Rebirth 3 - The end cometh

It is a matter of time now, the end is clear. Please Vote below if you want to end the game.

I would like to see my Cylons walking hand in hand supported by their walking sticks into a very old age.

NOTE: The game will not actually end naturally until 1 player has 65%.

Was totally looking forward to some Virgo smashing, but otherwise I'm fine with ending this game. 

Was a pleasure playing with all of you! Especially with you, figak! Great coordination.

Maybe we should create a space UN.

There is more where that came from... 3 bases gone. Down to 4 bases, soon even less.

Is that enough dead? 

OMG, Fed still hanging in there with 1 Eros ship left.

Thank you for playing when this was clearly coming for the last... wow a month? Anyway, now that the homeworlds are gone, do you want to keep the turkey shoot out?

8 new biocides have departed from our base docks and will be joining the hunting down of the last ships and bases, so there are more cubes and finishing nets ready if you want to do a numantine resistance.

I am going to write a bit of a chronicle of this game from my perspective, so this elaborate answer is just a "preview" of what I want to write and, at the same time, answer your question.

No, Spuk and I had not exchanged detailed info on to attack you, not at that stage. I wish the history functionality was active then, because I could have really done so later on... 

I would say that I have an advanced alliance with Kedalion, we exchange easy 5 messages per turn and coordinate our attacks. We missed some functionality to this efficiently like: what's on the planets we scouted with the cloakers we comendeered/cloned/traded, which ships are out of fuel and which ships hit his fishing nets or hit my mines, what enemy ships are orbiting our planets planets. What I found with my "cerveza" probes, which planets I obliterated and what I found on them. etc.

With Spuk it was more highlevel, more fitting to the alliance functionality. Less detailed. Like I said, and it was later in the game that we got into alliance mode.

At early stage (turn 10?) I had agreed a border with him and he was sticking to it honourably and I was in alliance mode with you to share info (like turn 20 or so?), then Spuk started to make a move on you and you decided not to trust me. You broke it off, not even an explanation, that was insulting and I black listed you. You expected me to have control over the fascist, when I all I had was a border. If you didn't trust me, how could I trust you?

So it was time to judge who I would ally with, who to trust based on actions and not words, to take sides. The backstabbing paranoid and slippery romulan or the honorable (yet independent and aggressive) Klingon. The outcome you know.

When I take sides, I do it all the way, I provided access to Spuk to the planets we (borg-bird) could have used for trading to resupply his attacking fleet and go deeper in your area and I gambled by trading a Firecloud for a D7 with Mk7s and that paid off beautifully... (more on that later). But it cemented our trust and allowing me to the same with Kedalion, who got two cloned D7s with MK7s as xmas presents as a token of my commitment to our alliance.

If you hadn't been so rush, slippery and disloyal, it could have been the fascist on the receiving end of my cubes. The bird with fireclouds and me with a Resollute. Funny enough we ended having a few Resolltes anyway, as we Imperial Assulted your bases ;)

Ah no! The first privateer was rather inept as far as I could see and left, then came a few replacements but they found a mess and left. 

The planets north of my homeworld bordered the privateer and were excellent in production of cash and minerals, many cubes came from that base. So early in the game I had to mine it hard (big and overlaping fields) to stop any nasty surprises. It worked and the priv chickened out, and preferred to go for the fascist (bad idea.. one word for you "pop"). So soon that privateer quit.

Only just before I set out to destroy the privateer (and he had been my biggest worry) did someone competent take it over. It was: http://vgaplanets.nu/user/darksunny-moon

But it was too late, I launched a two prone plannet hopping firecloud assault with 6? cubes, one direct to his HW and it was all over quickly thanks to the fishing nets of Kedalion no robbing took place, also the Spuk joined in the fray a little pillaging him mad. The last priv plannet died a slow, pillaged death.

We even chased him out of the North East Corner where he was trying to hide and he stumbled on one of my cluster outposts ;)

Since the first recorded turn in history is turn 51.

Edit: priv should work, I guess is load driven.

I should have zero PO points but I have a negative number.

Also look at this thread: http://vgaplanets.nu/discussion/players-who-fight-to-the-end

Thank you Colonials for not pulling the plug out of existance.

Cylon Central Government.

Beta 2 is entering it's death throes, we want to end it with a bang and break as many ships as possible. :P  

And we still can't see the priv's turn, (has anyone been able to?).

Edit: and please kick me out of game 3888. I managed to find a bug where you can still join an open race of a finished game, it looks corrected, but I'm still in the game ;)
