The Untouchables win the Stellar Kings crown by defeating team M.A.S.T.E.R. on update 66
Predator reports:
The game was finished on update 66 as the Voyager dealt team M.A.S.T.E.R. the final lethal blow by nuking out the idle Stellarworld. It was a close and tense game up to about update 28 or so, when The Untouchables gained the upper hand in the region north of Dirtroad - Roadkill, which lead to the deadly assault that finished off Roadrunner. At that point, the game was pretty well all over, as Eikoor was losing ground fast to Voyager.

As far as most valuable player of the game, I would have to say it was Sir Dagonet, for his survival against several serious assaults in the center of the map. His survival was crucial to The Untouchables winning the game.

Cannibalism erupts as STELLARWORLD scores team M.A.S.T.E.R.'s second nuke of the match
From a chaotic battlefield, Predator reports:
“Its a real mess out here! The battle was reaching its peak about 7 updates ago as The Untouchables continued to advance their front lines. Then all of a sudden we were not spotting the enemy anymore, which was real odd. The next up Skudder surrendered, and there were Misfit colony ships loaded with hungry little misfits floating around all over the galaxy, it was pure chaos. We were really confused for an update or so.

As Misfit continued to grow, Voyager finished off Eikoor in the west, posting The Untouchable flag on Eikoor's home world.

Then in another bizarre turn of events, Misfit surrendered, leaving the mighty STELLARWORLD, the lone ranger from Texas, to take the ultimate stand against the relentless assault of 5 mighty Untouchable empires. I have to hand it to STELLAR, he is mighty brave.

STELLARWORLD scored the next nuke by taking over the remains of Misfit, his first nuke of the game, and a well deserved one. I just hope that we can get to the other M.A.S.T.E.R. empires' home worlds before STELLARWORLD does, it will be an uphill battle to say the least from here on for The Untouchables, and for crying out loud, there is no telling what those STELLAR forces might do if they get there first.

Roadrunner gets run over
Sir Dagonet reports:
Today is the day that Roadrunner was forced to leave the current game. The Untouchables are now sitting by the campfire enjoying BBQ Roadrunner and singing songs by the light of the stars. You ever hear BigB sing? Trust me, it is not a sound you ever wanna hear again. The game continues now as a 5 on 4......

The Stellar Crusaders vs The Underdogs
From the battlefield, Kaws22 reports:
In a practice game on the Promethius Server featuring The Stellar Crusaders vs The Underdogs . Stars began to shine brightly for The Underdogs on update 9. Simultaneously Private Eye and Gatekeeper nuked Backstabber and MastrHavoc out of the game. Turns out GateKeeper got a lucky nuke of Backstabber because he caught him in the middle of a pop trick with a science ship. The games 6-4 now and looking very promising for The Underdogs.

Cheers!!

Action heats up on the front
From the battlefield, Predator reports:
At this point, the game is basically playing out on 2 fronts: on the western front its Voyager vs Eikoor, and on the eastern front its Roadrunner/Misfit/Skudder/Stellarworld vs BigB/Sir Dagonet/Aztec Empire/Predator. The eastern front saw a lot of action the last few updates, as the Untouchables showed up in full force, nuking 3 Roadrunner builders and pushing the front further into enemy territory, while exploring the Roadrunner homeworld.

On the western front, Voyager nuked an Eikoor builder, giving him a 17 to 13 econ lead.

Relg nuked out in Stellar Kings challenge match
From the battlefield, Predator reports:
The center of action continued to be the Sir Dagonet & Relg region of space. Combined forces of Voyager, Sir Dagonet and Aztec Empire continued to assault Relg's homeworld. Realizing that he had no hope, Relg made one last effort to nuke out Sir Dagonet with Eikoor's help, but BigB and Predator defended as the Untouchables put on their shades to watch the Relg homeworld light up.

This makes the game now a 5 vs 5 game, with tensions now building on the Sir Dagonet / Roadrunner border. Meanwhile Relg's demise leaves Eikoor cut off to the west.

HeLLSpawN nuked out in Stellar Kings practice game
From the battlefield, Damascus reports:
Cap'n Dan weaves his wonderful magic, and on the 14th update Hellspawn goes nova. The Crusaders now have a 6 on 5 edge, and the game starts to look very ominous for the Marauders.

The Stellar Crusaders are currently playing the IRC Marauders in a practice game. The Stellar Crusaders are next in line to fight for the Stellar Kings crown.

From the battlefield, Eikoor reports:
Smurf was doomed from the start. Surrounded by three enemies he vainly tried to establish a builder south of his HW that was nuked right after becoming a builder. A small fleet from STELLARWORLD followed by ships from Misfit and Skudder were his final downfall. Constant pressure from Misfit and Skudder, and a small amount of help from STELLARWORLD allowed them time to overbuild without letting the pressure on Smurfs to let up, was too much to overcome and Smurf's people had no choice but to succumb to their fate.

May 30, 2001
After 17 updates of fighting, Smurfs of the team "The Untouchables" has been obliterated by the deadly Skudder , giving team "M.A.S.T.E.R." a 6 to 5 empire lead. The game remains focused around the center of the map, where Sir Dagonet just survived a second onslaught of his homeworld, this time by a 17 ship Roadrunner fleet. However, trouble is brewing for Relg.

May 13, 2001
Added a new menu called " Teams ", listing all the challengers in order. There will be some great matches coming up.

May 9, 2001
The first challenge has officially begun. As of the start of the game, the opinion poll is favouring the Yahoo team 26-13, and perhaps after seeing Skudder for the first time in the game section , I can see why.

May 7, 2001
The teams have been set for the first challenge game. Representing the IRC chatroom are Aztec Empire, BigB, Predator, Sir Dagonet, Smurfs & Voyager. Representing the Yahoo Club are Eikoor, Misfit, Relg, Roadrunner, Skudder & Stellarworld. The game will commence shortly, so stay tuned, given the history, this promises to be a bloody one.

May 2, 2001
A game section has been added to track ongoing game progress along with game comments and other related information.
