Oh, I'm only going almost 3x everything else :) Still, the Drengin declared war on me, so I checked on my Survey ships, y'know, to be sure they were safe. Thunk! "What was that?"

After Action Report by Rabid Rob, alias Rob Johnson I've only been playing a couple weeks, but I've already been impressed by the mere fact that I lost my first 4 games. It's been awhile since that's happened :) I decided to start by maximizing spending, and throwing all spending into military, to really throw out my colony ships. This works splendidly, allowing me to grab the good planets to the north, east, and west quite handily. Of course, everyone talks
