Our bp all went terran and distwhored, along with a good chunk of the rest of ascendancy. It worked out fairly well in the end with 4 top 60 planets and heartless who was staggeringly inactive, it took him two and a half weeks to even hit 1k roids. We didn't get real incs until ct/nd/vgn hit our gal around pt 500 or so after seemingly staggeringly overrating the strength of ascendancy's position. Amusingly our ct galmate exiled in that night and had his hc demanding he hand over gal statuses. Got a good xan from rock before that and an urwins and a tgv who exiled in when I saw 11.7 advertising they'd have free slots at pt whatever and I exiled planets so we'd steal the people trying to exile there :( Disappointing enough round alliance wise, we crashed far too many fleets and we didn't really do anything that interesting although the whole sking conflict was cool. Overall I found terran pretty strong defensively with good faking options, personal favourite being chims/dems/levs on etds. The de fleet really needed a viable targetting option without faking but that would be my only complaint. Someone really needs to do something about cathaar though. Highlights of the round were the first attempt to sk me and the second attempt to sk me. Also using shadows/wyverns to def xan fr/de inc on on achi when ct hit my gal and presumed it was just a fake bomber fleet (although sun_tzu will claim credit for that one but it was my idea in advance!) 1.2 mil value dead or something like that. |

That pretty much sums it up. I managed to get above 2k roids once, and lost them 3 days later. I rather liked playing zik, but some glaring issues such as the complete inability to do anything to de-incs did get on my nerves at times. Also being ridiculously high value(because of having to maintain 3 effective roidingfleets at all times) meant that I got more than a few people suiciding for xp(which further contributed to my constant shortage of roids). I'd probably have played this round quite differently in hindsight, although I think I would still pick zik. Also, in hindsight, I blame Foxman for telling me Asc was a good alliance to join :( Had I defwhored in CT I could have rocked! :( |

Maxed cons as demo about tick 800, ended up with about 30 odd dist 30 facts, 60 fc's and 30 ish sc's. Pretty glad i didnt dist in the end considering i was getting more res than pretty much all of the dist whores even with 800-900 less roids. Had 2 big prods during the round, let the first one out about 4/5 weeks in and the last one came out in 2 parts with about 100k chims a few days ago and 130k pegs this morning. Only had chims/pegs in prod, to mess up co/bs incs mostly, ended up with a truck load of chims as they were far superior anti cr/bs than attempting to flak either bs with rangers eff or de vs tycoons. their wasnt a vast amount one could do vs fr/de as a ter without taking huge losses so it was mostly a case of getting shadows ingal for them. Tried to make my planet as self sufficient as possible for the most part, think i got like 2 oog def fleets all round. My fleet was pretty defensive, with the emphasis on not losing so many roids as opposed to out roiding losses and had trouble landing solo all round. attacked with cr/bs in one fleet then faking harpies + pods in another, probably had more success with the fake than the real thing. Only really used fr/de to attack with once when we hit 11 7 and ended up fc'ing some poor guys bw's from ingal def that tzu ended up stealing. big thanks to my gal that deffed me all round as well. |

Originally I had been attacking with Cr/Bs mainly, but *all* my incs were BS so I could never launch my CR anymore so I switched over to Co for attacking (with zik attack partner) and Dealer/Ranger for def. The amount of times I prelaunched Dealer for out of gal def was crazy, well done to our DCs on catching those STOOM co fleets on prelaunch again and again. I crashed all my brokers on in gal def one night, which actually worked out really well as I rebuilt all Co from the salvage and lost almost no score. I didn't build any Dist, concentrated on FC and SC. My galaxy was very interesting, at tick 336 we were ranked about 45th, I tried to find someone to join late, but no one would due to score. We kept motivated and exiling ppl, and got really lucky with exiles. I had 0 other Urwins in my BP, after the shuffle we had a total of 3 in gal (including a scanner) and after about a week we had 6 Urwins. That made ingal def really strong for us, while I had thought having many from the same ally in 1 gal was a bad strategy, it really wasn't. We finished with 7 Urwins in gal. (I still find this funny.) We kept attacking and defending and the gal finished 7th overall, so we had quiet a climb from the bottom. Special shoutout to BlueAdept, you rock!

I never had many incs, only really when ptargetted, but struggled to roid successfully due to the availability of anti-bs and the crappiness of terran de but because I didn't lose many roids this wasn't a huge factor.

