“2 Blodge SideStep Gutters (with the help of a dwindling number of other rats - 4 in the end, I believe) ward off an 8 turn drive by simply standing in the way. I really, really liked that. Esp. the last 3 -4 turns of the second they did an outstanding job.

2 notes:
- one- turners are lame ;-)
- hiring a star after agreeing to the game is completely legal, no doubt. But lame ;-)

Now, "Culture Ships" is tied for the longest running team in coach history with 43 (together with the retired "Praise the Fallen"). One more game and they´ll have the record all by themselves. This is quite an achievement, considering they´ve been almost retired 3 games ago and are still in a rebuilding phase ... letting go of those nigglers and replacing them is no easy feat with the bashing they receive every game.

3 new skills after the game including the rookie gutter, no ageing. 60k in money and rising FF. And a Win. Really nothing to complain about.”
