- Pete, did you shoot one of my blobs mate? It's just I split one into two and one of them has disappeared. Can't see anything in the game log or on the scanner.

- No I didn't shoot or even see a blob on my turn. Sounds buggy.

- He was on top of the other, odd because when they split they were definitely separate. Anyway get ready to be blobiviezied.

- Yes they should split! At least it didn't vanish.

- That's fine, not much else you can do but form a square old fashioned style and let them come at you. Most effective way. Shame you were in blue and not red. :)

- I think the humans need to hunt the blobs. If the victory conditions were changed so the humans had to kill every blob to win but the blobs could win by hiding out until the last turn. It might encourage a hunt and the blobs could set up ambushes and bait. It needs some purpose or objective injected. I still think areas of mist would make the map more interesting.

- Yes, either increase the number of blobs or as you say change the victory conditions so the blobs have to be hunted. Or maybe make blobs that firea kind of acid or like an octopus releases a cloud of black ink that it can hide in.

- I like all your idas. Any or even all of them would be great. The maps big enough to take some crazy new things. Black ink I like it.

- 'Ideas' I meant.

- Thanks glad you like them. I do think they are worthy of consideration. Either an addition to the blobs, say the acid firing, and/or perhaps a new lifeform a tentacled being who tentacles can stretch several squares and also able to spray a black mist to hide within. Maybe I'm getting a little carried away now. :)

- I think you can be as imaginative as you like with this mission and still end up with a good tactical game. First time I was attacked by the aliens in Alien Hordes was a freaky experience. I reckon the freakier the better!
