A Quack response to the Trog notes.
============================================================ ===
I don't think it is such a sure thing that Trog would
have had an easy kill either early or late.
My HE was a much quicker starter than most HE and I
was extremely defensive, including lots of planet
hopping to hide ship movements and the earliest
minefields.
Trog with his expensive factories didn't have a great
early ramp up, he was more HP than HG compared to
most, a late game power.
...
It would be hard seeing the game last to 2425 at the
rate it was going. If so, I would have had defensive
fleets on some planets and my own way of growing pop
and massive hush a booming type obliterations in one
turn. (Trog worlds are all green for me after a good
hush a boom, unlike my worlds being red after his pop
drop).
In the case where Trog backstabbed, I would have been
aiming for Mits or Wolf (or perhaps Animal) to win,
throwing everything I could and even giving away
planets to that end.
I had the best mineral possibillities with my HE being
spread and my 50% mining bonus which translates into
big late game fleets (even after giving more minerals
to Trog and Mits).
...
I was willing to go to war 2430, because I had maxxed
out factories. I wasn't good at tech, better at
warships. I didn't like the alternative of
underhanded diplomacy trying to provoke wars against
Budgie while playing frield to get the 15 planets he
offered me.
I thought the Trog/Mits/Wolf was worth more to keep
friendly than the Budgie/unknown and struck when
Budgie was weakest... still battling Spartins.
