I wish to confess. I was the player who 'backstabbed' huinmaiden. It has been very interesting and informative reading people's posting on both sides of the debate. I'd like to add the 'perpetrator's' point of view.

This is only my 3rd Stars! game against other players, my first as a WM, so I don't know all the no-no's. I've taken concrete agreements very seriously, including NAP's with warning of expiration clauses. As came out in this discussion, there was no formal agreement. I would stop a ship of mine at his starbases and they would always get refueled, so I thought about taking advantage of the Friend setting by gating in warships and bombers to kill all his starbases and much of his population very quickly. I mentioned my plans to 2 allies, and they didn't say not to. So I did it, and it was quite successful, except he added a gate to an empty Space Dock the very same turn.

In retrospect, it was an underhanded thing for me to do, and, whether you believe me or not, I will NEVER do it again. I have seen the frustration and disappointment it caused to huinmaiden, and I don't want to do that again to anyone, nor have it happen to me.

As an addendum, the Stars! gods may have had some revenge on me, because the very next turn my computer had such problems that I was unable to go online at all and either send orders or send email. My strike force got seriously depleted by counterattacks and by rebuilt Space Docks.

You did not backstab me. That was just me talking rubbish when it happened and I was just pissed off and taking it to personal.

Up The Irons!
