The Fellowship Halls (Fellowship of the Ring Empire Thread)

Welcome to the Fellowship of the Ring Empire Thread - The Sequel. :)

The old FotR thread was getting too big and it was taking too long to load the thread, thus this new one.

Since this is the first post, I will reproduce some of the more important links for our Empire.

The FotR Website : http://www.angelfire.com/rings/fellowshipgalciv

The FotR Metaverse Empire Page : http://www.galciv.com/metaverse/empires.asp?id=329 (use this page to join)

A big welcome to all from Ray the Wanderer.
Enjoy your stay here at the Fellowship Halls. :)

I haven't used H5O's writer. My mods have been super-simple so far so I've just done them by hand. All I've done is change the occasional number in files that already exist.

Everyone says it's easy to use, though, so it probably is.

Well, that makes sense! I thought I needed H50's program to make mods!

No you don't, you can even use a plain text editor and you can create your own mods, Galciv Writer it is rather easier if you take the time to learn how to use it.

Pretty fun game I'm having. I waged a limited war against the Arceans who had about 7 systems. Captured 2, peaced out and now using my superior influence to flip a couple of them.

I agree with Sirian that AIs should never sell their starbases (nor their systems). The influence resource SB sold to me by the Arceans was basically their death warrant.

Just wrapped up my game with the PQ +15% pick. It seems that an alignment of 31 is evil. So "neutral" is at most 35-50 and maybe even 40-50.

I'll probably be submitting my game today. Should bump our empire score up a bit too considering I'm submitting into a new monthly block.

I'm ten years into my game with +100% luck. So far nothing "lucky" has happened, but I've gotten a LOT of random morality events.

I probably won't have time to finish this game until the weekend, though, so someone else is going to get game #1000.

I think my next game will be with a large creativity bonus.

Forgot that I was playing a Medium game rather than a Large one. Much smaller overall point increase than I expected. Ah well, I'll play another one soon.

It's all set up for someone to take the Fellowship's 1000th game. :)

Just downloaded a whole bunch of mods especially from our Jedi and Evil friends.

Very interesting trying to grapple with the new things that are appearing, nuclear power plants, tourism, etc. :)

Time for me to call it a night. Hopefully, the beta will be up when I'm up tomorrow.

Busy morning at work for me today.

My Huge/Maso is close to being done, so it would be great to get #1000! Of course, it will be great for anybody to get it!

Altarian Prophecy is up! Maybe I will find time to play tonight... I'll try anyway.

I missed it initially too, Smeagol. It's a new line right under the usual Galciv game line (1.13) in the Games tab.

Have you updated your SDC? You need to go to Settings to "Check for SDC updates on startup".

Have you clicked "Show pre-released versions"?

If you still can't see it, maybe you should reinstall your SDC?
