Then I will clear the one Jenny will colonise. Jenny, let me know which one, and when you need the job done. Thanks for the offer but I don't want anyone suiciding their fleets on my behalf. I'm aware that I got Tyrant's isle very cheap and others lost a lot. I'll take on 2:60:9 as that's the one Patton suggests has to be taken out second. My fleet of 220 LWS should take out his 170LWS. Of course we don't know if he'll fleetsave or put all his sts on at the last moment. So if I need any help after the first attack, I'll be sure to ask. My fleets are all about 18 hrs away but my colo ship will only take 7 hrs.

Can you time it to hit at around the same time as we are planning to hit (2:69:14) (19/2/2007 13:00 CET)? Those two are the ones that could move stoners around and it would be great if he didn't have an easy choice on where to put them.
If you can't we can possibly push it to a little later that day (about an hour later)...

So, that's (2:69:14) and (2:60:9) - theoretically - taken care of. Natmus, Skulkrinbait and Tomthebuffalo have volunteered, so you better coordinate something for (2:68:25) - (2:69:4) - (2:60:3)

I'm still volunteering to clear an isle, so another can colonise it. Marc? Anyone else in ocean 2? Anyone?

Damn, too far for me, 18 hrs by colony ship.
If nobody else volunteers I will have a go though.

I have 1 isle near this area of ocean 2. It has no fleet, only troops. I have no collo ship as of the present moment and I will not be attacking LP regardless of how stupid he has been. A very good freind he is. Sorry.

I can colonize 2:69:14 if desired, yes, but unless it's indeed mostly cleared I'm not mounting a major offensive against it as I'm stretched rather thin with my recent rapid expansion in my home grid, giving more priority to garrisons, buildup and colonyships instead of fleet or cat expansion.
And yes, the island more or less nearby is an ex-Tyrant colony, Henning.

So maybe we should just stick with 2 isles then. 4 would be mean and he is a friend of Nemesis and fair play to him, he does have very good defences . We'll probably lose out taking just two but our reputation has to be maintained. I take the point that BigBlue should really have had better defences but the whole point of a reputation for taking back islands or at the very least scorched earth is that you can leave islands relatively undefended and be confident that nobody will attack them. What do you all think?

Well, I think that is a good idea. Seems more fairer than going after everything he's got.

I concur. The response seems appropriate to the initial action.
And then we should encourage all members to remember to look after their defenses. Most know about building soldiers, mainly spears, 24/7, but some might still have missed it.

I have a coloship and a few fleets, albeit small-ish fleets ready for action. I can take a precleared isle, or I can clear a small one and colo it. Its all good
