As a killing-one-neighbour-and-survive-to-end AR in Glacier II

Wow, you did that with Const normal and BET?!? I'm impressed. Do tell how.

Diplomacy! Agressively winning early skirmishes helped by NAS, and later being lucky to be in a position where others didn't find it worth in the grand scheme to take over my space until late in the game.

Yea, but this can be said for all races. Picking your fights etc, is usually the surest way to win, or lose.

There were several non AR races that died early too. They didn't pick there fights very well, got unlucky, or decided to forgo diplomacy.

Also, you have the rock/paper/scissor effect. A WM destroyed one AR, then got creamed by a SS later for lack of minefields and ungateable ships. Another WM, pushing the early weap advantage and got nuked by a packet slinging IT.

Adversity is part of the game. Per found a way to survive early. I am sure others will too.

Realize tho, it may never be easy to play an AR. Some players fear them, and just want them dead. Wink
