Keygen's Alien Crossfire Part III

[Reggy]

SMACX 2269 to Hobbes

We are pleased to see only one last alien city left. We thank the people of Hobbes in their quest to rid the planet of these creatures!

[Black Sunrise]

I still say the Squids are trying to found a base to the west of the shore city I took. Their sea pod escaped, and I haven't seen them since.

[H0bbes]

Merry Christmas all. We had a Christmas day of 39C (102F or so I believe). Damn hot!

Back to the game: We are proud to announce that BS's pessimism was unfounded. The last alien base has been conquered and their faction eradicated. Now the game gets real interesting!

Turned to BS.

[Black Sunrise]

Buried in snow last night. Woke up, unwrapped toys with the small person. And a move waiting in my mailbox!

2270 to Keygen

Merry Christmas all!

Rush Build - Rush Build - Rush Build.

[H0bbes]

Snow? That's kinda hard to imagine from where I am! We had out third day yesterday, of 39C. Today is going to be cooler- only 34C!

The turn is turned.

Damn spore-launchers!

To Keygen

And the Lord said, "Behold, the people is one, and
they have all one language; and this they begin to do:
and now nothing will be restrained from them, which
they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and
there confound their language, that they may not
understand one another's speech."

Expect more launchers. Hercules approaches Perhelion.

[H0bbes]

Spent the day at the beach! The turn is turned.

[Reggy]

Hello all! Well it appears that the Apolyton servers have been down for some time.

The game is entering an interesting erra. We have no real enemies left to face, at least so far! Time for some good old infrastruction construction to try to catch up to Black Sunrise.

Turn to Hobbes

[H0bbes]

ON.

[H0bbes]

On to Black Sunrise.

[H0bbes]

On.

[Keygen]

OK, I am going to call for a sea level rising next turn.

Do you all agree to pass that messurement?

MY 2277 to Reggy.

[Black Sunrise]

Well, brother, you can call for it.
But I'm afraid the sea level rising (more than it already is, which is a considerable amount) would interfere pretty severely with my terriforming. I'm afraid that while I am prepared to vote on it, I am not prepared to vote for it.


Another issue that I was wondering: If one of us transcends, would you all like to continue the game? I was considering a four-way-free for all brawl might be interesting, especially since usually a transcending faction makes insane sacrifices of units/facilities/weapons research to transcend, so it would be an interesting fight.
Also, I'm wondering how it would be to fight other humans in a high-tech war. Orbital pods, nerve gas, mindworms, locusts, planet busters. Each adds a LOT to the game, but the AI doesn't use any. Since this will be my second MP game I've ever finished, I wonder what it'd be like?
We could have an immediate brawl, a five year wait, then a free for al, a longer wait, whatever. We could have 3 on 1, 2 on 2 (first place with last place on the power graph versus middle two), whatever.
Some thoughts and suggestions.

I'm open to your ideas Indra if the rest are.
