Hi!

I just read most of it. Decent arguments on both sides but the nub camp ignored the fact that DNs can counter design too.

Nonbody objects that DNs can't be used as counterdesign to Nubs. But in a real game it's somewhat problematic.

Short story: by building DNs the WM player will use quite some minerals and also reveal his DN designs. Both these facts will work against him if others get Nubs.

Long story Wink

:

In a game a WM will usually get his DN hull 10 - 20 turns earlier than other player(s) will get Nubs. Since he knows he has big advantage with his DNs over BBs Weights

, and that this advantage will be (more or less) gone when others get Nubs Sick

, will he very likely use it and build _lots_ of DNs to get into a significantly stronger position (by making his oponent(s) weaker Hit over head

) in that timeframe (at least that's what I'd do Twisted Evil

).

Let's assume he and his friend succeded in his plan: they removed one player entirely wOOt 2

, and severely crippled another neighbour Yes

, but the "AntiWM" alliance on the other side of the universe managed to get to Nubs without being involved in mayor wars Yuck

. They have now less planets than his alliance just got, but more minerals, since he and his victims used or destroyed most of their mined minerals. However AntiWM aliance has most of their planets at peek production, while in his new conquest there are mostly empty or bombed-out shells Wheelchair

that need 10-20 turns to become productive.

But he'll not get them, as the AntiWM alliance on the other side of the universe just started building Nubs, that are (unfortunatelly) well tailored to his main two DN designs Evil or Very Mad

. Since they know how many he has (they did ther info gathering Sneaky

), they'll also not overbuild (just the amount to successfully wipe out his main fleet and the flet of his friend) Evil or Very Mad

and save minerals to counter his counter Furious

.

So what can he do now? If he faces those Nubs he'll lose badly Dead

. If he counter-designs those Nubs Thumbs Up

he'll give even more of his rather scarce min ...
