The challenge for October: Get the highest **SINGLE** upgrade. It could be hull, it could be observation--it's up to you to make that choice. Tie-breakers will be based on your next highest upgrade. Starting values for Cannon & Radar do not count towards your total. Discuss!

I think this could be far more interesting than last month.

There wasn't much choice in last month's challenge. You had to upgrade everything or else you would lose cost-effectiveness. This one gives you a lot more leeway.

Do you upgrade only hull and try to be impenetrable, thus allowing you to farm all you want? Do you go for a paper-thin ship with a ton of cannons, hoping to catch everyone else with gold? Since the possibility of a tie is a lot higher, you also have to consider your second and third highest upgrades as well. Cannons+Crew? Cannons+Hull? Ship+Radar? Who knows... :-D

yeah, this is a tough one...

I think I'll have to go back to my very first month of the new game to try that strategy again...hmmm
