It has been 10 years since the Invaders have arrived on the scene, and the Far Side has finally entered into a state of "peace".

The battlelines have been drawn thusly:



The original landscape, so you can compare:

Well, actually I envision the POT is using it as a barrier right now. Since POT does not want to fight a war on multiple fronts.

Tufor seems content on staying in the Dead Zone, so POT is slowly expanding into Krebiz space.

I am going to talk to Eaglepreacher once his galactic battle is over and discuss what is happening in the universe.

Will keep you posted.

I find the Aquarian- Orgon Reservation equvilelent to the Navijo -Hopi situation in the south west. The only reason it works there is the indians are more civalized than the united scum that stuck them there together.As for the Mechad (We don't see no stinkin borders)We build and expand in all directions as our resorces allow.

When they removed Sigry III from our universe to theirs.


Have you ever played against a J'xar deck? then you wouldn't ask such a question. ;)

Did someone say J'xar deck... :)

[smiles evilly]

I'm not a very competitive player but even I can see that they would be pretty tough. I know they are in duels, against Lobo, while he's eating... and kind'a distracted.

:(

I have never played aginst any Deck. I realize they have alot of fire power but I thought they were a minor empire and getting alot of their cards (Especialy the ones from invaders) I thought nigh on impossible.

they are a major empire, and its not that they have a lot of firepower, it is more that they are very, very hard to destroy.

We finally got the small swarming ship formula right. After trying with carriers and Clydons, etc.

You fire at their biggest ships, and out pops a reaction card (Damage Control Team) to save the ship, they then transport the card back to one of their small ships, and take the entire stack back into their hand (transport and all). They save their ship without expending a card to do it.

They can also play silly tricks with the Temporal Engineer.

They are probably one of the strongest empires in the game. Definately in the top 3.

I have played the J'xar a fair amount against Lobo and I almost always win when I play them. They can easily abuse anything with a 'comes into play ability'. Things like, Time Assault Team, Temporal Engineer, etc...

I'm curious what they other 2 races in Geko's top 3 are... though one of them is likely the Geko.

 

Maybe Council of Six?

No, I actually do not list Council of Six, since they are a promo card. Why does everybody think that they are so powerful?

In no particular order:

Mechad (w/ Tranoan support)
Scorpead (nobody, but nobody, beats them in sheer raw firepower)
Gekonauak
J'Xar
CCN (simply because most defensive cards will not work against them)

I think your list overlooks Zeds. I built a Zed deck with Garshain and Lone
Wolf Indirigans, lots of multipurpose phasers, etc. An S10 Zed Battleship
with a Phaser Bold system and an Extreme Phaser Refit is pretty fearsome.

Just my 2 cents.

I think I might have missed Aqaraan truthfully.

Tarac Projectors would be formidable.
