Ike 1 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I didn't mean to HoF him . . . really! As if it were not obvious from what is below, this was very definitely not the plan. I probed around looking for metal deposits and came across this planet (and a few others in the neighborhood) with ~800K metal and some defenses. Just what Ike ordered. So I sent ships out to retrieve said resources to about 5-6 planets and was busy playing Mythos while I waited. Every half hour or so I'd check for activity on my targets and the Main planets. Nothing. I last checked on this one about 5-10 minutes before I hit. No activity. I check messages after the hit and there is this big yellow battle report. At first I could not figure out where this was and if someone attacked me or I attacked someone. I eventually figured it out and checked the CR and figured out what happened. His fleet must have returned a few minutes before I attacked or right after my initial probe. So I probe, see more res and the remnants of his fleet and launch 3 waves to carry off the booty and recs (3:40:00 away). At least I grabbed the DF. The really amusing thing is he did not get a 20% moon on the first hit, but he got a 5XXX moon on the 4% follow-up. _____________________________________ Attacker Ike _____________________________________ Small Cargo 80 (Lost = 80) Cruiser 100 (Lost = 71) Battleship 50 (Lost = 8) Battlecruiser 50 (Lost = 4) _____________________________________ _____________________________________ Defender Tito_is_back _____________________________________ Large Cargo 52 (Lost = 52) Light Fighter 502 (Lost = 500) Heavy Fighter 12 (Lost = 12) Cruiser 15 (Lost = 13) Battleship 53 (Lost = 39) Bomber 10 (Lost = 4) Rocket Launcher 35 (Lost = 35) Light Laser 123 (Lost = 123) Ion Cannon 7 (Lost = 6) Small Shield 1 (Lost = 0) Large Shield 1 (Lost = 0) _____________________________________ The battle ended in a draw, both fleets withdraw to their home planets. The attacker lost a total of 2,997,000 units. The defender lost a total of 6,099,000 units. At these space coordinates now float 1,847,700 metal and 771,900 crystal. The chance for a moon to be created is 20% Follow-ups: The attacker has won the battle! He captured 529,649 metal, 245,882 crystal, and 41,093 deuterium The attacker lost a total of 8000 units. The defender lost a total of 1,722,000 units. At these space coordinates now float 294,000 metal and 114,000 crystal. The chance for a moon to be created is 4% The enormous amounts of free metal and crystal draw together and form a moon around the planet. He captured 264,824 metal, 122,941 crystal, and 20,549 deuterium The attacker lost a total of 0 units. The defender lost a total of 314,000 units. He captured 132,424 metal, 61,475 crystal, and 10,276 deuterium The attacker lost a total of 4000 units. The defender lost a total of 128,000 units. Recyclers: Your 300 Recyclers have a total capacity of 6,000,000. At the target, 2,142,300 metal and 886,500 crystal are floating in space. You have harvested 2,142,300 metal and 886,500 crystal. Total profits ~ 1.2 MM. Weird. Link to comment
