Ah, a bold wager, considering that the Borg haven't been added to the map yet. Not a foolish one, though, at least not in my opinion.
It's a sure bet, given this...

Speaking of that, if you guys wouldn't mind sending me a grab of your systems map, I would appreciate it. If you don't want to, just let me know.

Hmm, why do I get the feeling that this design is from a one player game and not our game? :wink:

Scared the hell out of me at first glance, though. And I do like the design type you gave it.

If you're going to make a propaganda ship at least make the Stardate match up :twisted:.

<edit>The latest Ferengi model has just rolled off the factory floor. More shields, electronic countermeasures and jamming, more weapons, more, more!

Out of stock, they'll be back next Monday.

Meanwhile help yourself to our latest catch.

Oh, yes, because we're short on women with pointed ears on the Romulan worlds. :P

You crazy nuts don't let your wives/husbands/girlfriends/boyfriends/significant other find out you're taking two turns a day, and if you're in school don't let it suck up more than an hour a day maximum, trust me I know from experience.

Brian

<edit>J/k btw, I just took a second turn too :twisted: when I come home I fully expect the turn to have cycled already or I'm gonna kill someone lol</edit>

I hear the Borg are quite busy with the Dominion at the moment. Not to worry, Ferengi shipment of hoes, pimps, man-whores and she-males will continue to the galaxy undisturbed despite intergalactic war, supernova or super-villian. We have our Breen disruptor rifles, Neutrino mines, and failing that a generous amount of Lwaxana and Janeway mudwrestling naked ready for the attack.

Thanks for fixing my empire's name, Dalton. I suppose even a Klingon must get things right occasionally.

The Dominion are one system above my northernmost system, and probably at least the adjacent system. I have no idea where the TNG Federation is.

:roll: In case you haven't noticed, the places have been fluctating pretty wildly because it's so early in the game yet. I think the only player who's standing has remained consistant is Dalton.

Mine was pretty consistent at or around 6, thank you very much.

Mine were pretty consistant at 2nd for awhile, and you didn't see me bragging...much. :wink: Sorry.

At least I don't resort to weird spellings of equally weird words, you "petaQ."
Really, nobody speaks Klingonese anymore. It's a barbaric language of a barbaric people.

And my insults would be stronger if you were not the Wookie, but since you are, I'll just have to take to heart the old saying that actions speak louder than words and blast your worlds until they glow.

The only constant has been Kirk at number 1. I have a feeling that there'll be multiple alliances against Kirk by the time this game is over :twisted:.

I'm going on a campaign against neutrals soon. Wish me luck heh heh.
