Is it this new combat system or what?
A colony with no defences other than a level 20 stone wall, killed half my bloody fleet. I targetted the stone wall too.
Calculator gave me 96% chance of success, should have sent more LWs etc.

This is my colonisation a few minutes later:
No troops/fleet, and level 17 stone wall.

Seems like pretty standard results to me. A level 20 wall has a strength of around 4000 points, and will take out a lot of hardware on it's own.

But don't tell everyone, oh how good it feels to be smashing Grovers walls down, even though he quit and I too more losses than expected and did less damage than I hoped.
So it didnt feel that good at all really.
;D

Yeah, stone walls aren't as crap as people think. That didn't take much. I noticed that he'd lost his main isle; where did confirmation that he'd quit come from? I would guess that we haven't seen the last of Andrew McCann though. This server is still new; it wouldn't take much time, if you colonise at Grover speed, to start a new account and get back into the game in some distant ocean.

That was another flaw in the Grover script then?
Grover v3.4.5 will have a patch for that I expect.

Word is that he has something going on in real life, and it has nothing to do with IK as such. Just that he doesn't have time for it at all, and he has turned his .uk account over to halko.

do you think its a scare tactic or are they really coming for the island? I_know_kungfu is a friend of someone here. Try some diplomacy.

Hypnotikwhotsit is getting less aggressive and more arguing. That must be a good sign.
Though they still claim that isle for Phoenix. Where did this "I claim isle x:xx:xx" from? Do they expect everybody to pick those things up by empathy?
