This looks grim, 3 enemy ships have disrupters and drones the other has PPD and plasma. That is a good group, good long range and plenty of seekers.

What do I get - a right hodge podge, not 2 ships with similar weapons, and 3 of my ships are only light cruisers!

That of course will just make my forth coming victory so much more yummy

Now, I need to blow the virtual dust off of my ships and my brain and figure out what to do...

Ok, my positions are in, I am ready to blow stuff up!

I'm likely to be a bit slower in getting in orders, at least in the lead up to christmas.

But if you are in a hurry to blow stuff up, you will find a big red button under a safety cap on the captains chair, its labeled '<garble> destruct', sounds a pretty blow up type of thing, why don't you give it a go.

Heh, Since when was my ship called Jupiter!

I thought the 'ship with no name' was much more enigmatic.

I've been busy with family/christmas stuff, and expect to remain that way until after christmas.

Apolgies for any delays, but I'm unlikely to be putting time into this until sometime next week after Xmas is out the way.
