Default Spot Open in Star Trek: Final Frontier

Alas, Atrocities has had to withdraw from the game for RL reasons and his spot (The Dominion) is open. We are at turn 66, things are just getting interesting, and I am unaware of his position. Based on the ingame correspondance, I believe he was doing well. Hurry and grab this one as too many turns of non-production can hurt (we are playing with the "no AI mod")

Bumping this one back up because we had another withdrawal from the game. The Cardassians are now looking for a new leader. They are in 8th place, but still a very playable (and still winnable) position. If interested, head on over and sign up.

The Cardassian Union needs YOU. That's right, YOU, the one over there who likes to do things his own way, the one who uses trickery to overcome defeat, the one who's afraid of nothing and will stop at nothing to gain a victory. Time is running out on these poor leaderless people. Step into that role and command an Empire worthy of your rule!

IIRC, it was the fact that larger drones could sweep an entire minefield, because they could have more than 300 hitpoints. Since mine warheads didn't stack in 1.67 (when the game was started), 1 drone with 301 total hit points would detonate all the mines and take no damage.

We have had another player drop out of this great game. Pity, Pity! The Q Continium is now available for anyone who wishes to be omnipotent! Are you a GOD?

About people dropping:

Atrocities dropped because he was in the hospital for over a week, unexpected admittance for stomach pain did not give him a chance to make game arrangements. He went in, and they admitted him. Then he spent the week in ICU.

I dropped because my job now has me out of town five or six days a week.

I think the game was going great, and really hated to drop. I hope that the game continues to run and that someone beats the **** out of the Borg for me.

It seems, no one can stand the Borgs, can we?
