Both sides opened with two rounds of lasers at close range, but Doc's superior firepower allowed him to lay waste to the enemy fleet.

Doc was now out of ammo, but fortunately Joncha had not brought alone enough torpedoes. While the loss of half his fleet was painful, the two captured bases were defended.

And now the third and final battle. Lord Nuclear's forces, bolstered by last round's conquest of Kassiopeia, decided to continue on the starlanes to Sparrowhawk's fortress.

In a straightforward shootout, both sides opened up with lasers at close range... but Lord Nuclear had more.

Atragon, your invasion of Paddy's homeland was unopposed.

See the chart at the beginning of the turn.

Anyway, 2nd round Sparrowhawk responded with torpedoes, which is an otherwise sound strategy for countering lasers... but not so effective at close range.

The third round saw both launching fighters, but once again, Nuclear had his foe outnumbered. Sparrowhawk had no choice but surrender.

With that, Lord Nuclear achieved another bloodless victory.

And here's the current situation. A dozen Overlords remain.

Total ship tonnage in the galaxy is up to 579 now; however, the economy is collapsing as the world industrial output dropped 20%. For the first time, there are more conquered bases than homeworlds in the galaxy. Industrial levels are now below prewar conditions.

EDIT: Skanky attacked Doc with a single laserfrigate and took his 3 bases.

Even without the graphics it would be useful to explain what happened in the Atragon, Ljube. Paddy and me battles.

I think the Ljube- Paddy combo invaded Atragon's home base and divided the spoils but then meantime Atragon invaded Paddy's Home base and I invaded Ljube's Home base.

Yep, Herc's conquest of Ljube's bases and Atragon's conquest of Paddy's bases, not to mention Doc's initial conquest of Jamski's bases, were all simple instances of fleets meeting no defenders.

And there are now 5 Overlords with no home bases.

My biggest mistake in this game so far is attacking MORON instead of Atragon in the second round.

But that's because some repulsive and xenophobic nations wouldn't coordinate plans with me. I wonder if they received any benefit from their stubborn opposition to reason and logic.

I forgot to process Skanky's attack orders, he had sent a laserfrigate at Doc's undefended bases. Data and charts have been corrected.

now the question is, can the players take down lordnuke/herc/spacecowboy before they grow too big to take out?

Given current production numbers, they'd be invincible in 2 turns, as many other players have only ~15bp/turn, with no home bases....

Well, bases built in the first turn have delivered a profit of 4 BP over the construction costs already. Bases built in turn two are about to...

Perhaps the builders will start to power past the warmongers now.

And damn those shields
