Yesterday I saw on the oof that Sphenodon was looking for 40MM deuterium. I figured he was planning a hit or moving his fleet out. I saw cargo ships coming and going with obvious trades and then his fleet took off . . . on a 19-hour one-way journey back to his nearest moon.
What was more interesting was that he had 800 LC returning 3 hours after his fleet left. I knew he wasn't going to waste the deuterium to recall his fleet just for me, and if I waited, it wouldn't return in time anyway. Plus, with his entire fleet enroute, he didn't have any other ships that could intercept me in time, and if he tried I could just send more ships.
He came back online about 60-90 minutes before the hit and said:
