Still missing Joncha orders, but apparently the internet works now, so I'm stumped as to why I do not have them.

Turn 11: "WTF....er no. This is hilarious."

Joncha's fleet approaches Kassiopeia's fleet in the designated area.
K: "About time you made it."
J: "Sorry I'm late."
K: "Where's ..."
J: "Haven't seen him, maybe he got sabotaged."
K: "So do we press on?"
J: "Nothin' better to do."
K: "Hold on a sec."
J: "What is it?"
K: "I've got something on radar."
J: "Is it....?"
K: "No It appears to be a very small ship headed away from our destination."
J: "Whatever, let's press on."
K: "K"

Back for another day in the saddle, Butch Joncha and the Kassiopeia Kid approach the bases of Skanky Burns. What? Surely, you meant DrSpike! Nope, Skanky is the target and DrSpike was supposed to join in the party, but is not here for some reason.

Joncha: 1TC 6LT 2FT 15TT: TTL-FLF: back off and normal formation.
Kassiopeia: 4FD 5TD 13LT 12FT 23TT: TTL-FLF: back off and normal formation.
Skanky Burns: 1TF 1TB 1LD 5TD 39LT 20TT: LTL-TFF: close in and spread out.

code:
Raw Data (Round 1) ******************************** The Alliance Skanky Burns 215T 199L 215T 124T 095L 199L ******************************** Adjusted Data (Round 1) 215T 199L Skanky Burns takes 16 hits. 107T 124T The Alliance takes 17 hits. 095L 199L The Alliance takes 104 hits. ********************************

Skanky Burns lost 1 LD and suffered damage to 1LT[2]. The Alliance lost 1TC, 1TD, 10LT and took damage to 1TD[3] and 2 ea. LT[8].

Adjusted Fleets:
Joncha: 1LT[8] 2FT 15TT: TTL-FLF: back off and normal formation.
Kassiopeia: 4FD 4TD 8LT[8] 12FT 23TT: TTL-FLF: back off and normal formation.
Skanky Burns: 1TF 1TB 5TD 39LT[2] 20TT: LTL-TFF: close in and spread out.
code:
Raw Data (Round 2) ******************************** The Alliance Skanky Burns 86F 124T 45L 000F 86F 000F ******************************** Adjusted Data (Round 2) 344F 124T Skanky Burns takes 220 hits. 090L 000F Skanky Burns takes 90 hits. 172F 000F Skanky Burns takes 172 hits. ********************************

Skanky Burns lost 1TF 1TB 5TD 27LT 17TT and suffered damage to 1TT[8]. The alliance gains two of Skanky's bases (so I do not have to split one base).

**************************************
Commander: "Have they left?"
First Mate: "Leaving the system right now."
Commander: "We'll give them a few minutes and move in."
First Mate: "Still doesn't seem right, though."
Commander: "You'll understand more as you grow, young one."
A long pause.
First Mate: "Sir, Has it been long enough?
Commander: "Yes, DO IT!"

DrSpike warps into the Joncha system with his WHOLE fleet and quickly takes control of all the bases in that sector.

*************************************
A lone torpedo frigate drops out of warp.
Commander: "Scanners?"
First Mate: "Nothing but big juicy bases, sir. No ships on the screen."
Commander: "Excellent, move and and make them ours!"
First Mate: "Aye-Aye!"

Skanky Burns lone torpedo frigate captures all of DrSpike's bases. (Making me think that DrSpike has somehow broken into me stash again.)

Well sort of. I had so much trust in you that I just assumed outright that a spy had stopped your fleet. What a silly thing to do.

You need home bases to build ships. Your available cap for ship size is without any home bases zero = no ships.

It would be wrong to ally with those who killed my ally. Plus Joncha and you would have killed me next after Skanky.

I wonder if "avenging your ally" will balance out the bad karma you get from backstabbing people.

You don't have any bases that are your own, only captured bases, and they do not count towards the build limits.

Also, take your time with the orders, I forgot to send the files home again.

I am perhaps a little biased ( ) but that seems strange. Why can't they count in a ratio to built bases like with BP. That seems fairest.

Well, first of all, it means you have to actually work to be able to construct bigger ships, isntead of just rushing someone and using their bases to enable them... hwoever, if you want it rationalised, I'd say it's because your home abses are wher ethe manufacturing and such take place, while the captured ones are just feeding you extra resources.

I'm not asking for a 'realism' rationale GT, I'm just stating that these bases should count for balance reasons towards build limits. Now as you say they shouldn't count equally as compared to built bases, but they should count. With BP we use a system where captured bases count for less. I think it makes sense to use a similar system for build limits.
