Missle Infantry would probly be cheapest (3 rows?)

Our ships can be upgraded imediatly to either configuration at the 50 and 80 Credit prices I mentioned (atleast thats the cost for the Regular ones, not shure of the Love Boat)

I think Triplex would be a good place to build Missle Infantry. We can switch the current production and only loss 4 minerals. Then we Can hurry the rest of it rather easily. We might even protoype Nerve Gass too! Its got the Comand Center and the unit could then be in good position to load up in transports and sail off towards the Hive.

Yes, good idea, then Apolyton Prime can produce en masse missile units there after.

CyCon tentative military moves MY 2160

  • Interceptor in MegabyteVille flies to Pi Square.
  • Logic Loop Probe Team to Pi Square.
  • Impaler Transport north of Triplex to 59.59, and on the way dropping the onboard scout in Thermal Tassagrad. The question is of we mindcontrol the PEACE crawler en route or not.
  • The MegabyteVille cruiser to Atlantis and rehomed to Atlantis, then 'L' for repair. ok, Impaler?
  • Unity Rover on 78.66 moves to the direction of Pi Square.
  • The Locutus cruiser goes into Atlantis, then 'L' for repair.
  • Impaler Transport near Locutus moves to Thermal Tassagrad and picks up the scout that the other transport left at Thermal Tassagrad.
  • CCS Love Boat moves to 51.53 (guarding Locutus from a distance).
  • Impact Marine in AbortRetryFail(ed) moves to Mega Reboot.
  • CCS Spitfire: can't decide, to Pi Square or Locutus.

Do you plan to attack the Pirates, personaly I would leave them alone, we already broke one Ceasefire with them and they have started building that Colony Pod like we told them too so it seems we should let them move north like they have been planning. They have said they dont want the Hive using them as a base and would Eject any Hive units that go their by breaking Pact. It also seems the Hive is going to send its attack force through Uni territory rather then through the Atlantis Ocean so we should consentrate our air power in Portal and Pi Square.

I'm inclined to leave them alone, but their will be thunder and lightning when Drogue finds out...

Anyway, IMHO, there was a (small) majority for letting them alone in the last poll. So, if after checking this poll tomorrow I still have this minor majority, I'll send a truce. Agreed?

Btw, we will need some fleet in the seas towards Hive/Angels, those ships are still around there... I can see the Hive cutter in an Angel base screen.

I've been thinking: If thinks start to go way downhill, why not offering or selling tech to the AI's?

They have agreed to sell them after they are finished migrating. For now we they need them to build that Colony Pod.

I dont think we can spare the Probe teams for stealing right now, I think all the Probes should go north.

It's all his fault. If you check his avatar all will be clear.
Don't destroy CyCon as another god once did.

Besides, the base is called Locutus of Chiron (TM), so no connection whatsoever with you.

Tentative MAF orders for PUT, MY 2160bis

Well, let's be frank. There were appearantly quite some reloads from the Drones, which indicates they made a heavy offensive. I though the Drones would consolidate for this turn.

Ok, in the assumption that we have any PUT base left:

  • If Gardens Point still is ours, and a defender is in that base: obliterate it after scrapping the facility which gives back the most ec's.
  • Same for Cairns.
  • Daintree will surely be gone, but if not, no need to do anything inthere. The base isn't worth anything anyway. Even obliteration wouldn't do any good.
  • I have the most hopes for this base. Normally, a missile SAM chopper should be finished. I propose to use it to fly to Cairns if that base is conquered to check the number and sort of defenders. If only some choppers and light unit, use the chopper to attack them all. Then the (hopefully) still available missile drop scout in Caboolture can drop next to Caboolture and take the base back.


The grander part of this strategy is that then when the turn comes in CC hands, the unit in DBTSverse Portal should be upgraded to a drop scout by using the workshop directly, not Cntrl ShU. I realise that then a lot of units will be upgraded, but this way perhaps we can 'declare' war at PUT, attack and take Caboolture, and obliterate it. I'm not so sure if this is possible anyway. I don't know if pact units can obliterate bases of pact members, or if a 1 movement unit still can obliterate a base after it is taken (it's movement is finished then). I need advise for this.

Also, I haven't checked the rules for this game so throughly, thus this plan can break some rules. I need to look it over.

Put an end to popups!

we should test ouf it its physicaly possible first, I am all for obliterating Caboculture and Cairns but I dont raely see the point of taking out Gardens Point, it can act to slow their advance and when they do finaly take it their wont be much left for them too use.

Also it will be an excelent target for Probe attacks after its taken, otherwise we must sail further north and risk detection and destruction by Drone Aircraft.

O, I don't expect to see GP as PUT base anyway. Drones and Hive need something to conquer this turn

Since the turn is already in Hive hands, I won't be around to check the PUT turn. I hope that you, Impaler, can assist Obstructor in this.

Terrible error on my side, I decided not to obliterate Caboolture when I had the chance.

CyCon is open for a Drone/Hive invasion now.

I will start a poll whether CyCon (CPU is actually finished now) should go on fighting, or accept it's defeat and perhaps adds a affirmative vote on a diplomatic victory for Hive or Drones.

Ok, I opened the PUT turn.

Only things that can be done is attacking the 2 Hive units. Next turn Caboolture is fallen. Luckily I hurried the AC in DBTSverse, and 2 interceptors can be sent towards that base for air defense.

My proposal is to attack those Hive units, sell a facility and sent all ec's and map info that PUT still has, and end the turn.

Any comments?

Seems that all we can do. Is their anyway to destroy the base with the Copter. Oh and by the way I told you we should have destroyed all thouse bases when we had the chance.

We should switch most of Cycon to stuff like Gass Copters and Plasma Garrisons. We should quite trying to build things like Comand Centers and Airospace Complexs at Production facilites the morale bost isnt worth it, an extra unit is much better.

Good idea, need to check the flight times (don't know them out of my head) but perhaps one attack, a move to DBTS and a shift can be done. I'll look it over.

Made the prior suggestion for fighting back to Hive for a first time.

On the other hand: if the Hive drop rover conquers Caboolture, can't it then airdrop next to DBTS?

Great, I'll play the turn like this then.

Attack the 2 Hive units just north of Caboolture, fly it down to DBTS, switch it to CyCon, scrap the kindergarten, transfer all info and energy to CyCon and switch production to a scout or other unit which can be finished in 1 turn.
