Guys. I may be somewhat powerful and stuff, but I am not the Arsenal of NESerdom! I might be after I take out Kenny, but right now I'm just trying to build up and take him out without getting. Too stagnant, or waste too much time slugging with him. I'm spending a great majority of my economy sending tech as it is. Sending me 60 credits to send 75 credit techs isn't going to help.
I will get weapons 6 after production. I will immediately send it to Shady Daft Thomas JoanK. You guys figure out what to do after that.
Also, Ravni offered to buy tech for big bucks. 230 for terra5 and manu5. I don't see how I can say no, although I believe I can demand a higher price for various reasons, and delay sending. He is working with my tech partner though, so if I didn't take the deal he will get the tech regardless without a net bonus for us.
As for tech, Shady is working on Manu6. While I trade for weapons 6. I am currently Backteching experi4, and expect to go into pure weapons research afterward.
EDIT hyperspace will be more useful.
EDIT the extended scanning let me spot his core. A change of plan is Necessary. We're now planning an assassination with one of my two central fleets.
