Okay, I've just lost the fun in this game.
It's bad enough to exploit the stupidity of AI by conning Morgan into surrendering half his energy into a loan when you know exactly that all it takes it to declare vendetta to keep the cash. It's silly enough to do that in SP, but in MP it seriously destroys the balance between human players.
But it's also annoying that quite apparently Lazerus is giving high-grade techs to Setroc for free. Sure, you've technically got the right to do that, but the University and the Hive are already the arguebly two strongest factions and if you both want to play this as a one-on-one, just say so.
Turn tossed to Setroc.Comment

If you really think it's more fair, I have played the turn without the loan from Morgan. I've no intention of declaring vendetta for the freebie money.
As for air power, Hive and University forces have been working closely together since early on in this game, when it looked like Drones would be the industrial force that I am now. The problem has been caused by Lazerus' unusually early airpower discovery, but all credit to him for that.
By the way, I haven't recieved the new turn. Would it be better if the replayed turn was used?Last edited by Setroc; March 20, 2006, 18:48.Comment

eesh Polys been down alot.
Exploiting the AIs stupidity for cash, exploiting the AI's stupidity to declare war on me
Not for free, i'm paying technologies in return for a stalwart ally and the great protection only a Hiverian industry offers because everybody knows the Hive rules

Have you been undergoing change of personality lately, Laz?

Nah, just a turn for noodles to come back after shooting some formers for a morale boost and a healthy addition to my war funds, you should know my attitude towards the AI by now

It's the second truce I refused from Aki... am I the only one who is taking this seriously?Comment

I'm trying, but Aki has already mobilized the worms she captured from me and used them in surprisingly cunning attacks to destroy my strike teams that I was preparing to pitch against her.
My offensive capabilities are down to two or three probe teams at the moment. If they don't manage to conquer some ground during the next few turns, I'm also quite in a predicament.Comment

Being crushed by a single AI... have I fallen so low? Shame on me.Comment

Rather, the CMN overdid a little..
But hey, that's atleast challening!

I also refused a truce, not to mention the 100 ECs to go with it. Aki will pay dearly for her warmongering. I'm afraid I must deal with cybernetic probe teams before coming to your aid Trotsky, but hope to sweep up the majority of her eastern front forces in 2 turns.Originally posted by Leon Trotsky
