- I was speaking largely in the context of PBEMs; duels are a bit different.

- @Entropicuity: IS do tend to be pretty decent in the pre-cruiser and cruiser eras, due to the Croby Sharmor. But yes, they do prefer the Nubian era to the BB eras for a few reasons: 1) by that point their orgies are fully built 2) beam Nubians aren't affected as much by the weapons premium 3) Nubians mean anyone can cloak anything to 98% by using overcloakers, amplifying the power of the IS Tachyon Detector.
