That's a good argument, but I think knute is claiming more that you CAN"T point to any evidence for evolution (an emperical question) rather then saying evolution is impossible based on what we know (a theortical one), altough no doubt there is some of the latter as well. People who argue the later , tend to ramble about the 2nd law of thermodynamics.... <TD class="mb-Body-Quote-T

Personally i would prefer it if the 'family names' (lasers, plasma etc) all had the same attack potential. So all lasers had attack 1, all phasers has attack 2... Currently I can't remember which one is which. Moddable of course ... Of course, even better if it here was some sort of encyopedia in the game, as hinted ......

Again let me draw attention to the hypocricy at work with people like Knute, he claims it all about the evidence, and no evidence counts except if it happens before his eyes (everything else is just 'observations')? Does he then have a problem with God? Or the big bang theory? or even jurors convicting people on other evidence other than eye witness accounts? <TD class="mb-Body-Quote

there is post after post, pointing out everything from my lack of understanding, to my spelling errors, and even boasts of 'victory' as if the conclusions reached in this forum will shut the doors to collages across the world and God will be declared a myth by the U.N tommorow and creation will become the next Holy grail. My dear friend you are

Okay enough. On the behalf of the pro-evolution side, I declare victory, we can start sending the troops home now.

I'm working on my own guide. I have being deliberately trying different strategies/advise I see posted on the forum even though i disagree with (multiple farms???) , to ensure that my advise is not limited by only my own particular playing style. My aim is to provide a set of general strategies that are generally proven to work over a wide range of settings because they are efficient and predictions based on AI play (how to predict when they will declare war!) and to add a different

I sometimes shake my head when I read posts in this forum. Some don't understand what they are responding to and others assume you are taking pot shots at the game. p22 is not saying the tech tree is not improved, he is saying some of the costs for advanced buildings are out of line based on what they provide. He is also not saying that the building is not worth it in some

Oh, and saying "Darwinists" isn't really relevant. Darwin's ideas are outdated quite a while. They weren't accurate, just famous. Quoting Darwin on the specifics of evolution is like quoting an ancient Greek on the mechanics of gravity. "Rocks fall since the Earth is their home". . I suspect you are overstating this by a *lot*. The current und

Oh and Richrf , their is no "why" to the universe. If it could care, it wouldn't. I disagree with that, but that's another debate.

This follows the way style of analysis as for [url=https://forums.galciv2.com/?ForumID=346&AID=116303] beam weapons [/url] and [url=https://forums.galciv2.com/?ForumID=346&AID=116313] mass drivers [/url] But applied to weapons. To recap, I compare defenses within each of it's own lines. Newer tech defenses should have higher Defend/size ratios, given that they cost more monetary speaking as well as the research points invested. So a old tech armor should have a lower defense/s

As usual, the anti-science guys bail out when the evidence gets overwhelming. Most people opposed to evolution, don't really understand evolution, or reasons why scientists (many of whom believe in God) believe evolution happened. It's not just looking at small changes in fruit flies and fossils. Anti evolutionists who don't real

There seems to be two issues here. 1) Is the relatively inefficency of advanced buildings, so for the same social cost you can buiild 2 lower tech buildings instead of 1 higher tech building, and the overall result is more production., altough you sacrifice one more tile. Assume this is fixed, and Manufacturing sectors produce 30 production compared to 2x enhanced factories = 28. 2) I still wouldn't quickly research all the way to Manufacturing sectors, because a

he answered nothing, he faild to cite any case of one species evolving into another one. there was alot of flash and thunder and if you read it it looked impressive, what with citing 'new' bacteria created and what not, but that bacteria was still just a bacteria it didnt evolve into a house plant. http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-speciatio

Let me make some general points first before giveing you links to the evidence I'm talking about.. im sure all sides in this debate have been here before. i know i have, and i know how it ends. No offense knute, but I have debated with creationists who know way more about the subject of evolution then what you are exhibiting

It's an interesting article, kind of like how people calculate which weapons are best using dmg/size ratio. In theory, using your figures building 2 enhanced factories produces more production then 1 manfacturing center at the same social production cost, (not sure about the maintenance cost though) but this assumes you are willing to spare 2 tiles to do it. E.g Most people build at least 2 factories and fill the rest with whatever they need, if you just stay at factories

I believe they called it "yet unnamed fantasy game" Anyway, I hope it will be real MoM2 and not another "GalCiv is not MoO" thing, I'm sure they will say that on these forums, while benefiting from game mags, reviewers and users calling them the successor of MOM/ MOO etc... Hypocrites.

Actually, has anyone else tried the NEW demo for HoMM5? That's actually got a lot of the old MoM elements - the grid-style turn-based combat, heroes, etc. It doesn't have the "central wizard" factor so much, but otherwise it's very much like MoM, writ 3-D. How is that different from all the past HOMMs? Or haven't you played any of them? HOMM
