I'd like to see how you'd react if I had better pointy objects tech than you.

It's never going to get that far anyway. The galaxy is too small, there's too many of us, and we're going to kill each other before we even research basic cloaking devices, nevermind advanced ones. You should have sensors now, on the verge of getting hyper-optic sensors, if you haven't already.

Maybe the Klingons won't get cloaks before the game ends, but my people are the rightful masters of the cloaking device and are on the verge of discovering the level 1 advanced cloak.

It doesn't cost much to get cloaking, and there's only five levels of it on my tech tree.

Eh, now you're fucking scaring me lol. Getting enough tachyon sensor to see through your cloak will take a year for me at least and I'm a research juggernaut!

If you only knew, targh.

Pff, this from the one who ballooned his presense on the map to frighten everyone. I'll believe it when I see it (or in this case, don't see it), Klingon.

Worthy Human Allies: Can we get a turn here, please?

You will know, when your cities are burning and your people wailing in anguish.

Talk is cheap, Klingon. Oh, but I forgot, your empire is so poor, no wonder you can't afford anything but hot air.

In case anyone's wondering, I moved into a new place that doesn't have internet access. The good news is that I'll still have daily i-net access until the Comcast people come out and hook up the cable at my place, so I can use a flash card to ferry the savegames back and forth, but that means it will take two days each turn for the next 1-3 turns. Sorry

That's okay. We made the turns 72 hours for a reason, after all. I can just wind up my excitable Klingon foe for amusement in between turns.

Think again, Romulan fool. We are now ahead of the Dominion in resource production, and soon our cloaked battle fleet will be ready to crush you into dust.

We will see who is laughing soon enough!

Oh, how impressive! You've just managed to pull in front of a boxed in empire that's getting harassed by the Borg!

Meanwhile, wealth from trading with my human allies has already begun to flow into my empire. Mark my words, Klingon, you will see the Romulan eagle planted on your worlds yet!

Yes, shaped by the corpses of your slaughtered warriors, a beacon to warn all those who trifle with us!

Last I checked it was your warriors who are so keen to rush to their inevitable demise, Klingon fool. And I like how you totally ignored my points about how much more prosperous my people are than yours. Can't say I blame you, though. Were I in your position, I wouldn't want to mull over how my former allies have joined wth my foes, either.

This is one of the things I actually regret, my apologies to Dominion especially there's no breathing room for them. I wish I had made the map a little larger, maybe not changed it from 255 maximum to 100. It looks like changing it fucked up the "distribute players evenly throughout the galaxy" algorithm.

The good thing is I used paradise galaxy, so there's a shitload of planets. Wouldn't have hurt to have made it a little bigger though I think.

Your prosperity will be short-lived, as will your alliance with the Federation, petaQ. Unless the Borg and the Dominion grow beyond their borders.

How do you figure that, Klingon? Unlike your foolish race, humans prefer peace to war. They will not attack me unless I violate the terms of our treaty. Face reality: the days of the Federation-Klingon alliance are no more!

Keep flapping those lips. All you Romulans do is talk, talk, talk. It is amazing to me that your mouths have not grown in size to match your ego.

Look who's talking, Klingon. A Romulan eagle "shaped by the corpses of your slaughtered warriors, a beacon to warn all those who trifle with us!" indeed.

Your skin is ever so green.

That would be the Orions.

Your sight is apparently off, too. Is there anything right with the Klingon race?

P.S. can someone start a new single player game with high tech level start and 5k player points and the "see entire tech tree" for me with a few of the races and see if the component "stealth armor" is available? I can't seem to get it even though I have maxed technology. Thanks.

Brian

I'll do it if you promise never to bring that damned cloak up again. What races to you want me to do?

It gets worse - that system in the top left is actually under Neutral control. You can see now why I'm fighting so fiercely against the Borg.

No regrets.

Well. Contested. I've got an impenetrably fortified planet, and he's got one with a small flotilla on top of it. Of course, my own group of cubes are coming...
