Vania did send in 12 sotl to the battle. Not sure if he wasn't informed of the no reinforcements deal or not.
At this point I have no idea who removed the NAP offer. I personally had no intention of doing anything to make this unfair. We left several hundred ships out of the battle and both Dewan and I had not made ship at all in around a day. The idea was to have a more even battle. It didn't end up that way. I see jdub has deleted so any nap offer at this point isn't going to change much. I will put one up for the others to take.

The 12 sotl and another 56 or 58 (don't remember exact number) ships that landed for you guys the same tick.  I'm not here to make a big deal out of anything.....it's just irritating when you guys were at a big advantage anyway and obviously didn't need to sent them.  It is what it is.....just thought it was pretty low.  You guys had a good fleet design, ours was lacking.  I had never played Ji before, and highly underestimated the hull / shield disadvantage.

Anyway - thanks for the fights.  I tried to be a stand up guy the whole galaxy, it's just unfortunate that there was someone from your alliance that obviously wasn't doing the same.

Seems I can't even go asleep for 2 hours without happening. Sorry Denizen.

No worries.  I think we all know who pulled the BS.  I'm not gonna lose any sleep over the deal....it's just a game afterall.

Round two between Hierarchy & CTOMAHA!

Both alliances weighed in around 15.5mil tons.
Both alliances are CAP heavy.
CTOMAHA has a tech advantage with three of four members that we can tell.
We suspect they have a stronger O/P per tick econ than us but don't know by how much.
We can produce ships faster (well our Zeeb can) for reinforcements in the battle.
We think we have a wider CAP line than CTOMAHA and higher hull/shields...
We think again CTOMAHA will badly out gun us in the fire power department...

CTOMAHA we presume is targeting CAPs from the start, and Never Retreat.
Hierarchy set all fleets to target CAPs and Never Retreat...

So, for those who are about to die (ourselves... lol), we salute you!

Sita warped 713 shots this first tick of battle too!

Looks like they targeted CAPs from the start too... and we're all staying on CAPs too.

Hmmm... they did not get any big reinforcements... we've got constant reinforcements coming in of hull soakers and combat ships due in the first 12 ticks of battle.  Shields on two of the enemy's fleets are looking thin, ours on all of our fleets are still holding... for probably another tick.  Mostly it our hull/shield soakers that are taking the majority of the beating.

BAM!  Now were getting somewhere with the ore!!  But where in the world are the enemies big reinforcements?  I saw three of them go up in tech levels on the leadership boards in the last day... so maybe they did not burn their labs like most of us already did... and maybe the economic difference between our alliances is not so big in O/P as I thought it was...

Keeping my combat fleet on Standard and my allies on CAPs.  There are many CAPs out there to shoot for a good while still.

Our suicide (hull/shield soakers) are starting to die in big numbers and fortuanely sparing our combat ships the brunt of the nasty incoming fire power.  Our enemy has EVA LACs from their Oomari but I don't think they are as cost effective or in as great numbers as we've got for our alliance.

We were definitely thinking our chances of winning this were slim at best.  But Denial's fleet is already devistated and Calisto's is right behind him... J.R.Bob's is following Calisto but Pycku's is holding pretty strong over all (expectedfor a Turian but he has good builds too).  But a single Turian can't carry the day on his own.

Maintaining our orders...

Our enemy is fighting bravely despite some VERY UGLY odds and still reinforcing with HECs and see some LACs arriving now too.  But it is way too late to turn this tide.  Turian CAPs are now dying in numbers with the Oomari, the Sirnef & Ji CAPs are mostly dead or soon to be dead.

Changing orders to target SotL for my three allies and myself to CAPs for a tick or two now.  Going to strip the shields on the SotL and get them damaged then switch all fleets to standard.

And that's it folks!  No way did any of us predict this... no way at all!!  I'm guessing our enemy did not expect this too.  I've got my guesses as to how this ran the way it did but that is just it.
***************************************
Strategies/Tactics that I think made a difference.  Going with hull/shield soakers (suicide LACs) instead of EVA LACs that require much more reseach to make effective.  EVA LACs cost more to produce (that only Kreel & Oomari can effectively build) than basic suicide LACs that any race can produce.  The typical Suicide LAC soaks up around 1k damage before its dead.  The typical Oomari EVA LAC soaks up about 400-500 damage and avoids about 200-300 damage by the time it dies.  And the EVA LAC costs about 40-50% more to make than the Suicide LAC.

So you can absorb more damage with a Suicide LAC than an EVA LAC and less cost and spend more on combat ships.  And then have a much larger hull/shield level than an enemy that goes with just EVAs for support.

I heard the enemy sirnef burned his labs by mistake too early and never got a good successful battle to earn salvage to turn to research to make his ships really tough and lethal.  If that is true... ouch...

