AAR4- Now it begins

[Kilkakon]

Great fun and read. Glad that you liked my faction too! It is impressive he held out that long against Antimind yeah... he would have done great on a bigger map but Antimind just eats everything with Psi and Air.

Still, thanks for including me

No problem guys.

Yeah, I thought a smaller map would be shorter for an AAR. In fact, this game was long and brutal for a small map.

Glad you enjoyed, Jarlwolf. Who knows, the Reds may end up rising again in a future AAR.

Kilk, your Oblivion did hold out Antimind. If he had more room, this may have been a much different AAR.

Good read, good game. Looking forward to the next game (and I encourage you to give them all a techshare 4, otherwise you may leave them in the dust in tech since they are all always at war with each other so no tech trading).

Alien factions use probes on each other quite a bit.

Also, I will not be benefiting from one of Morgan's big advantages: trade pacts and commerce. I also anticipate that extended periods of Free market are going to be out of the question since I am going to be under pressure militarily.

Aliens are also notoriously bad to trade with and tend to be really hostile to players. If I do manage to pact or treaty one to get better tech trades, I automatically will be at war shortly with the other 5 in short order.

I will not be the lone ranger on slow teching due to no trades

I've just read 15+ PAGES of AAR without being bored. Good job with the AAR and some really interesting discussions arose from it, so thanks to the entire community for this (but mostly to Green, of course). It's been a hell heaven of a ride!

heck please.  Been a teeny bit too much language on these boards lately, and I hate editing people.

Duly noted. I don't mind that sort of thing myself, but I do mind if it makes other people's AC2 experience less pleasant.

That's the spirit.
