Game:  F04 "Free For All"            Points Earned: 0

Turn: 1   Impulse: SOP due:  GAME OVER

Current Ship: Federation Police Cutter      Status: Intact (unfortunately)

 Bonus(es): None

This was my first fleet built using my new doctrine for Free For all Games.  To review:

1) No matter how powerful, SC 4 ships die fast.  Invest as few points in them as possible.  

2) X-ships rock.  Make your SC 3 ship an X-ship.

3) Never be the first to attack an intact ship of your size class or larger.  Be the second. (There are occasional exceptions.  If you are facing a ship that is extremely weak for its size class, consider unloading on it)

4) Fire opportunities occur almost every turn.  Take ships which can capitalize on this.  The corollary to this lesson: Plasma torps (with the possible exception of X-plasma) suck.

My fleet for the abortive F04 game reflected these lessons:  SC4: Fed Pol (no refits)  SC3: Frax CX, SC2: Tholian NDN

This game ran 8 impulses before folding under combined Moderator fatigue from running this game and F03 at once.
