Hey everyone,
Good job this week! We eliminated Blex Fleet which moved Dren up to block Ohm Fleet, leaving passage through +2DE open again.
We can now also be fairly sure that any the named NPC ships of each fleet will inevitably escape to Ohm Fleet or Helsing Fleet no matter what happens. We successfully disabled Blex's Magellan Revised only to have his disabled ship be recovered by Ohm.
We are then able to decoy the Cygnus Fleet Beta and escape into Dren Fleet, which is where we are now.
If we move from Dren Fleet, we can be caught in the open. Jim also pointed out that Dren Fleet will not survive if the Damocles and Cygnus Fleet attack it.
The good news is, we have a chunkload of Resource Points after being innovative for the past few weeks.
However, in our current situation, it would take at least a week before any reinforcements would arrive from 401(K). Hoping to last that long will not be difficult at least.
So, if we cannot go to or wait for stuff to come from the base, then the base must come to us.
Laredo Veil has 855 RP. I am having him leave the Lucifer’s Fury and build a space fortification. He will buy 10x AA, 1x MPC, 1x SAM, 2x Canon for it at the same time. So that would be 300 + 300 RP for the space fortification, 10 x 9 RP for the AA, 90 RP for the MPC, 18 RP for the SAM, and 2x 27 RP for the Cannons.
Apparently he’s going to name his new SS base the “Purgatorio” or Italian for Purgatory.
Everyone else, SEND YOUR RP TO LAREDO VEIL. This is important so that he can finish fortifying the new base tomorrow. I am also giving him 1,418 RP.
Laredo Veil will be purchasing on tomorrow’s update 3x MPC, 2x Large MPC (A), 1x SAM, 1x Panzergrenadiers, 3x Marines,10x Magella Attack Tanks, 10x Gattle, 8x Zaku II HMT, a Targetting Facility, and 3x Asteroid Cluster. This maxes out the new base somewhat.
(Edited to reflect shop rules)
What this accomplished is that now Latooni has more things to worry about and we have more options.
Latooni cannot prevail against Dren Fleet and us with just the Damocles Fleet. If he leaves the new base alone, he risks the base spawning new units or us repairing there. If he sieges with just Cygnus Beta, our PCs can shred it to bits on Monday. If he sieges with both fleets, then we can start picking off the fleets with our PCs.
At the same time, I’m going to buying 4x Zaku II HMT (no idea why Yoritomo is on my ship but those are the ropes), 1x Artillery Service and 1x MS Support Service, and join Dren Fleet. This way if Cygnus attacks me, I can sacrifice the MS from the MS Support Service. If Cygnus attacks Dren Fleet, then whoop-dee-doo, it’s going to be a slaughter of the EFSF.
I also need Frenzy (Richard Banks) to go on Overwatch with his ship, the Azrael. Jim’s in +3DE taking care of business of his own and will hopefully join us soon.
Any questions?
