This morning one of my O12 isles, Kidholm, turned red. The attack turned out to come from O24, one of Cyberglitch's 3 isles, Valhalla (24:12:3)
I quickly sent out scouts, and the isle turned out to be reasonably lightly defended, and I dispacthed a clearing fleet and two colo fleets with the chance of a fleetsteal.
Before my clearing fleet hit, he launched a second colony fleet at another of my isles. Good for me, less defenders and more potential fleetsteal.
The isle was cleared, and my first colony ship arrived successfully. Less than a minute later, the second attack was equally successfull.
Waste of a perfectly good colo boat, perhaps, but the two fleet steals makes up for it:
and
The attack on Kidholm will lose a bit as I can't get all defenders off the isle, and there's a wall level 20 to get over, but the attack on Flengholm should experience minimal losses, as I have no defenses or wall on it.
Not bad, even if I hope the colony attempts fail so I can reuse the colo boats on another of Cyberglitch's isles.
