Ok, final call for Herc, Spiffor and Panzeh. I'm going to eat some noodles then start the update. If these guys are your allies you have about 30 minutes to get mad with them.

Chapter 5

Pylkka had been leading a reign of terror across the galaxy, and the forces of the military and the church were determined to restore order. As Ken Banobi said, "No human is above the will of JEBUS". General Ordin wasn't such a big fan of JEBUS, but he was happy to lend his shiny new laserdreadnaughts to the all-laser fleet that the two sent to Pylkka's homebases.

Pylkka had anticipated something of the sort, and he had hurriedly had to rebuild a fleet from scratch, concentrating on torpedoes. If he'd wanted to flee it would have made no difference anyway. A spy sent by Ken Banobi had destroyed his communications sats.

As the allied fleet manouvered into position, spreading out, Pylkka launched every torpedo tube. Against Banobi's and Ordin's dispersed ships there was almost no effect, only a few of the smaller vessels unlucky enough to be vaporised into nuclear flowers.

Pylkka commanded his fleet into a desperate manouvre of his own. Surely the überhumans could not lose! But now the lasers of the allies had found the optimum firing solutions and opened up. It took just moments for Pylkka's entire fleet to be lasered into shrapnel, but even in their deaththroes the überhumans completed one final manourvre and bravely launched every last torpedo in a desperate attempt to take some of the allies with them to their graves.

It was not to be. General Ordin's many years of millitary experience had taught him to show no mercy. Over-riding Banobi's plea for compassion he ordered the lasers to keep firing untill every last battery was depleted. Only three torpedos made it through the barrage of laser fire, and detonated harmlessly. Pylkka's empire was no more.

code:
GO9Battle
Ordin & Banobi           Pylkka        
Kassi & Jaguar Smiley
Close In, Spread Out Back Off, Bunch Up
0 M 30 15
15 HITS
114 57 M 0

3 HITS



Kassi loses 1 lasercruiser and 1 laserbattleship damaged
Jaguar loses 1 laserbattleship
Pylkka loses all bases and is eliminated.

Kassi gains 3 bases
Jaguar gains 2 bases.

BUT THERE'S MORE!

Sorry but I have to be strict, I can't allow you to send orders when you already know what 3 players are doing.

Edit: But if you don't send me a defensive OoB in the next... 10 minutes you are automatically defeated. I can't offer more than that.

Chapter 5a

"Incoming fleet!" came the warning over Ciann Pollus's speakers. Desperately he scrambled to send orders to the totally disorganised and confused fleet. Who was attacking? Did they bring allies? What forces did they have? The senator's ships were in disarray. Why hadn't they been given any orders? Should they return fire?

Chapter 5b

"All ships launch and prepare to defend Polleeton IV!" ordered Cian Pollus. "Abandon the plans to ally with (deleted) and attack (deleted)! Its far to late to get there now!"

Far away Overlord (deleted) gave a sigh as he realised that his orders for an allied attack with Pollus were never going to come, and ordered his fleet to stand down.

And then... the fleet of Agath Agathari exploded out of hyperspace and with a mighty hymn of praise to the Galactic Squid, they fell upon the defenders of Polleeton IV!

Chapter 5c

What can I say? In the total confusion of the defender's laser-heavy fleet launching at short notice range while Agath Agathari's fleet appeared form hyperspace all over the place, and proceeded to close in to use their lasers the only winners were chaos and death.

code:
GO9Battle
Agath Agathari Ciann Pollus
Tassadar Hercules
Close In, Spread Out Default
66 33 M 15
66 HITS
0 M 33 132
132 HITS  
264 33 15 30
234 HITS



Results: All of the ships on both sides are destroyed. Tassadar is emliminated and Hercules is one lucky lucky bastard to keep his bases.

Manouvred lasers at close range

lol ...

On a serious note, I think that in the future, if orders aren't in by start, NO orders are accepted, including defensive OOBs. Knowing you're under attack, and particularly with several overlords subtracted from the mix, could easily affect the OOB you give - and that's really not fair to those of us who send in orders on time ...

And it's not like there weren't 3 days ffs ...

Yes, there wasn't a perfect way to resolve it without someone getting it in the ass. Really, Herc should have sent on time. As a result he has lost his entire fleet, and his ally (deleted) has wasted a turn. Ok, Tassi is probably a bit miffed that he didn't get an auto-win by attacking someone who had sent no defensive OoB, but Herc would be equally miffed at being autodestroyed when he actually beat the update post by a few seconds. I made a GM call, knowing someone would get the sharp end of the stick. Either way a palyer would be eliminated. I opted to run the combat, and let battle resolve the problem. I'm glad I did. Tassi goes out in true style in GO's first double lazorgeddon death

No, the last two rounds have had a 2000GMT deadline, because I make about 400% less mistakes when I'm a bit more awake

Okay But why not a random OOB? That's what Smiley i think did, and what I did the one time it came up - no autowin, but random OOBs (no M allowed, just 6 randomly between LLFFTT, and normal/normal) still give the defense some chance while penalizing them by probably sucking

Oh - and what do you mean, ally (deleted) wasted a turn?

I thought that if you say "I will attack Player X, allied with Player A" and Player A doesn't show, it's called "you're screwed" and your attack goes through anyway, but by yourself. More than one player in the past has done this on purpose (being player A) and screwed someone thereby (:weasel: ) ...

You know me - I'll not tolerate random elements. I better restate this in case people are unclear - no OoB or an illegal OoB means auto defeat.

Aaagh, forgot to mention this! Yes, I had some illegal orders this round from player X! They didn't send an OoB for an allied attack, but posted some vague nonsense about "using the same OoB as player Y" Sorry, but this isn't gonna hang with me. Send your OoB. What if one of you gets spied? What if one of you is backstabbing? Always send an OoB, and always send a defensive OoB too, unless you are shielding, you never know when you might get spied or backstabbed.

Thanks for reminding me Snoops Someone got lucky that their lack of precise orders were not taken advantage of.
