I take 4 ships 1 from A, 1 from B, 1 from C, and one from E and launch an attack against Merchant's D!

Animal, Mercenary, you up for this?

Lekkit · « **Reply #51 on:** August 11, 2012, 07:27:40 am »

Did I do that right?

Yep.

Also I think it might be a good idea for players to bold your final orders from now on, so I don't accidentally think you're inviting someone who you're only entertaining the thought of inviting.

Axxle · « **Reply #53 on:** August 11, 2012, 07:33:42 am »

You can also say "take ships from my home colonies evenly" and I'll do my best to do so.

Lekkit · « **Reply #54 on:** August 11, 2012, 07:35:24 am »

OK! I invite Animal and Mercenary to help me.

Kuildeous · « **Reply #55 on:** August 11, 2012, 08:43:08 am »

Well, as the local Merchant, I am all for distributing wealth, so I open the invitation to all interested parties to help defend against this audacious Lightning and partake in the generous rewards the universe has to offer.

I'm also sure that with so many defenders, we are bound to win, and I can always buy more troops in case this Lightning has some trick up his sleeve.

And since victory is so imminent for the defenders, I really hope that we can have a party thrown by the Animal.

What is this? Why are you conspiring against me, Merchant? Youalwaysdothisit'snotfair! I STRONGLY encourage all troops to rally behind me and embark on this epic conquest against the crooked merchant race. Think about all the better prices you'd get if you controled some of his colonies! To arms, fellow Aliens!

This is only flavor, right?

Lekkit · « **Reply #58 on:** August 11, 2012, 08:53:36 am »

It may only be flavor, but you have to take that into account too! Flavor is important. As is SPEEEEEED!!! Quickly, make your decisions!

Grujah · « **Reply #59 on:** August 11, 2012, 08:59:44 am »

I go after Dsell anyhow.

Grujah · « **Reply #60 on:** August 11, 2012, 09:01:00 am »

I'll send in CO in any case.

It is indeed flavor, as my assets are all tied up in off-planet accounts. If you try to invade, you'll only gain humility as my hired guns teach you lesson. If you defend, then you gain riches.

Also, I believe that technically, the attacker invites first and then the defender, which precludes the attacker from changing his invitations. But, this is a "friendly" game of Cosmic Encounter, and if Lekkit wants to open the invitations to everyone, I am cool with retrofitting.

Lekkit · « **Reply #62 on:** August 11, 2012, 09:46:19 am »

We Lightning lead short lives and regret nothing! I stand by my earlier invitation. I do not back away!

cayvie · « **Reply #63 on:** August 11, 2012, 10:50:42 am »

Do I declare in the thread if I'm helping anyone?

cayvie · « **Reply #64 on:** August 11, 2012, 10:59:17 am »

I'm going to help the offense with 1 ship!

Grujah · « **Reply #65 on:** August 11, 2012, 11:27:23 am »

We declare in turn order, but you can always voice your opinion.

I've send Conditional Order (CO) to axxle saying "when its my turn to declare, I'll do this".

COs are boss.

SWEET! We'll throw a nice party when we win!

Dsell · « **Reply #67 on:** August 11, 2012, 01:22:57 pm »

So I'm supposed to announce whether I'm allying first, right? And I do it in-thread? Oh well, I'll help the defense with 4 ships, 1 from A, B, C, and D! We cannot lose if we fight together! Rewards for all but those terrible offensive types!

Grujah · « **Reply #68 on:** August 11, 2012, 01:32:46 pm »

Quote from my CO:

"I'll send in 4 ships for defense." A,B,C,D, of course.

Actually I'm going to have to put my foot down here. The order of alliances invitations is very important tactically, especially because Animal is in the game.

If you ally with the defense, please also CO what defender rewards you want to collect.

I also made a mistake, zxcvbn2 meant to be Pacifist, not Hacker. Updating shortly.

Glooble · « **Reply #70 on:** August 11, 2012, 03:59:39 pm »

So I can respond now to Lightning's Invitation?

I will commit 3 ships do your attack, from B, C, and D.

Glooble · « **Reply #72 on:** August 11, 2012, 04:04:36 pm »

Ok. I temporarily retract my offer of assistance.

Galzria · « **Reply #73 on:** August 11, 2012, 04:40:59 pm »

My CO was placed this morning. Axxle has it. Waiting on Zxcvbn2.
