Adv28 Shadowflit's Game

[Shadowflit]

So - since I'm a new face, a few lines of introduction:
I recently thought of civ again (ages ago I'd tried the then current version) while waiting for the Sins of a Solar Empire, and decided to give it another shot. Browsed through some of the reports of SG's (starting with the Sirian/Sulla Cuban Isolationists game, I believe) and single player games while I was learning the game. After following enough links I found myself here and played a couple of the older epics (sometimes following the variant rules, sometimes just not wanting to trust my fate to the random map generator). More recently I decided to pick up BtS so I could actually participate in the current games, and here I am.

As I mention at the top of my report - this was the second BtS game I played, and while I did aim myself towards the scoring criteria initially - I wasn't expecting too much from myself yet.

Anyways: report
(warning: I didn't take the time to split it up into multiple pages, so if it seems like its loading slow - that's because you get all the pictures at once)

Scoring: 474 + 2844 = 3318

Nice report and welcome.

can sabotage space ship parts, even after they're sitting on the ship.

Now, that I did not know. That is scary.

Shadowflit, well written and thanks for sharing.

Now, that I did not know. That is scary.

I played a deity OCC where not long after Apollo I had two parts sabotaged the same turn...was afraid that with that kind of success rate I'd never finish the thing. Fortunately it was a bizzare fluke and suffered no more sabotage even though I had to pause building several times to burn down culture cities.

Thanks for the comments (I hadn't meant to disappear for so long, but then classes caught up with me...)

Yeah, after thinking about the whole thing, the sabotaging of space ship parts after they're built makes sense both realistically and as a game mechanic so I accepted the whole situation in the end. Still, it was a big shock.
