As most of you may know, I'm not one for posting CR's in the forum much. But this one has an interesting story behind it, so I thought I'd share.

It all started when I received some probes from Sleeper (a.k.a. Kron) on a moon of mine that had a healthy store of resources and LCs (and even 2 RIPs). I knew that he would probably try to hit it, but unfortunately for me I got pulled away from the computer for a bit, and came back to this:

The attacker has won the battle !
You receive 2500000 units of Metal, 2500000 units of Crystal and 2500000 units of Deuterium.
The attacker has lost a total of 0 units.
The defender has lost a total of 185.250.000 units.
A debris field containing 57.600.000 units of Metal and 53.550.000 units of Crystal has formed in orbit around the planet.
The probability of creating a moon is : 18 %

However, that wasn't the only thing I came back to. There was another wave incoming in 3 minutes, this one of BS and LCs for the res. Kron was worried about the ninja, though, as probes were coming about every 20 seconds to my moon. Well, I thought, to hell with it, and with about 20 seconds remaining, I jumped my entire fighting fleet, along with all my recs, from my main moon. This amounted up to 1k BS, 50 bombers, 3 RIPs, 100 BCs, and 1k recs. I quickly launched my recs at the DF and waited as the timer ticked down. Kron had probed once more, however, and for a moment I thought he would recall. However, he called back the wrong fleet (as he told me in PMs afterward), and we ended up with this:

The defender has won the battle !
The attacker has lost a total of 115.755.000 units.
The defender has lost a total of 1.260.000 units.
A debris field containing 38.956.500 units of Metal and 31.252.500 units of Crystal has formed in orbit around the planet.
The probability of creating a moon is : 18 %

Not too bad for a miner. Although I will be building more recs, as I only got partial DF (with 6 waves):

All in all, not too bad. I talked with Kron after, and we both agreed it was fun times, so GLoTR with what you lost, buddy.

Nice story behind this. Glad to see a CR from Ace .

Glotr, I'm sure it will be swift.

I believe this is actually our first CR.way to go karroth and Glotr kron.I could feel your pain at recalling the wrong fleet

well Kron was worried that something might just happen, saw him biting his nails in the chat room.

after the hit i heard a yelp from him too

anyway he should have checked the forum, for karrs online time, i think he did not think u would be trying for ninja.

anyway nice story and game play. Good fun for u two and for us the beholders too

GLoTr on both side.

lol i was totally expecting a dodge on the hit since i did see he was active but after the deut landed and his planets showed inactivity and the fleet was still down i took a shot at it. was still thinking he was going to dodge but i thought the hell with it. to bad i drank to much coffe and am twitchy and clicked the wronge fleet. my poor 6k LC's and 300 moon shoot's lol

Kron and I like to dance a little dance every time he comes out of VM lol

yes we do lol. and i believe there is also a few others that feel the same way

Sweetness KM, looks like you guys had a fun tug o' war!
