Share pictures of your games!
« on: March 18, 2013, 12:05:18 pm »
You know, sometimes I want to share my stories, but frankly am too lazy to type up an AAR.

So I'll take shortcuts and post pictures that, with just a little narrative, tends to explain the cool things about my games.

I invite others to share pictures, so we can learn new things.
Life is short. Have fun.

In this not to subtle game, both me and the ai are using nenzul younglings as hammers toward each other. The result is a game where I broke 75k deaths before 5 hours. What is particularly humorous as that when our fireflys attack each other; our fireflys tend to cause chain reactions of death, meaning after some combat you get a few bursts of lightning which accelerate, until a bright, almost sun like ball of light occurs that vaporizes everything around it.
Life is short. Have fun.

I love the smell of stellar-ignition in the morning.

Ah crud. I forgot to nominate the Neinzul fireflies and the saboteur in the latest nerf polls...
Oh well, there's always next time. :)

Sorry for the sort of image dump.


Warhead turning a whole wave into a most satisfying dust cloud


Getting 242 sentinel frigates in a wave is not a happy occasion


Before the shredder nerf, in a defender game. This wasn't even the highest I've ever had them, I once had 2000 operating off of one homeworld, normal caps.


More shredders, this time in a multiplayer game.


Stuff stuff tractor turrets stuff


Fun with graphics mods

I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

There only 764 ships on the AI homeworld, this should be easy enough.

That AI appears upset.  Very upset.

He probably had an ATI card.

Huehuehuehue


It was originally a practical joke on a friend of mine who used to detest ponies (ironically, he's a fanatical brony now, go figure  ::) ) wherein he was coming to my place for a LAN party, and since I knew he would be using my desktop for AI War (he didn't have a laptop at the time) I went in and switched out one of the textures to little Rarity there. He was not amused. I never bothered to to change it out until the update with all the new planets came out and replaced my custom stuff.
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.
