It was only 2 nights ago that Phraktos declared war on us. 1 night ago that Phraktos effectively fell apart. So we have only had 2 nights in which we could hit them. Of course some were going to be avoided - like I said, we couldn't hit all of them ("we couldnt cover all phraktos"). First night we hit some, second night we hit others. By now though, Phraktos has all but disbanded.

I worded that badly. I couldn't say that they
are FAnG or MISTU now, as we still have that 72 hour wait before they can change alliances. "Expressing an interest" meant "they plan to be MISTU or FAnG just as soon as they're allowed to change alliances". Yes, we could roid them dry as they are still hostile. Or we could wait until they are friendly, perhaps get some new loyal members for next round, and not annoy our members by roiding their galmates. I prefer the latter myself.

I don't like the lack of Military Scans
Although it does make the game slightly more exciting (as exciting as numbers on a screen can get...), not knowing what to expect when you land.
