So who goes first in a given round attacker or defender, since if HUKS die in 1 hit that will be a pretty huge advantage for someone.

What about HUK's for 350? Wouldn't that be an option Bit?

Another question I have is how can we make diplomats "messaging" faster? Its hard to plan strategy when communications are so sssslllllloooowwww, (spanning turns)...

neither. Attacks are done in a random order, but destruction doesn't take place until the end of the round. Everything that enters gets a chance to shoot.

Yeah, that's semi-intentional. When I automate this game (That's my long-term goal) I may do something to make it faster, but for this run, you're stuck with one message per turn.

No.

If you want, you can come up with some excuse about how they interfere with shipping and would prevent you from getting your taxes. Yeah, lets go with that.

My goal is to automate this whole thing and set it up on a server so that I can play, too. Therefore, I'm not adding anything new until this is tested and the code written.
