orion blastar DESTROYED rono's *** Ship's Boat ***!
"May the fleas of 1000 camels infest your armpits, orion blastar", cries rono.


Rono got got! I would have the capture file but ATTAC messed up after I captured Rono's ship and destroyed his pod and tried to select the text and copy it. SWATH and TWX was acting funny so I used ATTAC for a while.

Looks like I have some competition with Phase and Animal, and Modern Fusion. MF looks like he has the game so far in a Pirate Flagship and making tons of cash as a red. There are a few others like C&H that I cannot remember their names yet.

Too bad my corp quit due to net lag connecting to System78. I am now a solo blue on a corp of inactive players. Heh! :)

Good game so far, 20 players signed up to play it. I hope that other servers will host the Traveller edits too some day.

hahaha... I'm not so sure "MF" is a good way to abbreviate Modern Fusion. [:D]

(and the lag seems much better (less) now... get your whiney corpies back if their mommies didn't ground them or something...)

Hee hee, my corpies got tired of the lag and low port desnity of the game. Next rebang maybe it should be 75% port density instead of 40% port density. 7500 ports instead of 4000 ports in a 10K universe. Makes the game more of a challenge I say, but makes it harder to trade.

I ran the ports dry every time I play, and I only have 10% of the universe mapped so far. :)

If I get a chance, I am going red. But only after I colonize some planets first. A Fed Commision is useful for saving turns on colonizing. Nothing like twarping right into sector 1, ah yes!

I will see if my corpies want to return to the game, two of them CBYed. I will see what we can do if te lag stays away or isn't so bad.

Hey you said to use the Game S settings on the bang, so that was your call. :) Besides, the port regen is 200%/day... so I hardly think it'll be a problem.

I know, I thought it was going to be 8000 sectors with 4000 ports, which would have been 50% port density, like Game S. My mistake that the sectors were still set to 10K, but I am still learning how the game edits work. So when you rebang it, I suggest 7500 ports with 10000 sectors. Maybe the players will like that one better?

Every day I drain the ports that I find anyway. ;)

Well no real challenge so far. Even the aliens are tougher than most of the other players. Arucard podded C&H today. 24 players total, not too bad. Trav 1.1 will improve on the ships, cut down on the aliens, and have shorter citidel build times.

The score so far:

I took out Rono a few days ago, he came back in a scout and got SDed again. Modern Fusion, Animal, and Phase seem to be the only people who might pose a threat to us, but I think we are outcashing them. :)
