Black Nova Traders

With all my planets gone I don't even have enough money now to afford enough mine deflectors to go and scan the planets.

Good try, Zeffie . . . but not good enough.

You could always trade...

I'm not going to go trade to make 100 billion credits just so I can scan planets I can't conquer anyway.

Hmm, that means if I hound you across the galaxy enough, I might destroy you before Sunday.

Well to do so you'd have to hope that my EWD fails, or that you manage to hit me ten times inbetween me logging in and reloading.

I thought you said you were broke?

I am, but EWD's are cheap.

Did ya get a thrill from capturing that empty planet Nick?

Yes, yes I did.

I ask that the game be extended long enough so that I may plant a billion mines in every sector.

As a corollary, I would like to mine a billion planets.

For gold?

Donald Trump would tap that.

They totally ought to name the Xenobe things after annoying celebrities in a future update of the game.

Then everyone could bomb the stuffing out of the entire sector Donald Trump dedicated to his hairdo.

I took the Juno on a suicide run since I wouldn't of had much time to play in the few days the game has left. This was a really fun game, I learned a lot and think that I'll have a better idea of how to do things when the next game starts.

If anyone's interested in two sectors with maxxed out population visit 1524 and 3707.

Thanks, looks like I got to the forum at the right time.

My gunners enjoyed the target practice.

And consider yourself lucky for getting off with mere death. If I'd caught up to you after you obliterated Gateway Oscar...

So, who wants to go out like a man? My ship versus your ship. 200km at dawn.

I've calculated how many fighters you have aboard.

Being rendered down to one's component atoms don't sound like no way for a man to die.

I'm your huckleberry.

Holy shit!

You ran into 2 billion units of Level 40 beams and 200 million torps. Yeah, that'll do it.

Actually, if that was one of your planets with a base on that would be level 41 beams since a base increases a planets tech levels by 1.

Since we were unable to deal with the coming apocalypse, my crew and I asked for our fearless commander, Admiral Elwood, to give us the deaths of honorable men.

Starcruiser Pariah OBLITERATED in combat with a loss of all hands. Her crew died with their boots on.

Just curious, Elwood...did we manage to make even a scuff mark on your Battlestar before we blossomed into fire?

No. I lost less than 100 million of my 1.1 billion fighters.

You roll with 1.1 billion fighters? I think you automatically win. I'm picking up what's left of Paladin's empire, but I don't think I can take you own.

^Don't hold out hopes of finding any cash. I gathered it all up and spent it on upgrades before my crew and I took the Ride of the Valkyries. ATL damned near 32 when we went down. Nothing left in the bank, either.

If you find all of my territories, they'll rack up about a quarter to a half trillion per day pretty quickly. A drop in the bucket on the Elwood scale, however.

I don't think I found them all, just 20 or 30 systems. As for the no credits, they keep generating everything but fighters if they're unowned, so they came with a not insignificant ammount of cash. Its putting fighters on all of them that's a pain.

^My core world had about 250,000,000 fighters---it took a lot of trips to get them stacked that high!

Planet Cheesball is gone!
