I've been playing a game that just had a very interesting twist happen. I'm playing on a Large map. I'm in the center right side of the galaxy. Basically the map setup has the Arcean in the upper right corner, Dregin in the lower right, Torin in the lower center, the Yor in the lower left corner, and the Altarian taking up a 1/3 of the galaxy from the center to the upper left.
The Altarian have the largest empire. I come second in technology to them. I'm kind of like the US and the Altarians are like the USSR. Recently I beat the Dregin down to one planet. I've been also sending the Yor technology to fight the Altarians. Hoping to slow down the Altarians. The Altarians appear to be pretty close to wrapping up the game. Then the unexpected happend, the Yor surrendered their empire to me. Shortly after, an assination event occured that forced the Altarian to declare war against me. I'm currently not in the best position to fight them so I seek an alliance with the Torin and Arcean. They where already at war with them. The talks succeeded! My empire is now larger and my allies are doing most of the fighting while I build up. What a great game.
