What do you think

Okay,
This is a quiz, I thought would be fun to see what the results are.

You are in a medium galaxy with abundant of everything and very high research, the only way to win is conquest, The difficulty is SUICIDAL  , all AI are on incredible   and every one decides to gang up on you  . What do you do?

At this point just taking any and all opponents planets as fast as possible is what I would do, though the situation as you describe it is pretty bleak. Assumedly you've tried to get peace with as many as possible and that's failed. If not then do so quickly.

This also points out the value of having convenient save games so you could possibly back up to before everyone was pissed off at you and this time not do whatever it was that pissed them off to begin with.

It's worthwhile to try to fight your way out of it first though. It's amazing how well you can do sometimes, concentrate on the weakest, run away from the strongest. Remember you don't have to keep them from taking your planets, you only have to take theirs faster than they take yours. Good Luck, but these dire situations can also turn out to be some of the best games you'll have.

For some reason, I'm reminded of Dennis Hopper's famous line in "Speed":

"Pop quiz, hotshot. There's a bomb on a bus. Once the bus goes 50 miles an hour, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50, it blows up. What do you do? What do you do?"

I'd calm down by playing Space Rangers 2 for a while, then start a new GC2 game at a lower difficulty level. It's better for the ole blood pressure, you know. heh.

I think I'll go with the first reply and see what happens. It's still saved. I can go do what most of you say. I could duke it out, or just play a new game. I'm thinking I'll duke it out. If I lose. I'll die fighting.

That's the spirit. Even if (or when) you lose, situations like this are good learning experiences, you might even surprise yourself and win.
