Re: United Fleets
Lol, no. I "accidentally" leaked we were grounding fleets for another fleetcatch to give us the night off, so to speak.
UF is very much alive. IN FACT, now that you mention it, I'm going to open #unitedfleets to the general public. So really, ANYONE could come and claim waves on Asc planets. And it's not like we don't know where your fleets are at all times.
This is just getting started mate.
Edit: Going to make a seperate announcement....

Re: United Fleets
Lol Benneh.
My activity R24 was below par, and THAT was why I wasn't playing at the same level as the rest of the gal.
activity != ability (you ****ing idiot)

To sum up, if you're not in a dominant position, don't ****ing fleetcatch.

Re: United Fleets
I like VenoX's beautifully weighted, back-handed compliment of Kenny. Best post in this thread. Then again, I suppose he had to post something worthwhile eventually.

The way Denial was forced to play last round though gave no room for any FCs and we would have been stupid to even try using that tactic.

the round asc won when cronix/tronick (one of them) was fc'ed and crashed?

Ascendancy would of won if Golan, meatwax and inforza hadnt been fleet caught in the first place, kinda just evening it up to a point where none of the fleet catches were really necssary, although LOTS of fun.
EDIT: remembered the obvious after i posted.. tronick being fleet caught wouldnt have affected #1 ally since NoX were never in the hunt anyway.. 2ND EDIT: and that was the round before the one Hanzi is talking about, DONT POST WHEN TIRED KIDS!

Dispite all the succesfull fleetcatches in r26 on asc people, the ally still won a pretty solid victory in the end, which only backs up the arguement made by a few people that its a tactical mistake if you are looking to win.

Ascendancy didn't win because we weren't bothered until it was far too late. The fleet catches are pretty immaterial when we have momentum. Look at r26 for a time when we got our arse in gear at what happened to be exactly the right time and fleetcatches didn't count for anything.
There's nothing more dangerous in this game than an alliance with momentum as their score starts to grow at a highly elevated rate and eventually become unstoppable. Doesn't have to be Ascendancy.

You don't have to be Ascendancy to win Planetarion, but it helps!
