The fleet versions is the part I want to know the most imput from you guys. I had reservation for the first one but after thinking about it and getting Daren's second opinion, it gives us good firepower on a budget and the next week or the week after is when we will buy another battleship to add more modern muscle to the fleet.
Opinions?

Er, I don't mean to sound dumb, but what do you mean by 2+ and 1+?

Hey don't be nervous about asking questions if you don't understand something I say. By 2+ and 1+ I mean 2 days from earth and 1 day from earth. If you look at the bases section on the main site. Then click Earth Sphere space you can get a better idea. If you have anymore questions don't hesitate to ask.

Oh, yeah, I had a guess that might've been the case, I just wanted to make sure.
So, is it possible for us to move to 1+ and duel in the same update, or did I misunderstand that?

The only way we could duel and move in the same update would be if you were riding on a ship with the person your dueling. (Someone can correct me if I have that wrong but I don't think I do.)
Also another thing to consider for our overall strategy, Texas Colony at 2+. When me and Chan had been talking a few weeks before the game I believe he mentioned capturing it to use as a forward command base. So we should consider either capturing it ourselves or trying to destroy it somehow.

Guys, we have to consider this; what are Chan's assets and what is he going to do with them?
The way I see it, he's going to have plenty of people pooling money into him, and he's going to use those assets to build a massive-ass fleet. Can we somehow use fleet configuration #1 to fight him and not completely get our ass destroyed? AFAIK Chan is also tactically sound, so trying to outmaneuver or outwit him will be difficult.
Plus, if we fail with forgoing the mines and instead heading straight into attacking him without an income for the future, the risks become that much greater; and if we don't destroy his infrastructure, then we'll be significantly behind him in money and time.
IMO we have to fight fire with fire; I'm going with option 2. Build mines, then build a kickass fleet.

Well I can only base this assumption off what he said before. He will build mines or capture texas colony. Everything else is kinda up in the air.

Okay. And I think, he's going to build mines. Ryocha and her friends are smart; they'll listen to Chan and his guiding advice. I don't think he's the type of guy to squander resources like well-meaning teammates.
They're going to be building up a kickass fleet. So out of curiosity, if this does go into a battle of attrition, who gets the advantage?

That would depend on if he builds the mines. I believe EF players generally make more. So if he forgos the mines we should rake in more rp weekly then them.

I honestly think we should turtle just a bit, and build a few mines (and defenses!) at first. Zeon's starting defensive position is way stronger than ours, If I was Chan I'd build near the more secure outlying areas. And getting to them will probably be impossible at the beginning. So I'd counter with maximizing RP gain ourselves, and patrol 2+ or 1+ for now. Most of all, our shop sucks right now, and we have no (D) space units.

So, we're supposed to send a new action email today, right? Or was yesterday some kind of exception?
ED: Also, this whole dueling thing.. Is it really the best choice? It'd be damn stupid if one of us got killed off this early.
