With all the stuff and modeartion going on over there, I don't think I could get that sorted out on my own tonight.

Let's see here... Veratex, Bernside, Anvas, and Vork are now in Dreden Rebellion control (Stornik should be soon, once Azdara can get the time to post). I'll go gather fleet numbers so you can update them...

Very helpful, thanks. Just a couple of questions:

  1. Are the ships listed for Plute shown twice, once for him and once for Jimbob? I didn't think Jim had three Titans. 😉
  2. Do you (or anyone else) also happen to have similar info for the Aliens, Carno, and Rak? I know there have been some huge, controversial battles with many casualties, but I've rather lost track of what and where. I believe the HC currently controls Kaujathat and Pax, with both of our fleets in Pax, however beyond that I'm swimming upstream. 😉

Sure, anytime.

1- Jimbob started the game with three Titans. He temporarily gave Plute one of them.
2- Heh, I have no major details. All I know is that Carno's fleet retreated from Selica, and he is now positioned in HC-occupied Pax (Selica was taken back by the aliens). The jumpgate is also occupied by the HC.

Current Fleet Numbers:

5th Alien Warfleet
2 Carriers
(one Black Dragon Ipvicus' Flagship)
3 Battlecruisers (one lightly damaged, another moderately)
2 Heavy Cruisers
1 Cruiser
4 Destroyers
5 Gunboats
5 Heavy Fighters
24 Interceptors

7th HC Fleet
1 Enterprise-Class Battlecruiser
1 Freedom-Class Cruiser
1 Skyhawk-Class Carrier
2 Destroyer M7s
1 Skyblade Frigate
2 Tigershark Gunships (both light damage)
58 Stingrays
41 Swordfish
18 Skates
42 Devil Rays

Not sure what Rak's numbers are...

K, that helps.

On Jimbob, my numbers show that Azdara started the game with three, Jim 2. Besides, didn't he get wiped out at Verdica? I know he lost all his Titans there.

Can I have one of my cruisers back? I mean I should at least come out of the battle a little better off than carno, after all I did suprise him and force his retreat. Despite what you said about carving losses from both sides to make it even, I think you misunderstood something because according to you I lost 2 out of 3 of my cruisers to a retreating fleet and still have greater losses than Carn if you add it up. I see the fairness in bumping up my fighter losses, and I understand your frustration at the nitpicking. But can you understand my frustration after watching my well excecuted suprise attack turn from a numerical and tactical victory, to a short lived phyric victory, all because of one act of hypocracy from a sore loser.

Eh, I happened to read the post where Ipvicus attacked, since it was short, and I would tend to agree with giving him at least one cruiser back, Skyblade, if I understand that battle at all correctly (and the original posts weren't that complex).

Thanks Mac, you have gone a long way to making my day better, and I have no more complaints.

We shifted numbers during the game. Azdara transferred one of his Titans to Jimbob's command following the battle of Verdica. Believe me, the numbers are correct. Do some research if you prefer. 😉

I'm not really "back". But I can now load these BFS III topics.

(I assume Asriel or cadet told you I could load the EV Board, but neither of the III topics. Weird. Actually, I could load pages 1 & 2 of the story and page 1 of Discussion. After two days of random attempts -- with the same problem -- I alerted Asriel.)

Now: I just tried again. Page three loaded (!). And I learned that ZMT launched an attack on me at Pollux (Ouch!).

My trouble is ... I am swamped with other work. I "may" steal enough time to read all the Battle and Discussion posts later today.

If and Until ... carry on, Asriel. (Go Pirates!)

I hope my absence did not hurt the flow of the story. Sorry for any inconvenience.

(I still don't know why the topic would not load -- and now it does???? Oh well...)

I don't believe so... That would just make things much more complicated.

I have a request for eveyone involved in this RPG(heh)

I have an EV webboard ( (url="http://"http://evforums.n3.net/")http://evforums.n3.net/(/url) ) that loads a lot faster then the EV website. I would like to transfur the rpg over to it. Check the site out at least. Join and post stuff up. I need more members.

P.S. My fleet is in the alien home world(system) and if you look at my last post you will see what my ship is.

Looks like I beat you. 😛

Jager: We intend on keeping the RPGs here. It actually took me forever to load that link fo yours, and besides, RPGs posted here at the EV forums are much more likely to get additional attention and members.

Azdara: Do you want to void my post or yours? That way, either my fleet or yours meets at Stornik (and my post also didn't cause any casualties to my fleet).

Also, a little note... Any battle posts are required to have your fleet stats within them. Posts that lack frequent fleet updates make matters much more confusing...

You can take the battle, after all, you posted first. 🙂 I know about the casualites thing, I was just having HUGE copy/paste problems, kept forgetting to paste things before copying something else etc., got really ticked off, and decided not to worry about it this once. Well, now that we're using your post, mine doesn't matter anyways. 😛

Sure, I'd be glad to come by and post if I get the chance...

Azdara: Ok then, sounds good. Let's just say the 36th is now stationary in the Stornik system along with the 101st (feel free to edit your post and change the content if you like).

Heh, I can understand the hardships of copy / paste... Can get somewhat annoying.