Big shout to everyone in 2:9 I really enjoyed it and thought 6th was good tho I get the impression U guys were disappointed. Big thank you to Subh, I wasn't a defsink or a flagship honest! |

Most fun was when i got to land pure illu fleets on terrans who had run everything away. Only happened a few times though. Even though i could attack ANY etd or terran out there with zero loss, i almost never landed in the last weeks. Xan FR seriously sucked, xan fi....lol. not even worth getting into that. |

I distwhored at first was 3rd before getting bashed (3rd most roids lost, spectres fleetcaught and lost ~25-30 dists). Eventually abandoned the sinking ship that was the galaxy I randomed into and got into 10:5, which was great. Props to Urwins for keeping my planet down; your excellent defence stopped 20 out of 20 attacks in one week. Xand frigs are awful late game if you have to use them in a war. Also, the whole bomber thing was annoying. I lost about 400k bombers to people splatting on me or my defence throughout the round. They expected me to run, if, for example, they lost 400k value and I lost 70k after salvage. I have nfi what was going through their heads, I even told them I wasn't going to run and sent previous breports, but still they landed and each of them lost ~100-200k score even after XP :( My planet was poor, but I had great fun advising ND HC and occasionally being allowed to get involved. Urwins were partly my obsession since I thought they were the strongest alliance, so apologies for your lack of sleep reese :p |

Started preround with me leaving Urwins to join InSomnia (for BP spread), and then eksero abandoning BP few days before tick start due to inet issues. Exiled from BP about tick 300 after being triple booked+ for the 5th time. Landed in an ok gal where still i received heavy inc until ND/CT/Urwins started p targetting each other. Joining InS was a terrible mistake, HC went missing as soon as ticks started. I was running attacks daily, DC'ing thro the night several days and trying to keep InSomnia in the political game. Got fed up of this around tick 600 (I didnt signup to HC a bunch of players i dont even know that were less than appreciative/co-operative) and left (with my focus turning predominantly towards my planet rank at this point). Was allianceless til VGN accepted me, was kicked shortly after for attacking solo (their targets were pretty useless for me). Eventually ended up where i'd started, back in Urwins having managed to avoid being p targetted mostly until CT/ND found out (apparantly a lot later). Was never expecting to finish top 20, especially after the amount of fleets i "crashed", roids i lost, incs i received and the whole not having a stable ally/gal most of the round. But hey, i enjoyed it i guess :P |

This round was doomed by first losing my cr fleet due to a meeting that took somewhat longer than planned (bureaucracy ftw!) and after that crashing 130k co into hidden prod dealers. After that purely focused on building co and xp whoring by teaming up. That went pretty well :P I got 5-waved almost everytime I had 500 roids, probably by having low value/high score relatively. Still, 5 waves? Easy roids I guess :( This round pretty much s*cked for ETD as the cr fleet couldnt actually land without heavy losses. The co fleet was okay, but still you needed team up with a zik and/or another ETD to land a decent target. In short, I will not easily play this race again, whatah mistakah to makah. :( Zik/ Xan/Ter are for me the most stable and enjoyable races :) My gal was okay, many def whores. On the one hand positive, at the other hand it made climbing galranks hard. I enjoyed my gal, did not enjoy the round tbh for many reasons. |

Went for mass CO and xp whoring right from the start and carried on until about tick 300 in the same fashion. Exiled into 11.7 and changed my game plan a bit to suit value more. Continued with the CO fleet though and had a lot of success with a zik attack partner throughout, not having to recall a fleet for probably half the round. Kept growing with very few incs and my value got too high to effecitvely xp whore anymore. Built up my tycoons and rangers and started trying to utilise the cr fleet a bit with very little success; think I landed them once on a huge teamup. Oh and all the xan fi came from a crash on bigbad on the last day :O Ended up with about 800k value trapped in production after Urwins landed SKs on me with 6 ticks to go. Was pretty bad luck to lose 2 of each factory I couldn't afford to lose I think but fortunately didn't cost me a rank in the end. Lucky exile, few crashes and great ally def despite being out of tag for almost the whole round led to my best round yet :) |

Yeah I did, but at that stage the (2) orders were worth about 2-3mil of each so it was pretty neglible.

I started this round with every intention of playing a covop planet, but quickly fell behind to to an increasing work schedule. Money wins :) When I was checking in "actively" the first few weeks, I was stealing a fair amount of resources and knocking out amps/jammers for Ascendancy. I would like to have done more, but managed a good ratio of success despite limited attemps...finishing with 19 out of 24 attempts succeeding. Launched only one attack against one of the cath bot planets in 1:1, hence the scarabs/widows. I have to give props to booji and the rest of my galaxy for not exiling me despite my horrific lack of activity. Thanks guys, it was a pleasure! |
