Take it from me, wars get costly really quick. Even more so if you end up taking over someone who's just as large and as tough as you.

If you want to see how they will work during wartime set cell 70B on resources to war to get your Anti-matter consumption. If you have inactive ships you plan to use during a war you should place them active to see what your peak usage would be. Wars by design (and historical precendent) are very resource intensive. You might want to plan accordingly.
I tried that, Excel tells me the cell is protected and therefore Read-Only.

It might be. The other method is to just double your consumption since that is all it does.

Won't it be hilarious if the Hur'q attack right after a major war... well, probably not.

No, that would be funny. But we already have someone attacking so I think we're good for now.

Turns are out now. I will probably write news tonight/tomorrow.

BTW, your new friends are now live on the board. Not that they will have much to say to all of you. But if you talk, they can hear you. They might even get to hear you scream. :happydevil:

Yeah, it's kinda scary... I have no idea what they are doing, thank goodness for cannon fodder between me and them.
