Heart of Fire Tracking Thread #2

[Snowflake]

See this is where I come different from a lot of you. When you go into this kind of deep level techniques, my ears shut off automatically. I'll read strategies and use the ones that I can understand, but I've never spend that much time to try to beat the system. I get my enjoyment from other aspects of the game.

But I guess this is why there are men and women. I'm content to just be myself, and watching you boys fight to control the world.

[Kody]

For me it's not about beating the system. It's about making easy discoveries.

My real work requires heaps of patience and effort to think of new things. Whereas it is comparitively easy finding new strategies and techniques in SMAC. I should know better than to go for the easy satisfaction, but I still do.

If I wanted control of the world I wouldn't have beaten such a hasty retreat from the ACDG as soon as the start of the university war approached.

[GeoModder]

Don't start generalizing now, Hong.
Frankly, if I understand a quarter of Kody's 'tecniques' it will be much.

[Snowflake]

Turn sent. Lily almost died. What a scare.

I might as well post my own PMs.
Words have been edited out and replaced with Capitals.

-PM #1-
I've sent an updated turn to Jamski.
It's up to him whether he plays on it or not.

Kody, my base is located at BASE. Please send a unit over.
I'll need some protection while I rebuild my infrastructure.
You can either take my bases, or let me rebuild.

I guarantee that I'll be a formidable challenge once I have.
Of course, my tactic is TACTIC.

-PM #2-

what I didn't know was if I really wanted contact with you.

Think of it this way. Would you rather have me trade techs to you, or to some other dude I met?

I have nothing to offer you trade wise

That's not true.

I'm not interested in helping someone rebuild that is just going to turn on me later.

Then bumrush my bases while you still have a chance?

I guess I need time to first figure out what the implications of helping you will mean first.

Make your time.

And before someone notices the tech list, let me bring up my old comment:
"When 4-1-2s clash, morale is irrelevant.
Running Wealth and Planned, I can outproduce you.
Make you friggin' time."

And question whether I have IA, NLMath and Doc:Mob in 2115.

Hey I played 2 hours ealier then I promised (10pm on the day I receive my turn).

[Enigma_Nova]

Now where's my turn?
I want to kick some mindworm ass!

[GeoModder]

Come on, little ones, 'nigma is waiting for you...
He likes some mindboiling eggy breakfast...

Go forward, and multiply...

[Enigma_Nova]

Die, scum!

[Kody]

Sounds like he's having fun.

[Enigma_Nova]

Heh. Killed 2 of the 3 offending mindworms.
One set of mindworms is still patrolling around.
You -do- get the rocky terrain as a defence to Psi attacks, right?

With a base being planted next turn, and one of my bases at size 2 to build a pod in 4,
I am once again atop the leaderboard.

Now for the problem of building new formers.
And the other problem of having to pick -ANOTHER- tech off the IA beeline! Ack! >_<''

Turn to Jamski

[GeoModder]

IOW, it's now safe for Kody to let his rovers approach?

[Jamski]

2116-->Kody...

Can't have been too bad for EN - #1 on the Powerchart...

-Jam

Amazing I must learn more of these techniques to come to an opinion.

I still don't quite understand resource pulsing
