Not the best loss/gain ratio, granted, but i made a fair haul with the aid of Slash and Coolhands cyclers. Cheers gents, you rock. Lily also had 2 RIP's on the planet that i was attempting to crash with the fleet, however, unfortunate circumstances made her log on minutes before my attack and off-world the RIP's with some of the resources. Not enough deut to get her fleet outa there i suppose. I was also going to go back for a couple follow-ups and pillage the rest of the resources but she hit vacation mode right after my attack landed. She was however, charming enough to grace me with this message before she went:

EDITED- Slash

Thank you very much Lily, appreciated, only i'm not an admin. If someone can't handle the fundamentals of a combat simulation game they shouldn't start in the first place. Everyone will be crashed at some point, it's just a matter of timing and luck. Don't bite off what you can't chew.

DO NOT POST PM CONTENT ON THE FORUMS.- Slash

Great hit, Ista!!!!

Looks like V has an alliance membership slot open all of a sudden.

Good hit. we will all lose our flees a some point, the real test is how we will react to it.

i would say GLOTR but does not look like she will

Ah sorry about that Slash, my bad. But yeah, GLIRL Lily, think i made her ragequit. I would probably feel bad if i had a heart. Meh.

-Istalris-

Excellent hit mate. I have been advised that Lily has quit the game and ~V~. Its a shame how she responded to the attack. Well done!

Friggin' comedy of errors on the recovery and relocation effort on my part.

"Yeah I'll have 1400 recyclers ready ..."

"OK, fat-fingered a queue, make that 1100 recyclers ..."

"When was that hit again? Oh yeah ..."

"Uhhh, ok ... cargos. Yeah. Need cargos. Wait a tic ..."

The Coolhand Salvage Corporation is in danger of losing their gubmint contract.

Great hit, Ista!

Good luck on whatever comes next, Lily!

Heh, not to mention the wierdest transport fleet ever! Had an Espionage Ship at the head if i'm seeing correctly.
Cheers for the help anyway, dunno what i'd do without you guys. Probably get off my lazy behind and build more of my own cyclers but oh well.

-Istalris-

great hit there Istalris! good to see you out from under that (quite impressive) shell you got..

where is the post about the new no1 in defence?? let me be the first to congratulate you.. *claps*

Haha, thanks SD. Yeah deciding to leave my turtle roots behind, all these hits make me want to get in on the action.

-Istalris-

that should make it all interesting
