After too many expensive fights with those Orks I could afford to fight you. I was stretched too thin and never bothered to fortifty my resource points (and I could have too... though I don't think I ever really had the resources for it)

Good game!

You were the source of much annoyance, I don't know why you didn't fight Shin more. I wasn't even being that aggressive, only counterattacking when you attacked me.

I lost my Internet connection and when it came back, you guys were already in game. Sorry.

That game was soooo jerky (me, Jedi, and DarkPrimus) but we won.


Jedi lost his base and had to relocate though. And in the end I didn't even need my bloodthirster really. :P

That game was freaking awesome. You guys ran ahead and got totally raped, while I took it slow as usual and made headway. But when I thought I was wiping out the last base... nope, turns out they moved around my blindspot and build some bases behind me!

Man, I had to run like hell to get my marines out of there. :P Came back soon enough, though. All in all quite fun.

I was watching the replay of that 4-way FFA, and I realized that if either Bystander or Jedi had so much as looked in our direction, we both would've been totally fried. :P


Rogue and I were so busy haggling with each other we both failed to advance past Dreadnaughts while the other two had Nobs, Squiggoths, Prisms and Avatars. :D

That, of course, is how FFA works!

Hey, hey, hey I'll be available for a game for about....oooooh the next two hours or so. Quite tired after work, but still have enough get up and go to have a game or two.

Can't risk it just now. My bass lesson is in an hour and a half, and if I get caught up in the game and show up late my teacher will murder me.

Well I'm off to sleep, night guys - that last game was a little wierd, my AI just owned everyone... not sure why - will have to watch the replay.

That's it for me tonight.


And yeah, your AI sort of killed everyone. Mines was the first to die. :P

I beat Rogue shortly after. Then tried to Assault Marine spam and got most of them wiped out by that blasted Bloodthirster.

Ya, I was watching that battle and thinking "Oh come on, kill it, I want to fight someone!" then after the line broke I thought "Oh shit... what's left? I better do something" other than whoring all the resource points... Speaking of which, how is it that the AI get like twice the resources I did, when I controlled both orange points plus like a 4th of the games total Resource Points and ALL FOUR Slag deposits (plus max power reactors and both output boosts).

Speaking of which - are buying the output boosts worth it? What exactly do they do? Overall + to that resource income? If so, by how much?

The AI got twice the resources because Insane AI gets a 30% resource bonus.
