Relocate Came Back

The relocate button re-appeared on the outposts and this opened up the game on a whole new level. Now, once per week, we can move our base to another sector... specifically we can move our base next to a friends base in the current sector or in another sector.

Sector raids!! I was still building my barge fleets when relocate came back, but I moved my base to a new sector immediately. When I showed up in sector 426 I wasted no time.

"Why did you hit my fleet, Bondai!!!?"
It's a battle game, dude. I wanted what you had mined for me.

"OH great! We have another in-sector hitter"
...uhoh, I have competition, I'd better go sink the rest of the miners in the sector before someone beats me to it. Thanks for the head's up.

Three hours later there was a dozen ships sitting outside my base. The local big boys didn't like that Bondai was hitting miners. Tracy didn't like that I didn't care that she didn't like it.

"Hope you're comfortable in the bubble, Bondai... you'll be there forever"
Yep, it's comfortable. It keeps the carebears out. (scheduled downtime in 10 minutes)

Minutes after the game locked up due to a scheduled downtime, I refreshed the page and sent my thud barges out to meet the neighbors. Tracy didn't log back in fast enough. Every fleet she owned was tasting salt water when she got back on. The other two players were online, and tried to click attack on me a couple times, but then silently went back to their own bases as Tracy's FF fleets were sent home back to back.

"You're a coward!! Hitting me while I was offline... I was having connection issues"
You're a pathetic pirate to leave your fleets outside my base. Don't address me again till you remove some clothes.
She relocated an hour later. This sector is gonna be fun.