Ji's are hard to make tough with the 80% malus to hull/shield so they often get hammered hard early in battle unless they can make a REALLY wide main combat class line.  I suspect that the enemy Ji had that problem... lower hull/shield tech and the CAP line was not wide enough to disperse the incoming fire power per ship to a smaller and more managable level.

I also saw on the Oomari, Sirnef and Ji ships a tendancy to trade shield and sensor slots for weapons or weapons and hull.  Less shields means more damage gets to the hull faster and drops all the other ship ratings faster and makes those shihps a higher priority target for an enemy keeping one of four fleets on standard targeting orders.

A tough Turian in a situation like this ends up being too tough to be an attractive target for incoming shots so most of the shots ten to hit the non Turian allies until there are not enough non Turian allies to take the majority of the damage for the Turian.  Then when there are fewer total tagets in the class ship being targeted.  The Turian then takes the majority of the punishment and dies last.

In short, despite our planning our alliance fleet, individual fleets and ship designs with a specific purpose... we all believe we got incredibly lucky, not once but twice with our enemy!

And we salute you all for sticking to your guns until the end in a very bloody battle!

  An incredible battle with over 40mil tons on both sides!!  And both sides being ripped to shreds all the way to the bitter end... lol... FANTASTIC!   

Leaving for surgery soon so will try to do a write up tonight after I'm back although it may take a while with one arm/hand... lol... an maybe depending on the challenge of typing, not quite be as verbose as most of my battle reports.   

Outstanding job to all alliances in the battle from both sides!  It is so rare to have such a large battle in a 1500 system standard galaxy and be so darn close!!   

[mavolence]

Happy birthday. Wish we could have brought home a victory for it. Great battle to all. Thanks for the fireworks. I got smoked.

Everyone from all sides but the zeeb is toast... lol

[templariusz]

I still have my 102 uniques and some scout cover but pretty much no ships left that can deal any real damage.

[tez]

Get well soon Mav!

[mavolence]

Entering the ring weighing in at about 41mil tons is Research Shows with:
Employee, a tchno master Sirnef
Derwan, a hard hitting slippery Oomari
Vania, a brutal bruiser of a Gorgoth
Hes, a quick and sneaky gut puncher of an Oomari

vs THREE alliances!

Hierarchy:  at about 22mil tons... but 2mil tons will be late for the battle
Arson, the undying Zeeb
Ultron, the living shield wall of a Turian
Sita, the warping Queen of the Octopi/Oomari
Mavolence, the Ore/Crack addicts of not so anonymous

CTOMAHA:  at about 11 mil tons
Grrr(of my name is too long to spell) ... Pycku, the Spiky Shield from Hell, of a Turian
Calisto, the deadly dancer of death of a Ji
J.R.Bob, the squiggly Oomari of death
Denial, the tech challenged Sirnef

Triple:  at about 11mil tons
FishMaster, the Sirnef of "I can have over 200 tech levels too!"
Fisher, of the mighty school of Oomari piranhas
Kiso, the Gorgoth killing machine
 
I finished a battle 9 ticks earlier with New Utopia (1 vs 2) where thier Turian had SSs merged with his fleet... LOTS of them... lol.
I lost about 1.3mil tons in new LBS/MBS/HBS... and had over 2mil tons badly damaged by the time the battle ended with a NAP.

So the start tonage between the two sides was pretty even.

Research Shows is mostly SotL heavy with lots of EVA coverage.

The enemies of RS are all VERY CAP heavy and full of sacraficial light CAPs.

And so it begins!!

Tick one shows that this will be a long and bloody battle... possibly coming down to which side can reinforce more and faster...
Enen though RS has nearly a 200k fire power advantage, they will have to keep that and burn down reinforcing enemy ships fast enough so as not to be slowly overwhelmed.
********************************
Lost the recent events for battle ticks 2, 3 & 4.
RS stayed on CAPs and all fighting them stayed on SotL.
RS's enemies continued to reinforce like mad with Suicide LACs and combat CAPs.
RS kept the firepower advantage and RS's enemies kept the hull advantage.

RS is maintaining the fire power advantage but their enemies are just barely keeping ahead in hull with more reinforcements...
This is solid proof of just how bloody this battle will be for both sides!
Lower tech fleets are suffering more... the Zeeb & Turian fleets are faring the best for now.

Now RS is in plenty of trouble... they are still landing more fire power than their enemies but the reinforcements are just a bit more than what RS has been able to handle at the moment.
Both sides have lost over 1 mil tons each and it looks like a lot more will be lost from both sides before this is over!

Not good.  Still the permanently destroyed tonnage from both sides is staggering!
