I like the concept. I think theres a lot of potential here to expand on the idea. My strategy was to make allies with everyone, watch them destroy each other; and then destroy the remaining planets.

It would be nice if there was some indication as to how likely an alliance would be (or why it was denied) but other than that it was fun. A lot seems to depend on the random relationships at the start though."},{"author_name":"TimKaidem","author_uid":"25006","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 4:09am","epoch":1377576240,"text":"Guys, thank you very much for kind words!\r<br\/>And yeah, the Accept\/ Deny alliance is 50\/50 chance, it's totally random.

If the other planets are at peace with each other you will lose because you have to fight each one alone. Your ally should sometimes decide to join your war on another ally. Or a way to provoke war between other planets.
