A recreation of whatelse happened in tonights game with Kan, Captain2, Scamp, and myself...

Well to be fair someone DID *choughcivgencough* snag Zoey before I joined, I figured pyromania fit Francis. Though I do usually play as her (not that I think you should change the comics, they're fine and good).

I'd probably have set you all on fire anyways as you dragged me away from my Sword of the Stars game while I was exterminating the dolphin people :p
 
Concerning SotS, the only way to not automatically wipe out planets that I've been able to find (aside from a treaty) is to start the battle and order your fleet to sit tight (or pull back to minimize planetary missile damage), then wait for the timer to run out. If you're lucky, you can peace out of the battle early, though I've not seen fully consistent behavior there.

I tried to peacefully solve it automatically with the two freighters, however, I also didn't know two freighters could MURDER half a million people or however many were in that colony (it wasn't very old). They only had the cheapest weapons too. Eh, I can now demand surrenders, the two Liir AIs formed an alliance against me, so I have one small fleet that took 3 of Purple Liir's colonies, they surrendered and I abandoned them xD Scorched earth ftw. My other fleet is still working its away towards the Orange Liir's other colonies, they don't use Node Jumps so its hard to find them.

For now though I am trying to get lots of armour, shielding, and weapon research done as fast as I can so I can start pumping out dreadnoughts.

Haven't figured out how to build a space station, but I have designed a few.
 
A brief history of France: 4000BC-1700AD

Spoiler :
So Helsinki. What started as a quiet invasion just to test the sort of character Captain2 was erupted into full-scale war and, I'm sorry to say, I was soundly defeated. After taking Helsinki for myself Captain2 stuck to his Japanese roots and Pearl Harboured me. Helsinki was his, my offensive armies were wiped out.

Poor occupied Helsinki

There was no way we would be able to liberate Helsinki in the near future - Captain2's military might was far too great. Despite the pleas of the oppressed Finns we had no choice - we had to sign a peace agreement.

For many, many turns we fought a cold war against the brutal Japanese Empire. Our military budget was unmatched, our offensive capabilities unrivaled, our economic power untouchable. Meanwhile the Japanese Empire rotted from within, collapsing under its own cruel regime.

Finally we launched a diplomatic campaign against them. We roused the hearts and minds of the oppressed Helsinki peoples, we placed fear in the heart of the Japanese leadership by massing our armies near their border, we made the Japanese people question the hygienic qualities of their leader.

Finally we conducted an important diplomatic visit to the city, in which Chancellor Kan' Sharuminar stood in front of a massive crowd and demanded: "Mr Captain2, tear down this wall that only stands in a figuratively-speaking way but we all know is there really."

It was really rather inspiring.

civ02.jpg


And so, through purely diplomatic means and a large economic incentive, the Japanese Empire handed control of Helsinki to the French. Now free once more, the Finns unanimously voted to remain part of the French Republic. It is a glorious time for the world, as all look to Chancellor Kan' Sharuminar for inspiration and leadership. There is no threat to world peace.

civ03.jpg

OR IS THERE?

Edit: Ultimately the Japanese Empire completely collapsed, ending any threat of war. What a beautiful game /sniff

 
Japan then fell into the trap that those normally in a cold war fall for when we matched France's military spending despite having less money and less resources to draw upon.

Barbarians attacked our western and northern borders and with the mass of french troops on the south we were uneasy about withdrawing them to fight, losing workers and the precious few resources we had by the handful to Barbarians we were forced to give up Helsinki and admit defeat
 
I had quite a fun day in minecraft.

Today, I made a pirate ship. I know, it's horribly overdone, and mine isn't great, but it was still fun. As you can see, my trusted friend Piggy is to the right of my hand there, wondering what the hell I'm looking at.

The water acted really weird, it stared running into itself and randomly dipping around my ship. Maybe it was just Werewolf Jesus giving it his blessing. Piggy can now clearly see what it was that I was looking at.

This is the upper deck of my ship. Not too impressive yet, planning on adding more later. Stairs are really frustrating to set up in minecraft. A cow is trying to hide behind some dirt, Piggy eyes him suspiciously off screen.

This is the lower deck. Planning to add more here too, so far it only holds a workbench and my storage chest.


My day as a minecraft pirate... er... I mean... my day as a pirate in minecraft: part 2

There is a pretty nice view from the top of the- HOLY $#!^ THEY CAN SWIM?!? OH GOD THEIR COMING RIGHT AT ME!

As I came back up top after running to get my sword and armor, I saw a most troubling sight.

minecraftpirateshippic6.png


PIGGY! HOW COULD YOU?!? I TRUSTED YOU! THEIR COMING FROM ALL SIDES! IT'S AN AMBUSH! THEY WERE WAITING FOR NIGHTFALL!

minecraftpirateshippic7.png


After a long night of fighting off pigs and cows, I decided to celebrate my survival (which was mostly thanks to a suprise counter-attack by my allies the sheep) by eating the remains of the traitor Piggy.

minecraftpirateshippic8.png


Immediately after eating Piggy, I grabbed my shovel went to check on my burried treasure chest, to make sure no one had found it.

minecraftpirateshippic9.png


Thankfully, apon inspection, I found that my entire 87 yellow flower fortune was still there.

BLUE SKY ABOVE AND BLUE OCEAN BELOW! YOU ARE A PIRATE!

Only started playing CoD 4 MP a few months ago, hit 5000 kills today, conveniently exactly at the end of a round:

And here goes a long campaign against the Morrigi, which resulted in the destruction of their capital planet and several well-developed planets.


Spoiler :

A murder of crows approaches!

105498954-4.jpg

My allies join in for this battle and we crush the Morrigi fleet between us.


Spoiler :
105498960-4.jpg

This fleet is severely outdated, it was later destroyed entirely but not after destroying dozens of similarly outdated enemy ships until they committed updated ones. Though they are still nowhere near my technological level.


Spoiler :
105498969-4.jpg

Fighting the Morrigi (ancient spacefaring race of avians), they have the ships with the thin, birdlike profiles.


Spoiler :

105622539-4.jpg

Glassing the Morrigi's capital planet. Two billion inhabitants wiped out.


Spoiler :
105622542-4.jpg

Fighting some Morrigi support ships, I had already wiped out their warships in that small fleet. First world I've come across with a background other than star-filled blackness.


Spoiler :
105622545-4.jpg

Another battle.


Spoiler :
105622548-4.jpg

I wiped out 78 enemy ships in this battle, and didn't lose any. Indeed, the Imperial Dolphin Fishers (there's a race of space dolphins whom I've been at war with the entire game) have only lost TWO ships.


Spoiler :
105622550-4.jpg

It shoots asteroids. Incredibly impractical and possibly entirely useless to me, I'm going to build it anyways for the sheer awesomeness. Plus I'm drowning in more money then I know what to do with. Dunno how I'm going to use it, as my main fleet will have a lot of ships in it and you can only deploy so many at a time.

A bit. Would certainly make a nice target to test out my first atomic bomb...
