Games Summary:
In the first game CK9, TH300, LORDOFPAIN and Highlander was unexpectedly joined by an unknown commander by the name of BlueEarth as they took on the challenge of DangerZone.
After a sattelite failure all contact was lost with TH300 and Highlander, forcing CK9, LoP and Blueearth to battle the AI alone.
Being at a serious disadvantage after losing two of their allies, CK9, LoP and BlueEarth was in the end forced to admit defeat and was shamed by the computer with the usual "You have failed. Our colony is doomed" resonating in their speakers.
In the mean time, TH300 and Highlander got Caught in the Crossfire. After feeding the Blight a couple of times, the two finally destroyed the AI and blasted off into space just shy of Mark 1500.
For a third game CK9, TH300, LoP and Highlander was again haunted by the mysterious BlueEarth. This time during a Last One Standing on Root Canal. LoP and Highlander got dealt the high grounds and was left to defend the Upper Left cliff formation from a joint coalition consisting of Green, Blue and Cyan forces commanded by TH300, BlueEarth and CK9 respectively.
Highlander, commanding the lone Eden colony on the field and defending the bottom part of the cliff, was quickly and effectively sealed off by Green forces. On the other end LoP was fighting off the combined forces of TH300 and CK9. With EMP Missiles flying everywhere, it was hard to tell who had the upper hand as forces was being build and destroyed in a high tempo.
Unfortunately, the battle was cut short by a disconnect and subsequent dropping by the junior player of the match.
Edit: The fourth an final game took place in DangerZone with CK9, TH300 and Highlander in the field as Plymouth, Eden and Eden respectively. Due to a lack of ore, annihilation of AI took some time, but was completed never the less. Failure of the Evacuation Transport with the children to show up, caused us to reinvade the AI mainbase, to try to capture an Evacuation Transport stationed there. Luckily CK9 could bring his spiders to along for the task. Luckily enough, that was the Evac. Trans. we were looking for and shortly thereafter we all had a new home among the stars.
The evenings gueststars on IRC included: Flashy, dembones, Kelvin, gpgarretboast and _A_. -In the end BlueEarth also made a first time visit to IRC.
In any case, thanks to all who showed up and/or played!
