Zorg Empire

Well, this was an interesting event this morning. I logged on and almost immediately I was PM'd by a player asking for help. He was being attacked by Tanktheman.

I got the details of the attack and determined that an ACS Defend was out of the question because his ACS Depot finished building about 2 minutes before the attack.

I asked for the attack times and fleet size. I quickly calculated for a Half Blind Phalanx hit. Sent Recs and launched. I must have been about 1 or 2 seconds in front of his fleet (confirmed by Tanktheman):

The attacker has won the battle !
You receive 2000000 units of Metal, 2000000 units of Crystal and 1429288 units of Deuterium.
The attacker has lost a total of 0 units.
The defender has lost a total of 0 units.
A debris field containing 0 units of Metal and 0 units of Crystal has formed in orbit around the planet.


I launched again after probing and finding his fleet arrived back just after the first attack. This time the target was destroyed:

The attacker has won the battle !
You receive 1920500 units of Metal, 1920500 units of Crystal and 714644 units of Deuterium.
The attacker has lost a total of 0 units.
The defender has lost a total of 123.477.000 units.
A debris field containing 55.079.100 units of Metal and 19.007.100 units of Crystal has formed in orbit around the planet.
The probability of creating a moon is : 19 %


Luckily for me the Recs had not arrived yet so I was able to capture all the DF within seconds after the second attack.

You collect; 55.079.100 units of Metal and 19.007.100 units of Crystal.



Feeling a bit lucky, I also launched Cargos to capture as much resources I could too, but he came online and messaged me.

Good luck rebuilding your fleet.

Very impressive, mark of a true fleeter to successfully execute the blind lanx. Enjoy the spoils and the bragging rights!

FR Tank.

sorry to see tank couldnt keep the fleet flying. yes great tricks torgard.

but i think its called half blind. just FYI or correct me if i am wrong.

GLoTr tank hope u get what u lost fast.

enjoy the res Torgard. once again really impressive hit.

I hate to spoil a party, but technically this hit was a return lanx / half-blind lanx and not a complete blind lanx. None-the-less it is the best hit skill-wise that has been on the forums in months. Enjoy the profits Torgard.

GLoTR Tank, not much you can do has you safe from these kinds of thinds

How is this a blind lanx if you relaunched after his fleet landed and you probed it?
Non the less, good hit

Good Hit! Good luck on rebuild Tank

sorry to rain on the party but this is to true. if the first hit would have made it then yeah it would have been a return half blind lanix hit. but since you failed. then reprobed and launched....
anyways i think tank is really happy you didn't launch for the resources sooner lol.
great hit and FR tank
