Galactic Overlord - Game Thread

[Trokair]

Screw sheilds, Time to fire !!!! Nothing like a little death and destruction to get the blood flowing.

[:) Smiley]

Should I have? Well, kinda late now.

[DrSpike]

Ooh the suspense.

Btw if anyone attacked me I built tonnes of titans this turn.

Round 4

Round 4

The Battle of Base2 :

Trokair's fleet mobilized and raced across space to attack DrSpike's forces. The time had come for a desisive battle to be fought. DrSpike's six newly built Titans awaited the onslaught, as well as the rest of his fleet that had all been held in reserve against such an occurance.

Trokair : Torps->Lasers->Fighters

3x Laserbattleship, 1 Fighterbattleship, 1 Torpedobattleship, 1 Fighterdreadnought, 1 Torpedodreadnought.

DrSpike : Torps->Lasers->Fighters

2x Laserdreadnought, 2x Fighterdreadnought, 2x Torpedodreadnought, 2x Lasertitan, 3x Fightertitan, 3x Torpedotitan.

Both fleets used the same tactics, DrSpike's forces advancing cautiously, expecting a trick. There was no trick. Overlord Trokair had sent his men to their deaths. Although outnumbered and outgunned, his captains fought bravely, but they were countered at every turn by the immense firepower of DrSpike's ships. No survivors returned home to Jamski's Clone. Not one.

Trokair     DrSpike
7 Torps     23 Torps    Trokair takes 16 Hits
9 Lasers    18 Lasers   Trokair takes 9 Hits
7 Fighters  23 Fighters Trokair takes 16 Hits

Result Trokair takes 41 Hits and loses all his attacking fleet. They fought bravely against overwhelming odds.

The second Battle of Base2:

Spaced Cowboy's enourmous fleet was more cautious. They had hidden behind the moon that orbited the third planet of Base2's system, and watched the massaccre from a distance. It was hard to resist sending rescue pods to save Trokair's marines and officers, but Spaced's Grand Admiral had to keep his location secret... untill it was his turn to strike...

Spaced Cowboy : Torpedoes->Fighters->Lasers

1x Torpedocruiser, 1x Fighterbattleship, 1x Laserbattleship, 1x Torpedodreadnought, 4x Lasertitan, 5x Fightertitan, 5x Torpedotitan.

DrSpike : Torps->Lasers->Fighters

2x Laserdreadnought, 2x Fighterdreadnought, 2x Torpedodreadnought, 2x Lasertitan, 3x Fightertitan, 3x Torpedotitan.

An exchange of Torpedoes resulted in the loss of a couple of DrSpike's ships, which Spaced followed with his huge numbers of fighters, hoping to eliminate DrSpike's fleet, but he retaliated fast with an inpenatrable mesh of laser fire, that engulfed the attacking fighters and lanced beams of pure energy through Spaced's fleet. Spaced had held his own laser fire, not wishing to shoot down his fighters, but seeing that they were all destroyed, and DrSpike was launching his own, he opened up at short range, causing massive damage to DrSpike's huge Titans, and forcing him into a retreat. Base2 was captured.

Spaced       DrSpike
31 Torps     23 Torps    DrSpike takes 8 Hits
28 Fighters  18 Lasers   Spaced Cowboy takes 18 Hits
23 Lasers    23 Fighters DrSpike takes 23 Hits

Results :

DrSpike takes 31 Hits, and loses all 6 of his Dreadnoughts, one Torpedotitan destroyed and another damaged. He also loses Base2.
Spaced Cowboy takes 18 Hits and loses 1 Cruiser, both Battleships, the lone Dreadnought, one Torpedotitan destroyed and one damage. He gains Base2.

The Grand Battle for Sha :

Smiley was expecting to have to defend his newly aqquired bases, but not so soon. A lack of ship building in the last cycle could leave him an exposed target - or at least that was the idea shared by the Allied Fleet of Duke o'York and Skanky Burns as they sent their ships streaking towards the Base of Sha, formally owned by Urban Ranger.

Allied Fleet : Fighters->Torpedoes->Lasers

Skanky - 1 Laserfrigate, 1 Fighterfrigate, 2 Torpedofrigates, 1 Torpedobattleship.
Duke - 3 Lasertitans, 3 Fightertitans, 3 Torpedotitans.

Smiley : Torpedoes->Lasers->Fighters

1 Laserfrigate, 1 Fighterfrigate, 10 Laserbattleships, 10 Fighterbattleships, 10 Torpedobattleships.

Although outgunned and outnumbered, the Allies dealt a crushing blow to Smiley's fleet, by second-guessing his tactics at every step.

Allies       Smiley
16 Fighters  30 Torps     Smiley takes 16 Hits
20 Torpedoes 31 Lasers    Smiley takes 20 Hits
16 Lasers    31 Fighters  Smiley takes 16 Hits

Results : Smiley takes 52 Hits, and loses both Frigates, All ten Torpedobattleships, six Laserbattleships, and 1 laserbattleship damaged. He also loses Sha.
The Allies gain the base Sha, but have to decide who gets it.


In other news, people built stuff, trained spies and so on.

Fleet lists coming soon.

Hey, where are the Doomstars?

[:) Smiley]

when you strike an overlord, you strike to kill! Those ships will be rebuilt sooner than you imagine.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Whew...specially since I sent everything.

Here's the old fleetlists. I hope Duke and Skanky are ok sharing that base for now. That kinda forces them to stay allied untill they decide its fate. I gave them half the base each = 1 BP each.

Wowie-zowie, that was an agressive round. Doc's lucky Skanky stiffed on Duke and only sent a few Frigates along with Duke's Titans...

You mean that Smiley was lucky (not Doc). Well I guess that Doc was lucky in his fight with Trok.

[Jamski]

Whoops, I do indeed mean that Smiley was lucky

-Jam

[Skanky Burns]

I didn't expect the first wave to survive, I just wanted Smiliey on his back-foot when the real attack came. Yeah, thats the ticket!

[Jamski]

I have orders from Mr "Taffy" Burns. And that's all so far.

Gentlemen...

-Jam

[Trokair]

Orders sent *Salute*

[:) Smiley]

With these joint attacks I'm seeing the "War is hell" advantage of bigger ships. Skanky, you were really lucky.

[duke o' york]

Orders sent *Bow* *Genuflect* *Kowtow* *Prostrate thyself before your ultimate Master - Jamski!*

Now if I know Jamski, this will go to his head, but not to the extent of making it into his sig.
