@Prolifco In Diplo ??? What ??? Are you giving away your ships ???? Never do that myself ... I give them LAZERS up the tail-pipes ...
Kinda like the Aztecs .. Live as a king for a year ... THEN: Well, you know what's coming ...
No Civ would SELL a StarBase !!!! It is just plain DUMB. Period.
Oh, now I get it ... The dopey tech updates are funny ???? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ... NOT ...
Starship Carriers !!!!! WOW, just like StarCraft ???? Even in MOO2 they were just about ... ...WORTHLESS !!!!! As for designing and naming my own ships ??? I LOVE that part of the game ... How can you auto-name: "Man-o-Wart" ????
The "Gifted AI" They build a nice planet ... Which I INVADE and all that world .. Is a GIFT to me !!!!!! Gee thanks ...
Sign up here dudes !!! Get a free zero-g FPS Xperience (Total Recall ? ) ... and ... Then, I WILL SHIP YOU TO THE WAR FRONT !!!!!!!! A lota folks gotta die in a planet invasion ...
As well as "crappy techs", I find the dopey AI ... ... LOVES - 100bc or even 10 influence points !!!
The Drengs are ugly, dumb and evil ... NEVER ally with them ... I trade (or even give) them crappy techs ... ... to keep them happy until ... I INVADE and kick thier butts ...
And I am sure the bugs do NOT like Terrans ... Watt about DDT ????? Think the Thalans want a face full of THAT ???
Wow, you really read that stuff ...??? But, you are CORRECT !!!!!!!!!!!!!! The tech descrips are ... Dumber than "Forrest Gump" Thank Yosh for the mouse click ...
The mini-map is your BEST friend ... Check out all the options ... The auto-pilot function shows ship movements ... BUT, the moves are executed after a one turn wait IF .. You issue no other orders ... ... can be a good thing if you change your mind alot ... ...(and I do !!) ... And, yes the goofy "All, (or some) ships head to corner left" ...is sum kinda bug ... ( ver 1.1whatever)
Is the Auto Pilot option on the mini-map enabled ?? It is a toggle so you click it to switch states ... This can happen on new turns where all your ships head for the far left corner of the map ... ???? ...
Yeah, just like "Lion King" and the circle of life ... WOW
And not that brite either ... In my last game they surrendereded to the ... .... TORIANS ... thier hated enemy (gave em da best offa??) And the Drengs had a GREAT fleet - ALL weapons techs ... Beam-Missle-Guns, and even good Def techs !!!! All those ships lost ... (good for me) ... The Torians bluffed them with Spin Center thingy ...
And them Drengs are predictable ... ALWAYS - Weapons, Ships, Soldering ... ... and a WEAK econ ... no matter the level.
What in the universe is a Dreng ??? The nose/mouth/snout looks like something from "Planet of the Apes" That forehead is Klingon ... And them lizard-eyes are Narn-like ...
wouls = would Top Secret TA code ... Heheheheheh
This is the AI SMART !!!!!!! As a human opponet I can tell ya ... I wouls NEVER sell you anything ... Not for your mom, pop or sis ... You have a BAD add+itude !!!!!!!
Well, I'll be a toasted Terran ...
This is a good point ... I see the AI ally with each other ... BUT NOT with ME !!!!! I HAVE to ally with them .... Will keep an eye on this one ...
If your subjects do not get happy fast ... Then load thier butts on transports and ship them off ... ... to distant worlds to die for war and glory !!!!! Oops, that just slipped out ... Maybe they want null-grav entertainment ?????
I like them same topics over and over and over, and over and over again ang again and again and again ... ... it fells just like pressing "Turn" ... again and again Hehehehehehehe
I lost my job ... My wife, the kids and the cats are gone ... I will go get them back after a few more TURNS ... .... PROMISE !!!!!
