Team Saber Embassy

I don't think we should say anything. I bet that Saber has a spy planted with Free, so they can see for themselves. There's nothing that we could say that could cause Saber to attack Free if they don't plan on it anyways.
 
If we have any devious, sneaky, lying tricks up our sleeve - now is the time to get them ready.
I'd like to give us a chance to win, in any way. :D

4/4 destroyer vs. 4/4 transport -> 4/4 destroyer.
5/5 destroyer vs. 4/4 nuclear sub -> 1/5 destroyer
We shot down two fo their bombers over The Igloo at a cost of 9 citizens killed there. It seems very easy for them to hone in on our best producing city and reduce it to rubble.
 
Yep. Quite a farce, these late game mechanics. :rolleyes:

At least they are finally running out of bombers. :banana:
We'll get to deal with Stealth Bombers soon. :ar15:
 
Battle log sent to SABER with save:

Near our southeast coast:

Artillery shells 5/5 cruiser for 1 damage.
Radar artillery shells 5/5 destroyer for 1 damage.
Radar artillery shells 4/4 cruiser for 1 damage.
 
They concentrate on The Gulag and The Silo. :( At least there's no mention of cities being captured or burned.

boring... :sleep: :xmassign:
 
boring is good.
We just need to scrape by for 8 more turns, and hope the action shifts to FREE land... :please:
 
If the action doesn't shift there soon FREE will probably build their entire space ship before we complete our engine. :(
 
Looks like they haven't figured out FREE can build a spaceship.

7 citizens killed in The Gulag.

7 misses.
 
Perhaps we need to mention it to them explicitly??

"While you've been bombing our production sites our enterprising young-folk have been ferrying state secrets across the water to our brothers-in-blue. One way or another, Space belongs to Blue, and Orange will be left here, in the ashes of a dead planet. So long, suckers!!"
 
I like it but not sure if we should send it. It might provoke SABER into invading us in hopes of securing a domination win before FREE can launch.
 
I agree we shouldn't send it. I'm just trying to spark discussion. Gosh - how long has it been since we had a real discussion here? :(

I'm glad we're seeing this game through to the end, though. It'll be exciting to see what happens!
 
:lol: You get an "A" for effort though, Peter :)

Yeah - I think we need to just sit tight for now and let this play out.
Our worst-case scenario is that FREE gets mad at us for some reason. Sending a letter like you suggested to Saber has huge "backfire" potential if Saber passes it along to FREE.
 
Not as bad as the previous ones though it will still delay our engine even further.

Yeah, but the good news is they didn't touch The Silo. It would also seem they are still not bombing FREE.
 
The game is getting a bit boring. Kudos to donsig for keeping it running.

I just wish any of those 2 other teams would have the balls to have a go at the other one, because a prolonged space race between those 2 would be much more boring than a good old fight.

I did take a look at the sabotage values of two of SABER's cities. Bingol would cost 126g (for safely) and Baldric would be 9952g! According to the F7 screen SABER is building the Manhattan Project there. Anyone care to take a guess as to how far along their are with this diabolical project?

I will take a stab at it:

Sabotage Production = 4976 = dist*level + base*shield
Investigate City = 176 = dist*level + base*pop

Because its the same city:
dist, level are the same in both

For both missions base is 10

4976 = dist*level + base*shield
dist*level = 10shield - 4976

176 = dist*level + base*pop
dist*level = 10pop - 176

Therefore:

10shield - 4976 = 10pop - 176
10shield = 10pop + 4800
shield = pop + 480

Checking the map the city is pop 12 so that is 496 shields.

Another way to do it is:
((Sabotage Production)-(Investigate City)/10)+pop
