in confusion before the fleets of Overlord Jamski. The ships were rapidly destroyed, and troops from houses Jamski and Burns rapidly occupied all key locations on the planet.

Things did not go so easily for Skanky’s ships, however, for their opponent was well-armed and had an actual defensive plan.

Finally, Kassiopeia’s fleet made a last bid for life, sending one ship to attack Overlord joncha and one against Whoha, no doubt hoping to find one off on campaign.

Unfortunately for Kassiopeia, though, this was not to be. Both ships were immediately engaged and destroyed by local defense forces, and the days of House Kassiopeia were over.

[GeneralTacticus]

Horrible louck, btw, Kass. Of the four targets you wanted to attack, both of the two who you chose not to hit were either away from home (Jamski), or else sent no orders (Kuciwalker).

[Kuciwalker]

sent

[Kuciwalker]

and I sent BEFORE you posted that

[GeneralTacticus]

A bit late, but given that nobody's orders actually affected you, you can send in retroactive orders as long as you don't attack anyone.

[Whoha]

problem with first fight, you have:
Fighters
laser
Fighter for Skanky and that should be FLT shouldn't it?

[GeneralTacticus]

I see... all problems will be fixed when I get up, I'm too tired right now.

Kuciwalker - sorry, but when my internet is moving at about the speed of a hibernating sloth (while leaping from window to window like a monkey on amphetamines), it can be a bit hard to check that kind of stuff. I've added your results to the table.

[Kassiopeia]

Oh well, it was Do or Die, this time it was Die. Better luck next time.

[Whoha]

also sent.

[Kuciwalker]

sent for this round

[Jamski]

Good work, Skanky Your share of the conquered bases is, I trust, acceptable?
