After a week of being chased by some tough, tough bugs (state machines, matrix math, don’t ask…) I decided to pluck a strawberry, so to speak, and see how it tasted. I put in a version of CW1/CW3 style collectors to test how they would work. Now, they are different in that they don’t insta-deploy. They fill out their soylent area over time. That has some interesting game play consequences.

Anyway, here’s a couple screen shots. One of an empire being born, and the other of imminent death as two mice gnaw at the vine.
