Argh for the love of god, Normal text size, grammar and spelling. I don't even know what you were trying to say! And I dont want to risk re-reading it.

I think it's one of those posts where the poster is trying to get a laugh but people don't realise until the 100th reply. I can't see anyone (especially on a turn-based game forum) really believing that Achilles is spelt "akilles" etc...

see, it wasn't a joke Definately a broken Universal translator

The trick to that mission is to make sure your ships always counter the AI's in weapons and defence. And build "Oribtal Fleet Managers" in all your planets to allow your defensive ships to fight as a fleet.

If the Achilles heel mission is the one I think it is (you are attacking a Dread Lord planet?) I just made a ton of small ships with big weapons and military starbases to make them stronger.

The Dreadlords get 1 - 2 ships at a time, but you can have many more. They can take out 1-2 ships at a time, but you can take them out. You can easily make 12 ships and keep killing them as you send in wave after wave of troop transports (to kill all of 10 guys)
