Remember: Never, really never kill the baby yetis. Or they will kill you. To death. (Flotilla)

Nah, throw them out the airlock. I managed to kill 6 Destroyers and 3 Dreadnoughts with my 3 destroyers, without losses too. Then proceeded to get all my ships blown in 4 turns by a single beam frigate or whatever they are called 



My lastest death however was from assassination. As king of Jerusalem, I was feeling threatened by the Turks that held everything in the Middle East, from Kuweit to Byzance/Constantinople and everything south and east of the russian kingdom. I attempted to assassinate their leader; a leader whose name inspired fear but also admiration comparable to Hannibal's, Saladin's or Genkis Khan's names. My first attempt failed, and their counter attack succeeded.

My son took my revenge a few years later and caused the almost complete destruction of the Turks

Crusader Kings btw

Nice map! It's good to know there's a few other alliance members nearby.

I'm planning to start my third colony tomorrow or saturday. I'll probably head west, or whatever 'left' is in space  , depending on what my probes find over there. I'm hoping to find a nice orbit 3 planet. Every one I found so far are either inhabited or rather uninteresting (or both).

I started playing yesterday, but I wanted to make sure I actually planned to stay before joining an alliance. Please add Asyrius to the list for B12 alliance.


My homeworld isn't too bad, except for a limitation in ore variety

I've been looking around Windseekers/Farra islands, but I just can't decide on a good location for relocalisation. Windseekers has too much mountain and too little forest for my treehugging ways and Farra, from what I've read, is where we can expect troubles in the near futur. I would appreciate some suggestions.

Request: A good, space colonization strategy game. Preferably with multiple planets/system that are randomly generated.
Examples: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, Light of Altair, Aurora

The only game I can think that hasn't been mentionned yet is Emperor of the Fading Suns. IIRC, planets are not randomly generated only randomly distributed, but each planet has it's own map... they aren't just spreadsheets.

Donations?  Nope, nothing set up.

I haven't really got into company's organization or planification yet. I still have no clue how charters houses works either. So basically, at this point the company is little more than a convenient way to communicate between each others. The situation will improve as I learn more about the mechanic of things and depending on the needs.

The company has been created in Marseille, as previously stated, under the name TheTwelfthBay, unlike what was previously mentionned (stupid, absurd and useless limitations!!!  )

I will be online for a few more hours to accept requests and start refilling my bank account.

Btw whats your ingame name Alex?

What type of ship are you using right now? I am using a small carrack, which is probably faster than what you've got and I spent a bit of ducats on getting better studding sail (currently 216/53/0 speed).
