I'm starting to feel a too great unbalance here ... slow tech+no cheap makes the Elder techtrading too powerfull, combined with the "one target" for the Elders ... the younger, unsupported races would not get the time to develop ... add to that no gate to support eachother by defending their planets en mass, since afterall all they have got is *numbers*, as in more low tech ships ... but now we are too isolated ...
</end rambling>
That's enough doom thinking for today!

Unfortunately that fits with my thoughts.
While trying to think of a way to not only sit aside and see one of the elders winning, here a wild strat:
Not waiting for BBs and Jihads but massproducing
* baz- or col-CCs
* sapper-CCs
* FFs to explode minefields
* bombers
and gating them to the nearest gate of one of the elders and going straight for the HW.
Actually such a strat isn't very wild and might be even tried by the Elders vs each other.
The tech we could have rather soon, much sooner than the needed ironium. It's a pity that all of us have taken OBRM.

So I count that as a vote against trying to make peace with the shadows and their allies?

Mmmh, actually no and yes.
It would had been my first choice to NAP the Centauri/Shadows but look at my message exchange with both of them... they aren't interested. And then there is the lurking question: could we trust in any treaty with the Shadows or their allies?
