[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="3" id="3189707"]Umm.. It lasts 90 seconds, plus Orkies, Antoraks, and Vorastras can open a new gate at any time.[/quote] Oops my bad about the time thing. I guess thats a more than decent tactic then. I'll be curious to see if he doesn't just continue to go through the planets though. He tends to play more aggressive than keeping his ships safe.

Thyself
It definately was his main fleet, but my fleet is usually a few jumps away from his border while he's already inside my core planets. Its doubtful he'd pull back either, since the phase stabilizer only lasts 30 seconds. Arg... I guess I'm just wishing for some kind of miracle cure to keep them vasari out of my homeworlds when in reality I should just guess he's going right for home...
Me and my buddies have been going through a few sins games with eachother and in the last several games he's been using the Kostura Cannon's ability to create instant phase stabilization nodes on the targeted planet to wipe out my home planets (or as in the case of occupational victory, win the game). I've yet to figure out a good counter to this besides delving deep into his territory and destroying the thing or keep every single one of my planets really well defended. 
No you'll be fine. I go on trips all the time with my laptop. Don't have any games on it but there's never been an issue.
