Just found this game and binged your play through. Hope you keep playing this!

PUPPY CAM! This is a must!

Artemis Torpedoes and Viper missiles are a good pick I find. Copperheads can cover for other missiles. Also the Macross missiles (it has like a 40 pack per magazine) can cover for heavy rail rounds and nuclear torpedoes once you have them. They swamp most PD systems one to one. Railguns are great for forcing DV burns and covering for nuclear strikes. Battlecruisers with a nuclear missile battery and three light rail cannons is a viable kill ship for even Mothership scale forces with backup.

Hoping the space ship vote fails, I get the funny, and this is a really interesting play through and the space ship venture will just side track. not to be a min maxer, and just a few turns to get earth in order and get even a few decent space techs to get ships being able to back and forth between the earth and the moon. A marine delivery force is worth while.

Good game fun to watch hope continue with this.

"oh you aren't playing this game good" oh come on let the dude have fun without being a grump

Don't forget to go to ground a bit, you are playing a game of intrigue poker while showing your hand. It is no wonder your agents are begin subverted, everyone can see what they are doing all the time. Just saying, taking a turn off hurts, but so does having subverted agents.

Really annoying that the game just forced atrocities on you like that. First one was unpleasant but gave options the second one was just bull. :(
