I forgot to save the title with the actual tick number. I think this was about 540/550
Corn has quit and I'm watching the north like a hawk.
Up north I'm paying close attention to that wormhole. It's very close to my border and I have no idea what's happening on the other side currently. I have now reached it with a scout so plan to pop that through next turn and see the other end a bit more clearly. What I do see is 2K ships built up on the wormhole at the moment and it's not clear why they haven't gone through. I've decided keeping the warp gate close to the wormhole is too much of a risk so I've dropped that for now.
Down south at the bridgehead the 'battle' rages. It's a point of debate how much battling there is actually going on from the other side here but they have fleets and specialists in the field and I'm working on the assumption I'm facing a coordinated, engaged enemy, because to do otherwise would be crazy.
I have three priorities at the moment
1. Retain and where possible expand the bridgehead so it's more permanent.
2. Find out where Tube-Pipe's core territory is. He's still the most dangerous opponent and at 78 stars (via the main chat, where he's rallying RTQs) he will need to lose 15-20 of them to improve the standing of my allies. That jobs likely to fall to me. Is he east of TheBorg, or south of him?
3. Make sure the north don't attack me.
I'm fairly sure now I'm first in the leaderboard lead (87 stars) but TdT/Uy Scuti/Ragnar are all possible alternative winners. I'd say at this stage the lead I have means there is about a 60-70% chance I'll win individually and I think a 90% chance our alliance wins.
The quitting of Corn makes TdT's expansion much easier.
