Mutineers shall walk the plank

^cashto@MEC (GT advexp, advtac, res, sup, drydock) vs vogue@SysX (Dreg advtac, advexp, starbase, advsup)
Inside out / Can't remember setts / XC04b
Started 5 on 5, grew to 11 on 11, finished as a 8v8. 2:26

I'd like to point out that the reason this game went so long was that we were down players and about 50% AllegSkill the whole game, largely because Obi_wan, the little punk, would rather sit in NOAT and whine about how unfair it is that his rank is stuck at (4). Thanks for Dome and TheAlaskan for jumping in at the end and finishing the game off.

A brief summary:

Vogue pushes next to my garr, right. I have a tele there and rip an exp in. He then tries to bomb exp, fails several times. We get bombers and blow his op. We push on to the right choke and bomb the tac in that sector.

Vogue gets home exp and specmines. We capture the map, buying a tac high. Eventually we SB all his specmines. We push an adv pali con to his home, and it is briefly succesful, but eventually it gets bombed.

I get SY next to his home left and launch 4 cruisers simultaneously. Two cruisers get garr, another two go for the exp and fall one missle short.

Vogue gets sup high, mines to galvs, and kills some of our stuff.

I buy a res and a sup because I'm tired of hearing Turkey whine how much money I have. I don't do anything with them for the rest of the game.

Vogue pushes op to my SY and destroys it.

I rebuild SY middle and blow his exp with four cruisers, but Vogue simultaneously captures our tac.

Dome htts a couple of sectors and gets the tac back. A three SB run on our tac falls short. A newbie solo cruisers the sup.

I hope you booted those cruiser pilots for their failure.

The failure was in going for the garr instead of the exp - and cashto was the main culprit! If I was him, I'd have booted him for sure.

Glad you finally won that game. When I had to go, you were sitting on $25k and didn't even have AP, or any SY tech apart from sky1/LS1/TacNuke1 cruisers! What are you saving up for!?

Exactly what I meant, if you'd all gone for the Exp it would have been gg.

Vogue went back to SysX? Wow that didn't last long.

tbh it's a worry for us in SysX as well.
