I'm crawling to the finish line, reaching... NGHHH!!!

(I built 19 new Darkwings this turn! Sweet!)

@Horst, you did a good job helping, donating ship and planets instead of playing as a team.

Thanks Horst, I've been playing since the 90'es so it would be funny if I wouldn't have learned anything... :D

@Vest

Well, I think allied victory as a team would have been easier and faster. For example, there has been 59 build points for the Colonies for quite some time now - some more Virgoes and Cobols and help of fighter minesweep, we could have advanced a bit faster. Bringing my own clans, minerals and money to Colonial space to build up economy took some time. He didn't offer to "bum" before I already did that.

But I don't mind, it's been fun!

Heh! I first wanted this to end fast, but then the situation developed so I'm in a rare situation where I have this big fleet of good ships, multiple fronts and constant action. My tenacity is still pretty low, so why would I want to leave a game of so good Planets? And I could get pretty many achievements, perhaps some day it will help me get into championships as Bird...

Of course I still need to try to win this ASAP - @vest you are doing good job challenging me, if I don't try my best, I won't succeed!

Yes, I am certainly stretching for it, let's see if I manage to stay over 200 planets the following 5 turns!

Yeah, that's tricky. When I play as the Rebels I often go only to RGA so I always get the left side, as I don't attack. But of course it doesn't work when you are in a hurry! Unless you take a risk and think that your opponent thinks that you do RGA and attacks... ;)

Also, against torpedo ships it could actually be smart to try to take the right side with small numerical friendly code, so the enemy doesn't get the mass bonus:
"If the left-hand starship is a carrier, the right-hand starship has approximately a 60% chance of receiving a 360 KT mass bonus."
This is especially important for those smaller Evil Empire carriers *wink-wink to the dark side*.

So in this case you have to guess if there is a carrier or not! And if I'm afraid of RGA or not!
