Illusions: do you have eyes on his 6000 size fleet?
Let's see how well this posts:

Next target at M34:37:45:11 in 1:20
I'm going to bed after this one. I'll leave my fleet in orbit to make him come fight me off it.
Fuzzy, if you could, leave one corvette behind to hold occupation.
No problem Wraith. Go ahead and pillage/plunder the next target, I'll be logged off and in bed before you reach it.
Last night as I lay in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought, “Where the hell is my ceiling?"

Attacker conquered the base
Attacker got 1750 credits for pillaging defender's
base.
That's the last one. I'll be parking my fleet at his base to force him to come and fight it off. I look forward to the angry messages in the morning.
Oh, and I'm currently occupying M34:37:00:10. If anyone wants to take over occupation for the hourly credits, just send a small fleet there and tell me when you'll be paying attention tomorrow morning so I can abandon and you can pick it up. There's some pretty good salvage at all three of the planets I've blasted too - feel free to grab some.
(M34:37:45:11) Has incoming from old guildmate [R~A] Fury^2 of 423 Fighters and 202 Frigates. I don't know if its to help defend him or attack him.
. . .
Should I move my fleet, or just sit around and see what happens?
See what happens.
Hope is the denial of reality
Nah, I've decided that's a bad idea. I can do more damage if I strike him the moment he lands. I'll try that.
Good idea. Give him a minute to see if he attacks Random.
Hope is the denial of reality
I can't give him any seconds, or he'll pull away his frigates and greatly decrease my damage potential.

Return to fleet menu
And that's the last fleet action of note.
I bled off too many fighters and bombers in my assaults on Random to have won that one. I'm happy with the results. It'll probably take Fury a couple days to rebuild his fleet, and he didn't get much out of it.
Hopefully others will take advantage of it. Not sure how many of our people are going to continue playing.
Hope is the denial of reality
There is something very fishy about a person from the guild he left bailing him out.
Hope is the denial of reality
I thought the same thing too, although I doubt its a multi-account, as it would make sense to sign in and start rebuilding, which Random hasn't done, so its likely either a friend, someone who wasn't going to attack Wraith and instead opportunistically attack Random for leaving, or [R~A] and [Derp] are allied.
I'm not quite sure now that I look at the name of Fury's fleet that was attacked. Its still boggling because he moved in recyclers, and you can't transfer credits, so my main guess is that he struck opportunistically. He probably figured Wraith was there to pillage and salvage debris, and Fury wants the salvage, but he's not occupying.
Random's reaction appears to be he's re-amassing a fleet from multiple locations here at "4" M34:47:74:10

I have 16k credits to spend and would like to spend it on war and possibly also defense. Tips on good toys and suitable targets welcome
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Can't help, I'm going out tomorrow. All my outposts have quite strong defensive emplacements, I've downgraded all their economic buildings to zero so people won't get squat from pillaging them and I can't build up a bank balance for them to raid *which is what they've been doing with Loki's and Wiggin's planets since they quit* and tomorrow when I finish the eight heavy cruisers I used to burn off my bank balance I'm going to crush one of Kai's ridiculously defended worlds, siphon the debris, dump it into research and disband what's left of my fleet. That way people like Kai won't be able to get any benefit off the planets I've controlled.
