G.R.O.S.S. communication thread.

Cringe in fear do gooders. The G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy alienS) empire is now formed. In less than an hour we have jumped 95 other Pacifist Doo Gooder victim empires and lept into 40th out of 135 ranked.

We are an evil empire bent on controlling everything and showing all the other empires out there who's boss. US. Are you listening Euro-"Oh lets let everyone be a senator and give em a vote doo gooder democracy alliance?" We come for you.

For a limited time, (untill I decide otherwise) 5 Pure Evil games, (or just impressing me with your game evilness) submitted will get you a Senatorship. Later, being the evil empire pyramid scheme we are, it will take 10. Of course, being the evil empire we are, that gives you no benefits, no pay, but all the alien carnage you crave most.

Now we do realize that sometimes, you just have to fake being good. You sometimes just have to infiltrate that pacifist party. We understand. But we aren't a kinder gentler empire and don't let their pacifism go to your head. And just sometimes, you gotta let the Aliens live (where else would you find slaves for the heavy metal lava mines?)

In the future, we shall update each other in the empire via this thread, brag of our conquests, drink blood wine, and generally just poke fun (creatively and humorously) at those players whom we find to be too goody goodyish.

Our mottos.

G.R.O.S.S. Where being good is merely a temporary strategy.

Just win baby.

Here's your ration of skin you do gooder wimp Drengin slime. Now get back to work

EBZeroMatrix you have been made a senator.

I repeat. Cringe in fear, we come for you.

But of course. Any G.R.O.S.S. fountain would have to spew booze. It's a requirement.

I'm tryin to get another game in. It's going slowly, however.

It was a glorious strike! With a G.R.O.S.S. freighter as a decoy, the Evil and Rum forces converged for what appeared to be an easy kill. BOOM!!! The Survey Ship of Doom crashed through a hollow asteroid from behind the Evil formation and launched a relentless phaser barrage. Simultaneously, the swiftest raiding ships in the G.R.O.S.S. armada raced in behind the Rum formation and let loose on their engines. Caught off guard, the Evil and Rum ships accelerated towards each other. SCREEEAAA-KABOOM-BOOM-BOOM!!! Torn metal plates hurtled in all directions trailing untamed energy bursts. Massive starships flipped end over end as their crews struggled to launch their escape pods. The Doom pulled away from the carnage and awaited the return of smaller pirate ships, cargo holds filled to capacity with the spoils.

"Onwards to CSF space! Onwards to glory!"

and as the survivors try and make sense of the chaos and mount some sort of cohesion, their comms and vids phase with static. Suddenly the G.R.O.S.S logo appears and a pirate song is broadcasted to all....

I logged another 21k maso tiny. Probably could have been more, but I want to at least log *1* alliance victory. My "ally" (the Arceans) only had 1 world, but they did find the precursor "slowly win" thingy - after we allied! They were still losers, though, and kept dragging me into wars with I was entirely prepared for. At least i was able to guarrantee some trade income at the end.

Few comments/highlights: Have I mentioned how much I like Anti-matter missiles? Creativity = worthless. Lucky +50% (Universalists + Luck trait) = worthless... found exactly 1 Ranger. The Vor found a precursor artificat that turned their homeworld into Class 30! Luckily for me, I had already battered them into a shadow of their former glory, making peace only because it garnered me 6 techs. Built my first Avatar ever (actually, finished the one the Vor were working on). Have I mentioned how much I like Anti-matter missiles? On a tiny map, we got the "expanded sensors" random event, and I had Eyes of the Universe... my homeworld starbase could see everything on the map, let alone my ships moving about! We also got the "everybody researches really really fast (thinking machines)" event... arms race went into overdrive!

Oh, and in true pirate fashion, my absolute favorite tactic: let the other races batter down someone's defenses (usually the minor races first), then sweep in with a Battlecruiser (or the Survey Ship of Doom!, if it got a weapons upgrade) to kill a last colony ship or two and capture the world with a lowly transport! Let them build and lose the battleships and dreadnoughts... my soldiers will do the rest, gaining me worlds and snatching the prize from the enemy at the same time! :HOT:

I'm the one. I know the truth about the Geektrix.
But I see you've made EBZ your source on altarian incursions. Nice.

LMAO It depends on who it is. One of em, I just culture bomb. The I-league, I do the same as you. The others I usually just go smack.

evil is good aslong as you arent a vampire slave

Yes, that's why we're the best empire going.

Evil is no fun if there isn't a profit in it.
Come to think of it neither is being good, or neutral.

Been there and been converted. I once was a goody two shoes, thrying to be nice.. choosing the good and neutral option untill I realized being good was so damn expensive and evil pays so much better (plus I find that evil brew or brew brewed by evil is so much stronger than that good crap)

My only highlight of the day was this demon I met
'before you stands a demon guarding a gate. He stands 20' tall. It has huge arms and a massive belly sagging down to its knees, hiding its gender. It looks at you grins and says 'Hey A-hole.. you arnt getting through punk' and draws a line in the sand to emphasize its point.'
so its not exact but it is was so funny! :D

hmm double post better make use of it.

From experience the drinks of good and evil
Good = Weak wine and ale
Evil = strong wine and ale

Did you know the best way to befriend an evil demon is with nachos, 1000 proof magiked ale, and football!

Another huge area of space is free of alien puke. My first victims were the Drengin. The C’noids and the Scotties had ‘em surrounded and left ‘em with just one planet. Those space apes were so pathetic, I just had to put ‘em out of their misery. Punked 'em with a lone battle cruiser and a couple combat transports. I handed the Drengin homeworld over to the Alexians, but those bums got run over by the Torians. Good thing my trade was cranking by then. The Scotties went for the vulnerable new Torian planet and it just so happened I had an invasion fleet waiting right next to the lone Scotty planet. An amazing coincidence that I had a death knight and two combat transports handy, wasn’t it? The Altarians started to falter in a war against the Torians (the strongest civilization) and the Arceans (the second strongest empire) so I helped out the freaks with three terror stars. No more Altarians, no more complaining. Then things started to drag on and on with everyone loving my Evilness (it was my trade actually). I decided to end the game with a single nasty order. One alpha strike of terror stars to go!
