Chapter 11.3
Lag


quote:

Here is something to think about
Just because you ping someone and you don't get a reponse doesn't mean they're not there. The Galaxy is big and latency is high.




In a culture steeped with tradition, old grudges die hard, if they die at all. Ever since the sack of New Constantinople by Siffanese barbarians in the Seventh Year, Basileus Naviwinat vowed to return.

After years of battle and decay, though, his once-mighty fleet was barely half the size of his adversary's. But that was nothing to worry about, for he too could make use of the ultimate weapon: allies.

The combined fleets of Naviwinat, General Ordin, and Zol Ventis, weighing in at over 300 tons, swept down on New Constantinople. It was just like before but in reverse- Polly Siffan was not around, and only three laser titans stood guard over a sprawling empire of fourteen bases.

With their superior numbers, the Emperor's tacticians had wisely chose a straightforward order of battle with no maneuvering. Polly's captains were rapidly lazorgeddoned without a chance to inflict damage or disengage.

Aww, no M damage ... so sad ...

and I have to object to the portrayal of my fleet as barbaric. We are simply venture capitalists looking for a good thing, and that's the highest peak of civilization

Ahem. I must again remind you that my fleet are venture capitalists. That means they go take a flier on some company, get it going, and then let some other loser take it on when it's at its peak. Buy low, sell high, that's our motto.

Chapter 11.4
A Different Kind of Holy Shield


quote:

Here is something to think about
JEBUS isn't the only one who saves.




Where was Polly? Attacking, of course. This time, the ally was Ken Banobi and the target was Agathari, who the two called the Giant Squid.

Torpedoes were loaded in preparation for what was predicted to be a pushover. What happaned instead was a clear example of Murphy's Law, as the fleet rammed a shield.

Polly's vanguard of fifteen newly built torpedo frigates were the first to fry. Next up were Banobi's torpedo cruisers, of which 11 were destroyed and a 12th heavily damaged.

In the end though, it was Polly who took the heavier casualties, as without homebases, another 23 tons of shipping had to be scrapped. 17 brand-new laser frigates were disassembled for parts, as well as an old fighterbattleship and a torpedobattleship.

Chapter 11.5
Arms Race


quote:

Here is something to think about
There's always someone bigger. Be that someone.


Though chaotic, the year had been mostly casualty free. Only three ships were lost in battle, and not a single Overlord was eliminated. Two home bases were turned into captured ones, but this was offset by the building of two new bases by Ivan von Kristof and Agath Agathari, and in the end, production had crept up to 319 BPs per turn for the galaxy.

Orders due Tuesday at 7PM.

That was a good turn for the emperor, but a bad turn for the empire Robots have eliminated human culture in nearly a quarter of the galaxy, some rebels try to proclaim new republics, and religions, cults and free markets threaten the stabilty of humanity.
Spies report that the former Lord Vetko has had a chip implanted in his brain, placing him under the direct command of the Colony 1 mainframe
