TWX can be very fun expecially when you run into someone and all of a sudden they are dead because the attack script is so fast you do not even realize what is going on....or my fav i for get the attack script is on and then i run into someone and my screen goes crazy and then think to myself oh yeah my attack script...lol

I can't say for sure what the players you're running into are doing, but I know I've had newbies think I'm running some sort of attack/kill script MUCH more often than I really have been.

Happy Halloween, looks like there are planet invasions going on. If you cannot colonize, invade someone else's planet and take collies from them.

Simon and I teamed up, combined figs, and I brought in a Sauramon ship for the invasions. We got a good fig grid going on, but it gives us a ton of fig hits a day.

I would like to get a Gandalf ship, but I don't really see the benefits of it when the Sauramon ship seems to have better odds, more cargo holds, and can hold more figs. Also no ptorps on a Gandalf.

Bill The Pony seems to be good for resource movers with the 250 cargo holds it can have, but a Sauramon is almost as good.

Grazhoppa says that the Ringwraiths have a ship that we cannot buy at the Stardock. A purple colored ship. All I have seen them have are Sauramon's, Pippen's, and Gilmi's for the Ringwraiths. Maybe the Sauramon ship is worth capturing, but I'd like to cap the unknown one. So far all the Ringwraiths have done is eat my shields and take out grid figs and drain ports.

Yes they are the main threat, not the other players. Whomever takes out the Ringwraith's homeworld stands to gain a lot.

Too bad we are playing "Planet Tag" with each other. :)

Thats good though because that meant that they are doing their job because i want them to be hard....That way you always have something to worry about.

Heh, we'll, they've got 1mil figs..

That's enough for me to worry about

The game will not have a clear victor anytime soon, not enough colonists, nor turns to keep up with the aliens, so unfortunatly my team will be withdrawing from the game pretty soon.

*Before the mail bug corrupts it*

Your aliens are hitting the figs, but not killing

game will crash shortly =\

As Grazhoppa said, it is like a DoS attack when the aliens enter a sector and don't kill the fig, and do it over and over again until it corrupts the mail log. If they just took out the fig, it would be one hit, instead of dozens or more.

I think you either need to turn the aliens off, or make the correct edits strider, unfortunatly your aliens aren't being the badasses you want, because they weren't made right.. (and they're evil, not good) Good aliens are a pain in the Butt, especially when the board calls for blue play :)

I feel they also need some spefic ships.. Remeber the big screeching thing they rode? That would be a nice ship, with good, low TPW, a medium cargo capacity (like 85-125) really good attack/def odds, and alot of figs, altho not many shields.

I'm enjoying the game, finally some player activity to keep my attention.

When I say alot of figs, I mean like, 4-12k tops

With good odds, it makes up for not having TONS of figs.
