How close are you on the battleboard? 7 squares or 5 squares? (Are all 5 players on the board?)


There are usually 7 squares, one of them doesn't go into fights at the moment... but perhaps we could arrange with another team to fill the battle board. But: what for?

Do more than you and the WM count on the battleboard usually?


Not really - but the WM has begun to transfer his chaff to his partners. THere are usually two of their team and me, eventually my partner.

Does he use max damage ratio, or max damage orders (or other) usually when not using retreat tactics?


Max damage against Starbase/Any. No retreat orders yet.

Are either of you using cloakers, could they be effective? (With BET, lighter cloakers are more cost effective than usual and may help in suprise minefield slowing him down).


One of the enemies is playing SS. He has transfered stealth bombers to his partners, so they may cloak.
We'll have overcloakers soon. DOwnside: Their scanning network is quite good.

Do you have slot room for an extra design either long term or short term? Dedicated sapper that stays out of his beamer range (and thus no need for beamer deflectors) may help. Your missiles are 4x as effective (no shields and double damage) if you can build enough to bring down his shields quickly.


The enemy's main ship is a R3 Beamer width very high init - so no chance to stay out of his range. I could just build a first shot design that stays out of range of his BMC "firster" shot designs. That'd need 5 slots of BSC and battlespeed 1 in the first round. I can't say if it is worth the sacrifice...

A downside to attacking him is he then has extra few turns where he can spread out and hit more of your planets per turn.


Exactly. And my priority is to defend my remaining planets, kill his main fleet as fast as possible. Tests say that I'll need two or three years to gather more of my Nubians.
